Lesson 3. Balancing Needs and Wants
This self-access reading is for high school 3rd grade students who are studying English with the textbook, high school English 2, written by Chan Gyu Min et al and published by Joongang in 2010.
My target learners' level would vary but above intermediate level because the reading resources aren't that easy for ones below intermediate.
I defined my reading category as topic-based for the chapter, "Balancing Needs and Wants," for the topic is very beneficail for students providing useful tips for shopping.
Actually this chapter has not that intriguing story for students. Rather, it is advisable for them since it offers practical tips to be wise shoppers. However, the chapter could be interesting enough due to the contextualized contents. Also, the chapter definitely is correlated to one of the chapters in Home Economics Education. Therefore, students would practice them in their real life. I hope that they would learn how to plan their shopping referring to some recommandations in reading sources.
