Dear students,

I hope this message finds you well. I'm writing to inform you that this Friday, October 20th, the JGM campus will be closing its facilities at 2:00 PM. This closure is due to the Panamerican Games' inauguration at the National Stadium, which will lead to road closures and traffic disruptions around our campus.

As a result, our class will be held online. To participate, you will need access to a microphone and audio. While having your camera on won't be mandatory, there will be instances where using it will make exercises more comfortable.

I will send you the class link via U-Cursos a few minutes before the scheduled start time. I kindly request that you connect using the link provided by email, as this will help us record attendance through the platform.

If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Let's make the most of our online session. Have a great day!

Best regards,

Professor Masías O. 

1. Email Writing Practice: We began the class by reviewing the material provided last Friday, for practicing email writing. This was in preparation for the email assessed activity.

2. Practical Email Exercises: Following the review, we engaged in a series of practical exercises designed to further refine your email writing skills.

3. Continuous Assessment 1 - Email 1: As scheduled, we proceeded with the Continuous Assessment 1, which was the first email writing activity. 

4. "Risk and Danger" Unit 3: In the latter part of the class, we delved into the unit titled "Risk and Danger" The primary objective of this unit is to equip you with the skills necessary for discussing problems and common accidents in professional contexts. We covered extensive vocabulary related to health, illnesses, parts of the body, injuries, and accidents. Additionally, we explored the differences between the simple past and present perfect tenses.

Finally, I would like to remind you of an important date on our schedule. On October 16th, immediately following the holiday, we will have the assessed class activity titled "Mini Report." Please keep this date in mind, as your attendance and participation in this activity are crucial for your academic progress.

If you have any questions or need further clarification on any of the topics covered in today's class, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Your dedication to your studies is greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
