text: Extracurricular activities can also help later in life. Participating in an activity can help you get a job. You can show experience from activities you did in school. For example, if you are thinking of getting a writing job saying that you did a lot of years working on your school's yearbook might help. Writing in school can help you improve your writing and editing skills, but if someone takes a writing club or the yearbook class it can help them even more. Also, if you play in a sport like running or swimming you are more likely to continue it in the future. Continuing a sport can help keep you in shape and healthy. This can help you live longer and have a better life.
