We present our second issue of the literary strategy “TAPSANDES IN 100 WORDS”
In a globalized society the need to communicate what we do becomes crucial to get in contact with different people and cultures around the world. To develop good writing skills is an important part of the process of learning a foreign language and it brings a lot of advantages, it also becomes a motivating activity, especially, when we write about our most memorable life experiences at a very important place inour lives, our school. A writing process in a foreign language implies to organize our thoughts andstart expressing gradually our ideas by using the right words, sentence structure, collocations andidioms, allowing us to put into practice our knowledge in the language. Writing skills development gives the writer the opportunity to get feedback andlearnfrom others as well..
