Insert two pins [they become the two focal points] vertically into a piece of paper or two nails into the ground. Fasten two ends of a thread or string, making sure that when you are finished the loop of string will easily loop around the pins. Loop the string around the pins. Now take a pencil or marker and mark the ellipse out on your surface keeping the string taught.
