Note to the teacher:
This is an individual writing activity. By writing letters
to fictional characters, students have an opportunity to
articulate their own thoughts and feelings about homeownership
in a nonthreatening venue. Below are other students
examples that you can have your students read before or
after they write their own. Following the examples is a
worksheet students can use to write their letters.
This exercise is an adaptation of the Fannie Mae Foundations
ESL curriculum. The original exercise can be found here
in the student guide How to Buy a Home in the United
States.
