 ReadWorks is excited to announce the launch of its Earth Day 2024 Illustration Contest. This is the first ReadWorks hosted contest that is geared toward younger students from second grade through fifth grade. This initiative aims to inspire young minds with articles written by ReadWorks' longtime content partner, The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF). NFWF is dedicated to sustaining, restoring, and enhancing the nation’s fish, wildlife, plants, and habitats for current and future generations. This year, NFWF turns 40 and has highlighted 40 species for 40 years to celebrate!
The Earth Day 2024 Illustration Contest provides a platform for students to showcase their artistic talents while also fostering a connection to NFWF’s fun and interesting passages about saving the monarch butterfly, coral reefs, or flying mammals. The contest invites students to reflect on their reading by creating original illustrations that depict their imaginative portrayals of wildlife conservation. The Earth Day 2024 Illustration Contest is completely free, and open to all second through fifth-grade students, regardless of their artistic background or skill level. Entries will be judged based on creativity, originality, and adherence to the theme and facts of the suggested NFWF reading passages. Bonus if you find time to do the ReadWorks vocabulary and question sets! To participate, any teacher, parent, or guardian is invited to submit artwork on a child’s behalf electronically through the ReadWorks website between April 1 and April 26, 2024.
