Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- Hello Clara, are you going to gymnastics practice tonight? - Of course Martine! I never miss a session. Plus, last week, I managed to do my first backflip. The coach was so happy that she shouted very loudly. So, I want to carry on impressing her. - Well done Clara! I'm going to work on my floor routine because I'll take part in the next competition which will take place in two weeks. I must know my routine by heart because my competitors will be ready! - I'll be there to cheer you on!

I'll be right with you...
