THE NEWS WERE WRITTEN... by the students.

Welcome!! Today you are reporters.

1.  Create a post with the title:  "Passive Voice."

2.  Find 10 things that the Colombian government has done for the people.  Write ten sentences in the passive voice based on what you found.

Ex.  Many houses were given to the people.

3.  Write a news about something extraordinary that happened in the University.  Make the title using the passive voice, and then write the full news in no more than 100 words.  Try to use images and a news paper article layout.

Ex.
25 Exams were failed by the Upper-Intermediate Students.
In Bogotá, more exactly at La Gran Colombia University, a mean teacher, known by the name of Mr. Z, has decided that his students do not know enough English, and decided to fail all of them by applying a difficult exam.

The University authorities are investigating the facts, but the students are not happy and they are even thinking about doing a strike.  Meanwhile, the teacher says: ¨ This is something that I wanted to do a long time ago, and I finally did."

"We hope that this problem will be solved as soon as possible," said one of the students of Mr. Z's class, and she added, "Mr. Z is the worst teacher we have had, so we knew this would happen."
