Background:The United States of America is a country that consists of fifty states governed under the same government. Each state has its own separate government though, each governing their own state. Each state therefore has its own economy and governor etc.
Assignment:You have got an assignment from one of these states’ tourist office. You are supposed to write a short but informative pamphlet about the state of your choice. The text will cover the basics about your state but also places worth visiting and sights worth seeing.
Note: One state per group, two groups are
not allowed to have the same state.
Form:
You will work in pairs and write your article in one A4, landscape mode, using 12 point text. The actual text you write will consist of no less than ½ A4 and no more than a full A4. However, you can use whichever layout you want. If you want to add basic facts about your state, you are allowed to have a box containing the basics on the front page (optional). You may use how many pictures you like but remember they will not take more than ½ A4 altogether.
Note: State your sources!
