Since persuasive writing exam is coming up our
class is doing ours on athletics because athletics
is coming up.
Do you think that everyone at school should have
to do athletics? I do for many reasons which I will
tell you below.
Firstly people at school need to stay fit in case
of obesity. Did you know that around 1 in 8 children
aged 2-14 is obese. Doing athletics would help
prevent this because you will become active.
Another reason athletics should be compulsory is
that it has been said that the people that are active
get better grades at school, that leads to better jobs
and so on.
If you don’t do athletics then what are you going to
do in your free time? Go on your electronic devices
just what I thought. Going on electronic devices will
lead to bad eyesight and if you carry on then you
could become blind.
Athletics is fun. People may think that no sports can
be fun and only computers or phones can be. WRONG! Most people who are in the Olympics only get
there because they enjoy the sport and they
train.
It is not only obesity that you prevent from happening
it also helps your mental health and your mental well being. It does this because athletics and other sports
you must communicate in. Also being fit can make you happy by being able to keep up with your friends who might be athletic superstars.
Overall everyone should do athletics because it is
fun, you don’t want to become blind, become obese or
get a bad job. Please give it a go, you may love it then wonder what life was like without it.
