First there was the creative range of topics. As submissions rolled in — 2,223 by the deadline — we were happy to see students take on a variety of key emotional, intellectual and physical skills, including how to win an argument, fix a toilet, cope with anxiety, remember names and trip gracefully. But we were even more delighted to be introduced to a few offbeat skills we hadn’t previously realized were crucial, like how to do the worm, snowball-attack your sister, fight a kangaroo and “talk to your crush without sounding like a talking potato.” Our participants had fun. We know that because in their accompanying process statements they told us so. They liked coming up with topic ideas, and writing something for school in a format they’d never seen before. They even enjoyed finding and interviewing experts — a contest requirement that had seemed daunting at first to many, but turned out to be one of the most rewarding steps. [We hope you’ll enjoy the results as much as we have, and we encourage you to read the top 11 winning essays.](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn8ljrP0TyaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNC8wMi9sZWFybmluZy90aGUtd2lubmVycy1vZi1vdXItaG93LXRvLWNvbnRlc3QuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9sbl8yMDI0MDQwNSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTkzMzImbmw9dGhlLWxlYXJuaW5nLW5ldHdvcmsmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE2MjY2NyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZgXr0w9m_cJwJFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) Sincerely, The Learning Network RESOURCES FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS [[An illustration of a golden trophy with flexing human arms on either side.] Illustration by Radio](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRn8ljrP0TyaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wNC8wMi9sZWFybmluZy90aGUtd2lubmVycy1vZi1vdXItaG93LXRvLWNvbnRlc3QuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD01NSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9sbl8yMDI0MDQwNSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMTkzMzImbmw9dGhlLWxlYXJuaW5nLW5ldHdvcmsmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE2MjY2NyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZgXr0w9m_cJwJFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) [Contests The Winners of Our ‘How To’ Contest Over 2,200 teenagers submitted essays on how to do everything from fix a toilet to fight a kangaroo.
