Tools for Teachers

V. Language and Literacy Lessons


As well as glossaries of home-buying terms and reading comprehension exercises, these language and literacy tools include nontraditional activities to help students practice English. For instance, by incorporating song lyrics, employing class-discussion prompts, playing word games, and introducing movies, students will be compelled to speak and learn, growing more confident in their use of the language.

A collection of home-buying vocabulary tools within the section calls on your students’ existing knowledge and expands their word base, all while they practice using home-buying terminology.

These innovative teacher-tools ask students to reflect on and speak about what they’ve learned during the home-buying and homeownership classes and activities.
