dc.description.resumoFew (if any) are the books in the market directed towards middle-aged and senior ESL learners. Teachers often find themselves having to use materials targeting adults in general. However, this target group carries specificities when it comes to choosing topics to debate and proposed perspectives. This project argues on the importance of middle-aged and senior citizens being recognized as a valuable section of society. As learners of L2, they have different genre-related needs from the ones presented in the adults’ textbooks. Many middle-aged+ citizens start taking up language classes for reasons that are quite different from the ones by younger adults. They often have no interest in finding a new job, or learning how to write an academic essay. On the contrary, they are often looking for a way to keep their minds sharp through study. Therefore, themes have to be entertaining and the flow of the textbook should be light. This project is, therefore, an attempt at lighting up the debate on current material and much needed changes in practices which do not cater for this target audience’ needs.pt_BR
