My Project

Within my English 2 and D.C. Comp 1 courses, I am always looking for new short stories and speeches for us to read and complete activities with.

In an English classroom, it is so important that students have access to a wide range of texts, both classic and moder, to learn how those texts play a role in our society.

By donating to this project, you are allowing students to explore hundreds of new texts-- from classics to modern literature! You are also allowing my students to have access to speeches that have changed the way our world works. This project will help me offer students new texts to explore and will even allow me to add more of these texts to our curriculum!
