The 100 Word Challenge

The 100 Word Challenge is a weekly writing challenge for children under 16 years of age. Children from all over the world take part every week!!

Every Wednesday, a new prompt is given on the 100 Word Challenge website – it could be a picture, a sentence or even just a word. You then have to write a piece using up to 100 words only.

Entries are published on the 100 Word Challenge website so other people can read your writing, and you can go and read other people’s entries too! Every week, the best posts are chosen to be in the Showcase.

The teachers will try to post the prompt on our blog every week. All you have to do is to post your writing on your class blog: remember, it must be 100 words MAXIMUM!

Tip: write your 100 word piece with Microsoft Word and use the word count tool to check how many words you’ve written. then copy and paste it into your j2webby page for the blog!
