Writing assignment

Your school is part of an international exchange program and soon some students from Ireland will visit you. Their organising committee has sent a letter requesting information both about you and your country. You will have to describe the place where you live, family and interests, plans for the future and then suggest things to do and see both in your area and in Sweden. You should: 1. cover all the points mentioned in the instructions (the received letter along with a detailed description of the points you will have to cover will be uploaded in google classroom by the end of this week) 2. be able to write a formal letter (that regards both the format and the language used) 3. use the linguistic devices we have been working with in class in order to make your text cohesive 4. take care of the grammar aspects (verb tenses, subject-verb agreement) we have been working with in class.
