Inauguration-Themed Writing Lesson and Contest

What would it be like to live in the White House?

Explore this intriguing question through the Letters From The White House Writing Contest which offers a fun way for you and your students to explore presidential life as a class. I recommend reading a story book together (or other age-appropriate reading material) to give some background and start the creative juices flowing. I think the final products could make a great bulletin board display, too.

The deadline is in February, so schedule time in your lesson plan book soon.
