100 Word Challenge!
One Hundred Word Challenge
Welcome to 100 Word Challenge!
This is a special space for anyone under 16 who wants to share their creative writing. You can go and visit other blogs to see what others are writing about.
Each Friday I will post a prompt. That is something to get you thinking! It may be part of a sentence that has to be included or a picture to inspire you! It may be a few individual words that have to be used. If you want to take part in the challenge you have to write a post using the prompt and only 100 more words! We may be able to offer the occasional prize to those that we all really like!
You post it on your class blog as usual and when it has been moderated, you can then link it here using the linky below. You can link until the following Thursday. You can put a title and the URL for the post not the blog! If you’re not sure ask your teacher. If you don’t have a class blog, you can link straight here!
You can come back at any time and click on the other entries and leave comments.
As it is the first week, I will make it easy for you. The prompt is ‘The wind howled in the trees…’ It does not have to be at the beginning of your writing. It can be anywhere as long as it makes sense!
You only have another 100 words so think carefully of which you use. We want lots of creative pieces!
Let’s get writing!
Love the Wordle. Tagxedo’s another great place to make word pictures. Good luck with this effort!
Thank you so much! I was introduced to Tagxedo at a Teachmeet last eveing. It looks great! Will have a play!
What an exciting challenge! I will point my class towards this next week, and I’m sure we can rustle up a few things. It will be great to see what other schools do too.
It has been a brilliant response! I look forward to your entries in the coming weeks!
Great idea to encourage children to engage in a fun writing activity.
We’d be delighted if you could visit our class blogs and leave a few comments to encourage us!

Such a fantastic idea which promotes creative writing. Also with the children’s work being available for an audience to see, it adds purpose, which, in turn will enthuse children even more! An idea that I am going to try as a trainee teacher.
Brilliant! Make sure you pop back here to link up. That way you can get more people visiting your class blog!
Fantastico! So many lovely pieces of work! Such creative writing!
I love that you’re doing this! I totally love this! Brilliant, brilliant, bravo, bravo!
