Hey, Speak Out fans, want to win an Apple iPod? Then start
commenting and you may win the STUDENT VOICES IPOD GIVEAWAY!
Here’s how the giveaway works:
1. Comment on Speak Outs. Each comment constitutes an entry. So submitting
more comments improves your chance of winning. But for a comment to be valid,
you must include your name, your school’s name and your teacher’s name.
(We need to be able to contact you if you are a winner.)
2. Then, our Student Voices team will choose the top comments and judge them.
3. The highest-rated comment wins.
4. In the event of a tie, those submissions will be voted on again by the
Student Voices team.
5. So this is about quantity and quality. The more well-thought-out
comments you provide, the better your chance of winning!
When the giveaway ends, we will take all the entries and do the judging.
We will notify your teacher if you are the winner. So make sure you
include your name, your teacher’s name and your school’s name.
The winner will receive a new iPod Touch, and the runner-up
will receive a new iPod Nano.
May the best comment win!
