HANDOUT #5 (Lesson 2.5)Activity: Good Warranty or not?
Note: This handout would be developed afterthe teacher has a sense of what types of
major purchases students are interested in making. If most are interested in purchasinga car, the materials inAll-Star 3 (p. 62-63) can be used. If students are interested intalking about other major purposes (e.g., telephone, television, washer), other warrantylanguage samples would be provided. A good source: http://www.squaretrade.com/tv-warranty.
The listening activity would also have to be adjusted if the class is not interested in carpurchases, with the teacher making a recording of an appropriate dialogue between L1speakers about another product.

HANDOUT #6: Reading (Gerunds) (Lesson 2.7.a)
Buying a Car
Purchasing a car can be an exciting experience or a frustrating one.
What makes the difference is being prepared. Knowing what you want in a
car is important. Answering these few questions can help:
Is buying a new car something you really want to do, or is getting a
used car OK with you?
Is getting good gas mileage important to you? Or is the style and
look of the car more important than the miles-per-gallon a car gets?
Do you plan on purchasing the car by getting a car loan? Or do youplan on paying in cash? If financing a car is in your future, understanding
how interest rates work is reallyimportant! Avoiding a high annual interest
rate can save a lot of money over the life of the loan!
Finally, how much will you pay for the car? How will you know if you
are getting a good deal? Consulting the car price calculatorat
www.edmunds.combefore starting to car shop will help you know how
much a car is worth. Knowing what car dealer actually paid for the car can
help you avoid getting ripped off!

HANDOUT #7 (Lesson 2.7.d)Game: Gerund Charades
The students are familiar with charades, so no written explanation isneeded. The following gerunds (related to money) are to be written on
slips of paper. A student pulls one out of the hat, and then has to act it outand get her group to guess what it is. If they do (and use the correct
gerund form), that team gets a point. (This process alternates betweengroups, ensuring that no student acts out more than one charade).
Or, if time permits, groups could themselves come up with gerunds that theother group could act out.
Spending money
Buying a car
Going to the bank
Cashing a check
Bouncing a check
Paying the bills
Returning a purchase
Shopping for groceries

HANDOUT #8 (b) : Bank Service Vocabulary Exercises(Less on 3.5)
Fill in each blank with one of the following banking vocabulary words:
statement bounced check online bankingchecking service charge overdraft
If you write a check for a larger amount of money than you have in your
_____________ account, the result will be a ____________________.
The official banking term for this is an __________________. This is not
just an unpleasant situation that uses up your time. It can cost you a lot of
money, because you will have to pay a __________________ , usually
around $30 per check! So it really does pay to read your bank
_____________ , because it lists how much money has come into your
account and what has been spent . Or you can double check on your
phone or computer, if you do ___________________________.

HANDOUT #9 (a), (b), (c) (Less on 3.7)
Identity Theft
Your identity is who you are. How can someone steal this?
They can do this by getting important information about you,
then pretending to be you. This can cause you lots of trouble.
If a thief finds out your name, address, birth date and Social
Security number, he or she may be able to pose as you. How
could thieves get this information?
They could steal your wallet, purse or mail. They could take
papers from your home. They could pose as someone who has a
right to ask you for this information (like a government worker).
Some even look in garbage bins for old credit card bills and other
papers. Then they can open bank accounts and get credit cards
in your name. Or they may get a phone or electricity. If they
dont pay their bills, it will hurt your credit rating.
Directions:Read twice. Read quickly the first time, looking for the main idea.Read again a second time, looking fordetails:
What are three ways does identity theft happen? What are three ways you can prevent identity theft?
Compare your answers with a partner. Then share whether youknow anyone who has been a victim of Identity Theft.

How can you stop this from happening? Of course, you have
to be careful about giving out important information. Here are
some other things to do:
Dont carry your Social Security card with you. Carry only
the ID and credit cards youll need.
Dont use your mothers maiden (family) name to be the code
for identifying you. In English-speaking countries, this does not
appear on your ID. But it can be easy to find out. Use a
password instead.
Know when to expect your bills. A crook can get your credit
card number, then make a fake change of address so your bills
go to them, not you. Then they buy things with your card and
you dont find out for a long time when the person who sold the
items tried to collect the purchase price from you.
If your identity is stolen, call the police. Its important to act
quickly.

HANDOUT #13 (Lesso n 4.6)Task: Dear Abby Advice Writing
GIRL FEARS SHE'LL LOSE TOUCH WITH BESTFRIEND FAR AWAY
04/20/2013
DEAR ABBY: I am a 16-year-old girl from Serbia. I have been in U.S. fortwo years and I'm studying English in an ESL class. I read your columnand could use some help to solve my problem because I am very upset.I have known my best friend, "Vanessa," for a year and a half. She is my
age and we were very close. She had to leave school because herfamily moved. I can't visit her because she is too far away. I cried
because I don't know if she is going to remember me or if she is going to forget all about
me. I'm so afraid I am going to lose her. Can you help me? -- SAD IN BUFFALO
DEAR SAD: You are obviously doing well in your ESL studies, and for that I congratulateyou. Because you and Vanessa no longer live close does not mean that you can't still befriends. Although she has moved to a different geographical location, you can maintain a
friendship because she is as near as your phone or computer.Because you want to still be a part of her life, keep her updated on what is going on in yourlife and ask her to do the same. That is the way long-distance relationships are maintained,
and some of them have been known to last a lifetime.

HANDOUT #17 (Lesso n 5.7)
Unit QuizContains brief and reading listening elements, with comprehensionexercises (e.g., cloze, matching); vocabulary review including word
family relationships (AS, p . 71, #2),adapted to reflect actual keywords in unit).
Note on assessment (from reflection paper): Since there are no externalfunders, the parents ESL program can choose to do assessment as it deemsbest; it need not utilizeAll-Stars standardized testing formats. The adaptationanticipates a unit-final quiz that documents student learning (summativeassessment); such an assessment would be carefully crafted to avoiddemotivating learners. However, such an end-of-unit quiz provides an incentivefor students to review, helps them chart their progress, and provides teachers
and administrators information needed to assess whether learning outcomes arebeing realized. Summative assessment is augmented by ongoing formativeassessment (in particular relating to speaking). The end-of-the-unit writingtasks/activities provide a blend: a structured way to assess learning and a non-test-based vehicle for learners to receive written teacher feedback.

B-1: StorycorpsProject
The unit adaptation indicates that a major four-skills projectelement is a regular threadwithin this unit, with a half-hour dedicated to project work every other lesson. But thisproject also spans several units. Its focus and a substantial part of its external inputcomes from the NPR Storycorps project(http://storycorps.org/). This project canprovide a wealth of authentic input (the voices/stories of everyday people, told in theirown words both in audio and available transcribed, in written form, in two books). Theanticipated output students telling stories to each other, and possibly interviewingothers will be authentic, personalized, and highly relevant to the students. Studentswill interview with each other, and these interviews will ultimately be recorded andtranscribed. Many of the other outputs of the project will be determined by the students
as will the presentation possibilities. One possibility might be for a student(s) toactually sign up to record an interview at Storycorps; this woulddepend on studentinterest and Storycorps Chicago schedule. At this early, idea-generating stage in theproject process, student attention is given to listening to some of the interviews (a few ofwhich have animated video, which aids in comprehension), along with early reflectionon the interview process. Every effort will be made to utilize computer technology in thisprocess, though this could be somewhat difficult, given the limited access of somestudents to the internet.
B-2: Language Journal
Langu age Jou rnal . The Language Journal is a regular part of this class. Students areasked to not ice and record interesting, difficult, funny, or perplexing elements ofEnglish. At the end of every Thursday class, students hand in a paragraph describingan element they encountered during the previous week, and then share what theyobserved in cocktail hour type exchanges (meaningful output about languageawareness/fluency building). This sequence creates a natural pre-planning (paragraphwriting) phase that undergirds informal oral production.
