Mentor Opinion Writing
Opinion: Swimming is great
Hey! Have you ever wanted to try a cool sport? Something that is fun and good for
you? If you said yes, you should learn to swim! (opinion)
Swimming is a great. One reason why swimming is great is because it is fun. You
can dive in a big pool by doing cannon balls or just jumping in (example). Whenever I go
swimming, I love to make a big splash when I dive.
Another reason why swimming is great is because you can play fun games. You can
play water volleyball and Marco Polo with your friends and family. My family and I love
playing volleyball in the water. It’s fun to throw the ball around to each other.
One other reason why swimming is great is because it is great exercise. Swimming
helps your muscles get stronger because when you move in the water your muscles are
working harder.
So, if you want to try a fun and healthy activity take my advice and go swimming!
