Pinterest Assignment Example

Hello, Everyone —

I have just created an example for your second Pinterest assignment — “Grammar Assignment 2.0”. To see it, please click here.

As with the previous assignment, please title your board “Grammar Assignment 2.0” and copy my board description (“Grammar Assignment 2.0 — Example. In this board…”). This will help me identify and grade your assignment.

Review the “Help with Pinterest” page (made for Grammar Assignment 1) if you need extra help; then, email me if you need more help.

I mentioned this on Pinterest, but I want to mention it here, too. You should put your pins in order: first, second, third, and so on; Pinterest will order the pins backward, though (5, 4, 3, 2, 1), but that is okay.

Have a great weekend!

Chuseok Assignment

Here is your assignment; it is due on September 23. To complete this assignment, you must use the Pinterest account that we created in class. I demonstrated how to use Pinterest in class. This is a big assignment, I know. I will grade this assignment and it will make-up for missing classes, as we discussed in class.

If you have any questions or need any help, please email me. Here are your directions:

  1. You must create 3 pinboards.
  2. Title them “Grammar Assignment 1.1”, “Grammar Assignment 1.2”, and “Grammar Assignment 1.3”.
  3. In the description, COPY the information listed below. These are also your directions.
  4. Complete the assignments by following the directions below. The first one should be about things that you like (hobbies, interests, food, traveling, sports…); the second one should show actions and include a description; the third one should show actions and include a question using the present-continuous form.
  5. You can visit my page on Pinterest (click here) for examples.
  6. You can read this page (click here) for extra help in creating your pinboards.
  7. We will review this assignment in class on September 23. It is due on September 23, and I will not accept it late.

Here are the directions from #3:

Grammar Assignment 1.1: Create a pinboard with 15 pictures. Each picture should show something you like and have a one-sentence description.

Grammar Assignment 1.2: Create a pinboard with 10 pictures. Each picture must show an action – like a sport, a hobby, a job, or something else. Describe the picture in one or two sentences. In your description, use the present-continuous form (For example: “They are working.” “He is having fun.”) AND the simple-present tense (For example: “He is happy.” “It looks dangerous.”).

Grammar Assignment 1.3: Create a pinboard with 10 pictures. In the description, ask a question about each picture using the present-continuous form.

Plan — Details

So, we are going to be out of class for two weeks, due to the Chuseok Holiday and University Foundation Day. Since I do not want us to get behind, I am going to assign an out-of-class assignment. This will make-up for one of the days, and will keep us from having to have 2 make-up days at the end of the semester.
