Student Competencies The following are the competencies for this lesson: 1. Describe the three basic types of apartments. A studio apartment is usually one long room that is a combination of a living room, kitchen and bedroom, with a bath off to the side. It is usually the least expensive type of apartment to rent. A standard apartment usually has a living room, kitchen, bathroom and one or more bedrooms. It may be found in a complex which is usually made up of many apartments. A complex may have laundry facilities and a pool. A duplex is usually a home or building divided into two parts. It doesn’t offer the facilities and social activities of an apartment and can be the most expensive apartment to rent. You may need to purchase appliances and furniture if the apartment isn’t furnished. 2. Define what it means to have a “furnished” apartment. A furnished apartment means it has some of the needed appliances and furniture included. 3. Define the following terms: lessee, lessor, security deposit. 1. Lessor- the person who owns and/or represents the owner of the property. 2. lessee- the person who wants to rent the property 3. security deposit- money you pay the landlord (lessor) before you move in to cover any damage you might cause. If you don’t cause any damage, it’s usually returned to you. 4. Explain how to decide if you can afford the rent for an apartment. Your monthly rent should be equal to one week’s take home pay. 5. Explain why cleaning is important when living on your own and describe three tips for effective cleaning. It’s best for your health to regularly clean your apartment. This gets rid of germs and bugs and keeps things smelling fresh and clean. Clean your bathroom weekly, clean your dishes immediately after use, wash your laundry at least once a week, empty the garbage often, dust the furniture often, and sweep the floors weekly and keep them clean. 6. Describe five ways to meet new people and get involved in the community. 1. meet people at work 2. meet people at your apartment complex 3. join a gym or health club 4. join a class 5. volunteer at a local charity or organization 7. List three tips for being a good grocery shopper. Inventory your cabinets, decide what you need, create a shopping list, buy only what you need, stay within your budget. 8. Explain what a budget is and how to make one. You will be responsible for paying all your bills on time and having enough money each month to do so. A budget will help you plan your expenses and how much money you can allow for Living On Your Own Instructor Lesson Plan - Pg. 3

things like groceries, entertainment, etc. You need to determine all your anticipated expenses for the month, such as rent, gas, car payment, groceries, etc. and then subtract that total from your monthly take-home pay to see if you have enough money to pay your bills. A budget helps you pay your bills on time and determine if you have enough money for extras, such as entertainment. Answer Keys Pre-Post Test 1. True 2. True 3. False 4. False 5. True 6. Furnished 7. Money you pay before moving into a property in case of damages 8. A late fee “Matching” Worksheet #1: Top section: 1. C; 2. D; 3. B; 4. A. Bottom section: 1. C; 2. D; 3. B; 4. A. “Math Think It Over”: 1. $25. ($100 - $75 = $25) 2. $50. ($20 + $30 = $50) 3. $90. ($125 - $35 = $90). “Making a Budget Worksheet”: 1. $670 2. $305

VIDEO MODELING PROVIDES VISUAL AND AUDITORY SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS TO COMPLETE ACTIVITIES. With this highly motivating, consistent method of presentation, students know what to expect and it helps them stay on task! Research shows video modeling is effective for teaching social and functional skills.

“I think the video modeling is a key part of Project Discovery that other functional programs overlook.”

Elena Hitch, Special Education Instructor, Woodford Co. HS, KY

SYSTEMATIC INSTRUCTION STRUCTURED APPROACH WHERE PROMPTS ARE EMBEDDED INTO THE CURRICULUM TO ELICIT NEAR ERRORLESS LEARNING. The System of Least Prompts is included to teach chained behaviors as tasks are broken into single steps with a prompt hierarchy to help ensure success. Constant Time Delay is used to teach discrete behaviors such as vocabulary.
