SCARY TALES FOR HALLOWEEN

A writing contest for the 2nd Cycle of ESO

All the students from the 3rd and 4th ESO courses have a chance to win a prize by joining our writing contest.

===What do they have to do?

a) Just write a short story (the shorter, the better) connected in some way to the spirit (decorations with pumpkins, spells, fancy-dress parties, trick-or-treat visits…) and the frightening characters of Halloween: ghosts, vampires, witches, skeletons, spiders, scarecrows, zombies, black cats, etcetera.

b) Give the final draft to the English teacher (it is important to make sure that they write a title for the story in the beginning, and their full name and class group at the end).

===What are the rewards for participating?

Apart from extra points for the writing practice (which can help the students get better marks), both the best ‘scary tale’ written by a 3rd ESO student on the one hand, and by a 4th ESO student on the other, will be presented with a 15€ FNAC card (to buy some reading, informatics and music stuff). Besides, the two winning stories will be uploaded on the English blog of the school.

===Is there a deadline?

Yes, there is. The students must give their stories to the English teacher before Monday 14th October. There is little time left, so go ahead!!
