You could be the next Hometown Reporter!
ClassBrain is very excited to announce the Kit Kittredge® Hometown Reporter Competition in conjunction with Picturehouse.
You can become a published writer by putting together an article on your favorite places in your hometown or nearby city. Choose a location in your town or city, and follow our guidelines to write about what you find unique and interesting about it. You can write about a museum, park, amusement park, favorite restaurant, local festival, beach, or other location or event you think is noteworthy.
We will be publishing all of the well written articles that follow our guidelines in our State Reports section on ClassBrain.
If you are a teacher, and one of your students submits the 1st Place Hometown Reporter entry, we have a special award for your class.
