Twenty-five Teachers every semester will win a free classroom resource! Each semester, we choose 25 new students to publish at our online lessons directly at the world-famous WritingFix website. To have your students' writing considered, it can be posted below in the box underneath this posting. In November and May, we will select the 25 students whose writing impressed us the most, and if your student(s) is selected, you will be asked to choose from any of the NNWP Print Publications (http://www.unr.edu/educ/nnwp/publications.html) for us to send to your classroom.
Help us celebrate your writers.

By Betsy, 7th grade
I love you, Mom, the reddest.
I love you the color of sugary sweet Hawaiian Punch.
I love you the color of a deliciously juicy strawberry
on a cool summers day.
The color of a stop sign demanding attention,
The color of a fresh tulip just blooming,
The color of Jesus’ blood poured out for us,
I love you, Mom, the reddest.

By Ashton, 2nd Grade
I love you, Dad, the bluest.
I love you the color of the enormous sky that rains down to help plants grow.
I love you the color of the salty ocean that great white sharks live in.
I love you the color of delicious superman ice cream that turns my tongue bright blue.
The chirping bluebird in my tree.
The beautiful eyes of my baby brother, Camdon, who I couldn't live without.
The scrumptious icing that tastes really good.
I love you, Dad, the bluest.

By Jackson, 2nd Grade
I love you, Mom and Dad, the purplest.
I love you the color of Annie's jacket on the cover of one of my favorite books.
I love you the color of the lovely grapes that you pack in my lunch box.
I love you the color of Brett Farve's jersey that he wears on the football field.
The small orchids that blow in the wind.
The grape suckers that I get at the bank.
The spectacular fireworks that explode in the black sky at the beach on the Fourth of July.
I love you, Mom and Dad, the purplest.

By Austin, 2nd Grade
I love you, Daddy, the reddest.
I love you the color of the brightest flame from the hot sun.
I love you the color of scrumptious spaghetti sauce that fills my plate at dinner time.
I love you the color of a shiny fire engine that dashes down the street to put out a fire.
The blushed cheeks from embarrassment.
The brightest part of my heart.
The slimy ketchup on my salty french fries.
I love you, Daddy, the reddest.
