Enrichment Work

March 30: for this week's enrichment, you could write an essay to entry an FFA contest. Prizes are:
First place: $7,500
Second place: $5,000
Third place: $2,500

To enter, submit an essay of 1,000 words or less responding to the prompt (listed in the link) by April 20, 2020. If you'd like feedback from me on in, please share the google doc with me before April 13. (That will give you time to polish up after feedback from me.)

Here's the link: FFA Essay Contest

March 23: If you have finished your genre story and have edited it, I recommend starting a journal. It's a good way to reflect and quiet the mind. We'll regroup and share work once the state allows us to do graded work. Feel free to reach out at any time with questions or just to say hi. :)
