Whitworth University Writing Rally

The Writing Rally has been moved to spring for the 2011-12 Academic Year.
Please see the information bar on the right, or the printable brochure, for more details.

The Whitworth University Writing Rally is a family literacy initiative for students in pre-school through 6th grade. The event features a presentation by a well-known children's author, followed by a time for participants to work with area teachers or Whitworth education students to create an original illustrated book by hand or with a computer. The Writing Rally provides an opportunity for children to develop their reading and writing skills with assistance from a professional author and trained educators. Parents or guardians attend with their child for all aspects of the event to further promote literacy across the family.
