Win-An-Artist Contest

Each school will select one Club Amick book, and together, the children will produce a three page written review about the book, along with a visual that reflects the content of the book. A panel of three people will select three winning schools. Each winner will each receive a visit from Chad Solomon who will hold a half-day art workshop with the children.
 
A word about the artist:
Chad Solomon is a member of the Henvey Inlet, Ojibway First Nation in Ontario, Canada. He is the creator of “Adventures of Rabbit and Bear Paws” a comic series set in the 1750’s that features the hilarious antics of two brothers, Rabbit and Bear Paws. Using Traditional Native Teachings and humour, the stories are based on The Seven Fires Prophecies and the Seven Grandfathers.  For a peek at Chad’s work, please visit www.rabbitandbearpaws.com.

Rules

 
Submission must include the following:

  1. A three page written book review that includes: the title of the book, author and publisher; a summary of what the book is about; what you liked and what you learned; and how it connects to your community. You are welcome to include other information you think is important. PLEASE, be sure to include the name of the school and the community.
  2. A visual (no computer generated pictures or photographs, please!) that illustrates the content of the book and one of the ways it relates to the community. This can be in the form of a collage, poster, pictures, etc., as long as it is something drawn free hand by the children that shows their artistic talent and their understanding of the book. 

Submissions must be received no later than May 23, 2008, in order to announce the winner before the end of this school year.  Please send by mail only, to: “Win An Artist” Contest
