March is Be An Author Month, and we’re proud to be partnering with Book Creator to help literacy come alive for kids.
What is Be An Author Month?
March is synonymous with literacy – we’ve got National Reading Month, Listening Awareness Month, and even National March into Literacy Month! So let’s inspire our students to embrace their creativity, articulate their thoughts, and harness the strength of their voice.
Want to know how?
It’s all about being authentic. Kids love becoming authors – creating a book is a tangible thing that anyone can relate to. And when students know their work is going to be viewed beyond the classroom, they put in extra effort. So let’s turn your learners (and maybe even yourselves) into published authors through reading, writing, speaking, and listening activities across all subjects.
This year Be An Author Month is about Finding, Refining, and Recording your VOICE to share your amazing stories. There are multiple ways of sharing your voice – you can write, draw, code, film a video, record your voice – you decide. Let’s get creative and AppSmash together!
