Dear Valerie,
The teachers in the district program for Deaf/Hard of Hearing
students at Mark Twain and Chaparral Elementary Schools, in the
city of Albuquerque, would like to participate in your SignWriting
Literacy Project. We are a part of the Albuquerque Public School
District. We serve approximately 125 Deaf/Hard of Hearing students,
both at centralized district programs and at their neighborhood
schools.
Some of our teachers would like to introduce SignWriting to
their students. These teachers are interested in learning and
using SignWriting because they want to improve literacy skills
for the students in their classes. Each teacher has approximately
8 number of students who will be participating in the Literacy
Project.
We agree, as a group, to complete three Web Reports in return
for the SignWriting materials and technical support you donate
to us. We understand that this letter and all three reports will
become public information and will be posted to the SignWriting
Email List and posted on the SignWriting Web Site. You have our
full permission to use the information as needed.
Please send SignWriting materials for 6 teachers and 50 students.
Thank you for considering us for your project.
