    In preparation for an upcoming school visit from author Mac Barnett, ACCESS elementary students participated in a Cliffhanger Writing Contest. The contest was inspired by a video writing-prompt from Barnett, which challenged students to experiment with cliffhangers as a literary device to build suspense and leave readers wanting more. ACCESS students rose to the challenge and the contest judges were amazed by all the creative and exciting short stories that were submitted!

    One stand-out story was selected from each elementary grade level to receive the grand prize: A copy of the graphic novel First Cat in Space Ate Pizza by Mac Barnett, an invitation to serve on the Welcome Committee for the author visit, and the opportunity to share their writing with the school community. Congratulations to the four Suspense Masters: Tessa Willis (Grade 2), Bea Yang (Grade 3), River Starr (Grade 4), Lyndon Neufeld (Grade 5)!

    Please take a look at their submissions below.
