If you haven't been keeping up on the challenges and activities that National Ambassador for Young People's Literature Jason Reynolds has had going on, you are really missing out. From creating your own award, to taking imaginary road trips and creating Tik Tok dances, Reynolds has a number of fun activities that get you thinking and writing about your "authentic" experience. 

Here is the video explaining the Tik Tok dance activity
