The
TV411 Save Smart DVD 
With the TV411 Save Smart DVD, a free multimedia toolkit,
adults can learn the basic reading and math skills behind
saving and investing.
Produced by the creators of TV411, the Adult Literacy
Media Alliance (ALMA), the TV411
Save Smart DVD offers
an engaging video, print, and web-based curriculum that
includes four units—Unit 1: Planning for Retirement;
Unit 2: Tax-deferred Savings and Investing for Retirement;
Unit 3: Mutual Funds: The Ups & Downs, Ins & Outs;
and Unit 4: Mutual Funds: Calculating the Cost. Each
unit includes...
• A video segment, featuring TV411’s math-minded Calculating Woman,
that highlights key literacy and math concepts about saving and investing strategies
in real-life, adult contexts;
• A step-by-step teacher’s guide with discussion questions and classroom
activities that extend and deepen the lessons introduced in the video;
• Student handouts that encourage learners to practice what they’ve
learned; and
• Links to interactive lessons on the TV411 web site at www.tv411.org
