P.E essay

                 P.E is a waste of students’ learning time.

Disagree

P.E should be compulsory for all students. Many students think that P.E is a waste of time, but hopefully, your opinions are going to change after reading this essay.

Firstly, P.E introduces us to a healthy lifestyle. Physical education may help your immune system and also improve the health of your organs. It reduces the risk of heart disease, lung cancer, diabetes, stroke, etc. 

In addition, P.E helps us with our academic skills as well as our areas of wellbeing. P.E promotes active lifestyles, develops leadership skills, teamwork, decision making, goal setting and risk management. In other words, P.E is not just about being improving physically but mentally too.

Did you know that athletes from the NBA have an average salary of 7.5 million USD? Or that Lionel Messi, one of the highest-paid athletes, has a 70 million USD salary? These people reached this far because of their dedication to P.E and sports. Staying physically and mentally fit may help you with future careers such as construction workers, firefighters, lifeguards, etc.

People may think of P.E as a waste of time, but it plays a big part in a student’s literature. “Intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of its capacity when the body is healthy and strong.” John F. Kennedy.
