Eighth grade students at Maumee Valley Country Day school are being recognized for their outstanding participation in the NANOWRIMO Challenge. November was National Novel Writing Month and the Maumee Valley students in Ms. Emily Green’s English class participated in the NANOWRIMO Challenge to write each day to complete a novel in one month. In completing this challenge, the eighth grade students collectively wrote 252,258 words during the month of November. In addition, 29 students “won” the challenge, meaning that Amazon will provide them with five printed copies of their novels free of charge.
