setting : I assigned the students to search salary.com for a technology job in the Boston area. Most were impressed by the amount of money a web developer could make. Then one student looked up “teacher” and the following dialogue occurred.

student A : “YO MISS! Teachers is mad strapped!”
student B :  “NO WAY!”
student A : “You gotta quit this scene, Miss, go out and make that money!”
student C : “Yeah Miss, don’t you want that house on the hill?”
student B : “Yeah you gotta make that money and get that house on the hill…”
student C :  “…and invite us all over for a party!”
student A :  “For REAL!”
