WRITING ADVENTURE 2012-2
Welcome to the Writing Adventure at the end of Semester 2012-2 at Universidad Autónoma de Santo Domingo (Autonomous University in Santo Domingo), San Francisco de Macorís Precinct. This is one of the smallest classes I have ever had. We had a great time anyway. Francisco and Nidio did such a great job. I hope you read their papers in earlier posts. Take a look at those writers posting their work on our Bulletin Board.
Some revision is usually necessary.
There the writers go.
They clean the mess first.
Team work is the best.
Francisco (to the left) and Nidio (to the right) make such a good team.
Here is Francisco posting his paper. You can read it in an earlier post.
These are me, Máximo (The guide through the writing adventure) and Francisco.
Me and Nidio.
Finally, the three of us were so happy with all we learned along this writing adventure.

HOMEORK FOR MY STUDENTS AT RECINTO SAN FRANCISCO DE MACORIS, UASD

-Study Generating Ideas: Free-writing (Quickwriting), Brainstorming, Clustering, Questions and Answers, and Keeping a Journal
-Find information about your second subtitle
PEDAGOGY (FEM-327)

DEAR STUDENTS AT RECINTO SAN FRANCISCO DE MACORIS, UASD
Hi,
My greetings to you all. I am typing this message at 4:26 p.m. The latest information about the teachers strike is that authorities changed their meeting time. This morning, I was informed that it would be in the afternoon. I think we will not have class today either. Thus, keep paying attention the news reports. I hope we can have class tomorrow.
Take care
MAXIMO
TO ALL MY STUDENTS AT RECINTO SAN FRANCISCO DE MACORIS, UASD:
I hope you all are fine. The latest information I have about the university professors strike is that the authorities will meet today at 10:00 a.m. I hope a solution to the conflict will result from that meeting. As soon as the strike is over, I will drive to San Francisco de Macorís and start teaching. I recommend you to watch the news and be alert.
Take good care of yoursrlves
Mr. Encarnación
