Slice of Life Story Challenge

Day 15 of the March SOLSC

Welcome to Day 15 of the 9th Annual Slice of Life Story Challenge!  

If you’re sharing your students’ slice of life stories, please head over to the Classroom Challenge.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Many of you subscribe to Two Writing Teachers blog so that you receive the daily call for Slice of Life Stories (and our other content year round) straight to your inbox.  Over the last week, we have received emails from various Slicers stating that you did not receive the daily email.  We are not sure why this is happening, and we believe it may be a glitch within WordPress.  However, please know that the call for classroom Slices goes live every night at midnight, and the call for the individual challenge goes live at 12:01 AM.  Even if you do not receive the email, you can always head over to Two Writing Teachers to find the daily call.
