Do extracurricular activities benefit students

[3Kasey]

Extracurricular activities help students shape themselves into the people they want to be. Extracurricular activities help students with time management, exploring their talents, personal growth and development, confidence, and social skills, and keep them out of trouble. Sometimes students need stability in their life lives be successful in the future. If they have some sort of stability, they have the reassurance that they can do whatever they put their minds to.

 

Some people believe that extracurricular activities leave no time for homework, social life, and time at home with their families. This has been proven untrue and there are more benefits than anything. Studies have shown that being involved in extracurricular activities gives some students a more positive outlook on school. They also encourage students to find things they truly enjoy, this can help them to become more confident in themselves, helping them in the future.

 

I think that extracurricular activities help students in the long run. They help give students structure and stability which is a necessity in daily life. They need this so they can see how the real world works. In all, they prepare students for what life will be like outside of school after they're done. Many students will tell you they benefit from participating in activities.

I agree that taking extracurriculars can do more good than harm, I am in a bunch of them and I can say it has really helped my social life because I get to hang out with people I don't usually see. It has interrupted my time to work on homework but if you do it right I think it's the right choice for most people.

I do believe extracurricular activities do have more pros then cons, but I don't think it is for everyone. I can enjoy a good activity here and there but in a lot of the time i feel like it become more of a chore then anything.
