1. You imagine and draw your dream house

2. YOu write a short description of your dreamhouse

Step 1.1:

You decide what your house is going to look like:

• What kind of house is it(flat/detached/castle/townhouseetc.)?
  
• Which rooms does your Dream House include? You need at least 5 rooms, including a fantasy room. YOu also have to include the spaces needed to make a house livable, such as a kitchen and bathroom

Step 1.2:

Draw floorplans for the ground floor and first floor, as well as  the front view of your house. On the floorplans, you include the furniture and things you want in the rooms and you label the rooms and all the things in them (in English)

Example Floor Plan 1

Example Floor Plan 2

Step 2:

Write a 150-200 word description of your Dream House. Mention what sort of house it is, what rooms you have put in and the important things we find in those rooms.

Example Step 2 (part 1):

My Dream House is an old industrial building. It has got 4 floors. On the ground floor there is an office or study and my fantasy room, a car museum. In the study I have got a desk and desk chair where I can do my work and a small sitting area with armchairs and a coffee table for small meetings and to do some reading. Next to the office there is a subbasement (souterrain, of half ondergrondse kelder) which has got the dining room/kitchen in it. The kitchen area has a small breakfast bar and the dining area has got a round dining table with chairs all around it. 

Example Step 2 (part 2):

Above the dining room/kitchen, there is a living room. The living room has got a big sofa in the middle and a few armchairs. At the front and back, there are large glass doors that lead out to balconies. From the living room you can get to the top floor. This has got a master suite with a private roof terrace and bathroom. It also has got a separate bathroom and two more bedrooms. Each bedroom has got a bed in it with nightstands and a wardrobe. The kid’s bedroom also has a closet for toys and a desk to study and do homework. There is another roof terrace on top of the car museum, which you can reach from one of the living room balconies. Both roof terraces have large lounging sofa’s and there is a barbeque.

Step 3:

Tenslotte maak je een filmpje van tussen de 3 en 5 minuten waarin je je Dream House presenteert. Je vertelt in korte begrijpelijke Engelse zinnen over je Dream House en wat je er kunt vinden.

Op de volgende slide laat ik je een voorbeeld zien.

TIME TO GET TO WORK

Ik deel de uitleg ook uit op papier, en via de chat, met voorbeeld en een overzicht van hoe je beoordeeld wordt voor een cijfer.

Lever je filmpje uiterlijk de avond van 1 April in, zodat we deze op 2 April kunnen bekijken/bespreken in de klas.
