The Cause.
Elementary School Book Drive
I'm sure we all remember those really hard words on our spelling test when we were in elementary school. Whether it was 'Hamburger' or 'Simplicity', learning to read, spell, and write can be difficult, especially if you have little understanding of the language.
​
The profits for this tournament are going towards funding books for PreK through 4th grade, specifically books that are bilingual. By helping the (ESL)English as a Second Language students at OES(Opp Elementary School), we can hopefully get them interested in reading by offering a broad range of fiction and non-fiction books that both they and their parents can read.
Bilingual books are hard to find and often more expensive than English books, making it a rare resource to obtain. Bilingual books can help students connect their existing reading skills in their native language with English, making it easier to learn new words, word meaning, and sentence structure.
Interested in Donating?
If your are interested in a donation(can't play in the tournament), then that is okay! Using VENMO or PAYPAL, write down "ESL Book Donation" when it asks what it is for. Even a $1 will help!
