    DREAM HOUSE. The year is 2030 and you are living in your dream home.  Write a three-paragraph description of your home and make a drawing that illustrates each of the main sections. Write approx. 15-20 sentences and be prepared to present your description in class.

    • Pre-Writing: Look back at the vocabulary for homes, yards, rooms, furniture, and decorations. Make a brief outline for three paragraphs:
      • type of home, location, yard, and outdoor spaces;
      • floors, rooms, activities; and
      • thorough description of your favorite room, including furniture, decorations, and colors.
    • 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:
        Connect some of the sentences by using conjunctions such as og (and), men (but), fordi (because), når (when), hvis (if), etc.
        Make sure that at least some of the sentences start with an adverbial or some element other than jeg.
    • Spelling and Grammar
      • Check the noun forms.
        ex.) Det er tre soverom i andre etasje.
        ex.) Jeg har tre puter på senga mi.
      • Check inversion after adverbials.
        ex.) I hagen er det mange trær.
      • Check inversion after dependent clauses.
        ex.) Da jeg var liten, bodde jeg i Oslo.
      • Check adjective forms, both the indefinite and definite forms.
        ex.) Jeg har et stort skrivebord på rommet mitt.
        ex.) Jeg liker de store vinduene.
    • Second draft: Rewrite your description now and make the changes you worked on during the editing process. Submit to your instructor.
