Through the
Google Docs Blog I have learned that the
National Council of Teacher of English is looking for contributions to the
National Gallery of Writing. The accepted submissions will be displayed on October 20 as a part of the
National Day on Writing. Submissions to the National Gallery of Writing can be made individually or as a part of
local gallery.
Local galleries can be created by groups to organize their writing around a particular theme or topic. Any group can create a
local gallery as long as there is one "point" person to curate the gallery.
Applications for Education
Creating a local gallery for your class to contribute to the National Gallery of Writing could be a good way provide your students with an authentic audience for their work.
