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

Today, Marcos and his friends are playing bottle caps in the neighborhood park. First, each one chooses a bottle cap. Some have caps decorated with colors and drawings. Then, they draw a circuit in the sand with a stick or with chalk. The circuit has curves, straights and sometimes even small ramps. The objective of the game is to move the bottle cap around the circuit with a flick of the finger, but without going off the path. This is fairly difficult, but the group of friends really enjoys it and he has fun playing.
