Hello teachers and Peace Corps volunteers,
As we enter the final week of our competition, I have some exciting news -- the national organizers have finished collecting the prizes that winning students will receive!
1. National winners will receive:
- a certificate [from the US Embassy]
- a book about America/ American Literature [from the Embassy]
- a writing-related book [from English journal]
- a booklet of writing ideas [financed by American Councils]
- publication in The Kyiv Post [online and/or in print]
- publication in English journal
- publication on a dedicated IWO-Ukraine website
Oblast winners will receive:
- a certificate [from the US Embassy]
- a booklet of writing ideas [financed by American Councils]
- publication on a dedicated IWO-Ukraine website
Also, we've had some more schools join in the competition recently. In total, these are the schools/cities that are participating from our oblast: Lubny (Specialized English School), Myrgorod, Hadiach, Kremenchuk (Poltava Regional lyceum at the Kremenchuk Teacher's Training School), Khorol (5 schools), and Poltava (only the Pedagogical University is competing in Poltava, so their essays will be judged separately)
Finally, remember that Friday [February 25] is the last day for students to be writing their essays. Please email the winning essays to me by March 11.
As always, please ask me if you have any questions. Thank you for all you've already done to make this a successful project!
-Andrea Zimmerman
