Challenge will start June 1, 2021 and run until June 30th, 2021
All you need to do to sign up is to comment below with the language (or languages) you’re wanting to join with. Your journals will need to be posted to LangCorrect to count. This is just our community forum and not the main site.
These are your daily prompts. Feel free to adjust these as much or as little to your level as you need to. The goal is just to write, even if it just ONE sentence! So don’t stress yourself out! These are broken down to one journal a day (with one free day) but feel free to skip a day and write two on another if you’d like! Feel free to skip around what prompts you use for each day. We want you to write and have fun, not feel like it is a chore!
As some people have asked for more creative prompts, there are some days where there are two different prompt options given. You only need to complete ONE to count. Feel free to complete both if you have time and would like. (:
Clicking on the prompt will take you to a new journal on LangCorrect.
if you would like to be emailed the day before the challenge starts as a reminder, halfway through, and once towards the end, please PM me the email you would like me to send the reminders to. Your email will NOT be shared with anyone, I will be the only person to have your e-mail and only for the month of the challenge.
Day One
What did you want to grow up to be when you were a child?
Day Two
If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life, what would it be?

What is one thing you will never do again? Why?

Write a conversation between two characters. One is very polite, the other is very rude.

What are your plans for the weekend?
Day Twenty-Nine
What games did you enjoy playing as a child?

HOW TO GET YOUR JOURNALS COUNTED
Please create a language log and keep track of them in a singular post there. @vinaspa has done a great example here for the April 2021 challenge.
Feel free to screenshot your journals and put them on Instagram or Twitter! Make sure to tag us #langcorrect and mention us @langcorrect ! This will help others learn about LangCorrect.com and the challenge!
I’ll be checking roughly once/day to update the journal counts. Everyone should be able to post multiple links in one post. If you can’t, PM me and I will update your settings.
