text: Generic_Name practically skips into the school because he is so excited for Robotics. Ever since the principal made all students join an extracurricular activity, all students seemed to be happy to come to school. The building welcomed all students to a new school day. "Hey Generic_Name!" calls out Generic_Name's new friends. Generic_Name met them by joining Robotics. He runs to them and the whole Robotics team dives into conversation. "I'm so glad that I have such great friends that have similar interests as me," Generic_Name says cheerfully. Everyone laughs as they agree to walk to Robotics together. "Hey everyone! Can anyone answer this question?" Generic_Name's teacher asks while the students got settled in class. Everyone's hands shot up, including Generic_Name's. The teacher called on Generic_Name and he stated the right answer. "Correct!" the teacher said, and Generic_Name beamed. He was proud of himself and his new self confidence. He figured out how smart and funny he was after joining Robotics. He also figured out that he was great at math, and even led his team to victory at the Robotics Championship. "Let's work on our projects!" the teacher said. Generic_Name's group got together and they worked diligently for the rest of class. They each joined a club or sport, so they figured out teamwork. They worked together to produce an A+ worthy project. The teacher said, "I'm so proud that you guys figured out teamwork. The principal made a great decision!" I agree with the principal's decision that all students must participate in an extracurricular activity because they can make friends, gain self confidence, and develop teamwork skills.Having your own car can be great, but it's hurting the earth. So much pollution comes from cars, about fifty percent of the greenhouse gases in America are from cars. Cities have put bans on driving causing people to find our ways to get to work, cities like Vauban, and all of the driving causes pollution.
