FACEBOOK PROFILE PROJECT
FROM THIS POINT FORWARD, WE ARE GOING TO BE DOING PROJECTS IN SPANISH. THESE PROJECTS WILL BE DESIGNED TO
ALLOW YOU TO USE CREATIVITY TO APPLY YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF SPANISH VOCABULARY AND GRAMMAR. PROJECTS WILL
COUNT THE SAME AS A UNIT EXAM AND SHOULD HOPEFULLY HELP NOT ONLY TO BALANCE OUT YOUR GRADE BUT ALSO
PROVIDE YOU WITH AN ALTERNATIVE ASSESSMENT – AN OPPORTUNITY TO DEMONSTRATE YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND
UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONTENT WE HAVE COVERED IN CLASS THROUGH WAYS OTHER THAN JUST EXAMS.

ROUGH DRAFT OF FACEBOOK PROJECT IS DUE ON _______________________________

*FINAL DRAFT OF FACEBOOK PROJECT IS DUE ON _______________________________
 
YOUR PROJECT WILL BE BROKEN INTO SIX DIFFERENT PARTS:

FACEBOOK STATUS PROFILE PAGE PICTURES FACEBOOK WALL

(15 POINTS) (50 POINTS) (10 POINTS) (20 POINTS)

CREATIVITY & NEATNESS SPELLING/GRAMMAR/VOCABULARY

(30 POINTS) (50 POINTS)
 
TOTAL POINTS FOR FACEBOOK PROJECT: ____________ POINTS 
 
FACEBOOK PROJECT GUIDELINES 
1. THIS PROJECT WILL PRIMARILY BE DONE OUTSIDE OF CLASS BUT DEPENDING ON OUR SCHEDULE, WE MAY
HAVE SOME TIME TO WORK ON ROUGH DRAFTS IN CLASS.

2. THERE IS TO BE ABSOLUTELY NO ENGLISH IN YOUR PROJECT. IT MUST BE DONE COMPLETELY IN SPANISH.

3. YOU MAY NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, USE AN ONLINE TRANSLATOR. IF YOU DON’T KNOW HOW TO
SAY A CERTAIN WORD, I EXPECT YOU TO ASK ME BEFORE, DURING, OR AFTER CLASS. THE REASON I DON’T
WANT YOU USING A TRANSLATOR IS BECAUSE THEY ALMOST NEVER GIVE YOU AN ACCURATE TRANSLATION.

4. SINCE THIS PROJECT WILL COUNT AS A UNIT EXAM GRADE, I AM EXPECTING YOUR VERY BEST WORK.
JUST COMPLETING AND TURNING IN THE PROJECT WILL NOT GUARANTEE YOU A GOOD GRADE. IT IS
IMPORTANT THAT YOU CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL DIRECTIONS IN THIS PACKET AS WELL AS TURN
IN YOUR ROUGH DRAFT ON TIME IN ORDER TO GET FULL CREDIT TOWARD THE PROJECT.

5. YOU WILL NOT ACTUALLY USE FACEBOOK.COM TO COMPLETE THIS PROJECT. I WANT YOU TO EITHER USE
POSTER BOARD OR CREATE A BOOKLET OR PAMPHLET FOR YOUR PROJECT. YOU CAN FIND SAMPLE
PROJECTS AND EXAMPLES ON THE BACK WALL IN OUR CLASS.
