Write. Right. Write.

Jason Reynolds, author and current National Ambassador for Young People's Literature from the Library of Congress has put together this amazing video series "Write. Right. Rite."

Each video includes a prompt to encourage you to use your imagination.  The most current video is below, but you can see all previous and new videos by visiting the LOC Write Right Rite webpage. 


One of the previous videos was about writing a letter from your hero, that would be their response to a letter you wrote.  If you want, you are encouraged to share your WRR responses online with #WriteRightRite and Jason Reynolds shared out one of the responses he got from a kid named Lewis, who imagined what his hero Samuel L. Jackson would say to him.  Samuel L. Jackson saw it and replied.  I thought that was pretty darn exciting!

Either way, sharing your writing or not, these are some really fun and creative exercises to stretch your brain and imagination.  Give it a shot if you want!
