Lesson 1 Materials





A.  Your name and address go here. These are preprinted on the check for your convenience and tell the person or company to whom you’re giving the check – known as the payee – that you’re the one who wrote it.

B.  Write in today's date.   

C.   This is where you write the name of the person or company who will be receiving the money. If you’re making a withdrawal for yourself, write “Cash” here.

D.  The amount of the check is written here.     

E.   The amount in words is written on this line. You start at the left edge of the line and when you’re finished, you will draw a line through the remaining empty space as far as the word “Dollars.”

F.   The name of the bank that holds your account appears here.

    G. To remember what you bought, you can write a brief description here. 

H. Your signature should be the last thing you complete. It gives the bank   
     permission, or authorization, to release the money to the payee.

I.           This is the check number. This reference number will help you keep track of your payments by check. Each time you write a check, you should record the check number, date, payee, and amount in your check register, and calculate your new balance.
