Final writing assignment back stories/期末作文の写真について

Hello,

How are you? Do you remember the pictures in the final writing assignment (期末作文)? Here are these pictures again, but with some links to information about them. 

I am enjoying reading your stories to these pictures, but all these pictures have real stories to them. For example - look at the picture above again. It looks like an old country house on the outside, but it has a unique story to it. Click on this link for more, and on this link here about the picture. 

Look at this next picture. It looks like a quiet beach now, but it was once a place where great history was made. Click on this link to find out more about this place.

Now look at this next picture again. This was the birthplace of a famous person from the 20th century. Click on this link here to find out about who the person was. 

Finally, while this final place has people in the picture, the place was very important. Click on the link here to find out more, and click on this link about the two people in the picture. 

I hope these are interesting for you. 

おつかれさまでした！It's been great working with all of you this year. You've been some great students. Have a great spring holiday!

Final writing assignment 2/期末作文2

Hello!

Happy New Year! How are you? Today, let's look at our final writing assignment (期末作文): writing about a place. 

This is very important - because we are finishing the year here at Daito Bunka, this is like a writing test - so we have to do this in one class time!

Rules:
You have a choice of four (4) different places. Choose one (1) of these places. 

Your task is to write a 3 paragraph short story about one of these places. 

Your papers must have correct formatting, with correct spacing.

Your papers must have titles for your stories.

Your papers must have your name, date and the name of the class on it.

Your writing must have some long sentences, with connecting words (and, but, or, so, because, whereas, however など).

Very important - your paragraphs should be long. Do not make them too short!

You have to start and finish your writing today. The very best writing on these pictures I will put together into a collection called Places and Traces - so write the best you can!

Imagine stories for these places. For example - take a look at the picture above. What is your impression (感想) of this place? Imagine people, characters, situations, and even a history about them and the places.  I will show the top picture again:

Good luck!
