    HOMETOWN DESCRIPTION. Write an essay about your hometown using the instructions below. Write at approx. 15-20 sentences and be prepared to present your description in class.

    • Pre-Writing: Look back at the words and phrases related to hometowns. Make a brief outline for two paragraphs:
      • Name, size, location, type of city, stores / buildings / services, tourist attractions, etc.
      • Positive features and negative features
    • First Draft: Write a rough draft of your essay, but focus more on content than on grammatical correctness.
    • Editing: Read your draft and check the items listed below.
      • Organization: Does each paragraph have a main topic? Are the sentences within each paragraph related to each other
      • Cohesion and Style: Have you connected some of the sentences by using conjunctions such as og (and), men (but), fordi (because), and som (who, which)? Have you varied your sentence structure by starting some sentences with adverbials?
    • Spelling and Grammar
      • Check the noun forms
        ex.) Det er en skole og mange butikker.
      • Check the adjectives for quantity.
        ex.) Det er mye trafikk og mange mennesker.
      • Check for inversion after adverbials
        ex.) I Oslo er det mye a gjore.
    • Second draft: Rewrite your description now and make the changes you worked on during the editing process. Submit to your instructor.
