You will write a persuasive essay about the benefits (good things) of the great outdoors.
1. First, though, you need to get some ideas to write about. Go to these sites to get some good ideas about being in the great outdoors:
https://www.care.com/c/stories/4178/5-health-benefits-of-kids-playing-outside/en-gb/
https://www.nps.gov/kids/index.cfm
https://www.rootsofaction.com/benefits-of-nature/
2. Now, use the Write to Persuade! plan sheet to write down your ideas. Read the instructions carefully, and write a lot!
3. On a lined sheet of paper, write your essay. Write your title and your name at the top. You can use up to two sheets of paper.
4. Illustrate your essay on the "All Kids Outdoors Contest" sheet.
I will send any essays to the contest that I believe might be winning essays. Happy writing!
