My Dream House

By:

Directions: You will be creating a 5 paragraph (slide) essay describing the house that you
will one day live in! In the first paragraph, you will give an overall description of what your
house looks like from the outside. Then, in the next three paragraphs, you will choose your
three favorite rooms and describe them in great detail – each room gets its own paragraph.

you have to use at least 10 different conjunctions throughout your essay! Please underline
them! See the last few slides for a list of conjunctions and how you’ll be graded!
