Contest Entry Checklist  2008

Every year, KEDT must eliminate entries from the competition because students did not follow the rules. Contest rules are explained in the Rules section of this website.

 Did you complete the requirements for entry?

 Before you put your contest entry in the mail, go through this checklist to make sure you’ve followed all of the contest rules. If you can put a checkmark by each item, you’re ready to submit your story to the Reading Rainbow 14th Annual Young Writers and Illustrators Contest!

 ___ I am the only author and illustrator of this story (no multi student stories will be accepted).

 ___ Each page of my story is on one side of the paper only.

 ___ Each page number of my story is written in pencil in the lower right hand corner of the back of each page.

 ___My story meets the minimum requirements for length and illustrations. (see Rules)

 ___ I have completed the entry form in full, and it has all the required signatures, (parent or guardian). 

 ___ I have included the entry form with my story and am now ready to put it all in the mail.
