Activity
In group of 4 students, they're going to
choose a country as a tourist destination,
they're going to enter Pinterest and, in the
search engine, place the name of the country,
then they're going to create a portfolio in
which they're going to save the chosen pins.
Once done, they'll write an itinerary of their
evening out in that country. They'll use the
selected pins to explain their answer.
