| Sample Answer #1 There are many rules at school. It is important to follow all of them. If you don’t follow the rules, there are consequences. Your teachers and the principal can give you some kind of warning or punishment. Also, if you get in trouble at school for not following the rules, you may miss out on fun things like recess and field trips. First, it is important to follow the rules at school because your teacher may give you detention. Detention is not a good thing and it is definitely not fun. You have to stay late after school and sit and do extra work. If you keep not following the rules, the principal may even decide to suspend you which is like a really long detention. That is not fun either, so it is best to follow all of the rules. Second, it is important to follow the rules at school because you may miss out fun things like field trips and recess. One time, my best friend was talking during our walk to lunch which is supposed to be quiet time, and he had to sit out from recess that day. If you are really bad, you may even miss a really cool field trip, like our one coming up to the art museum.

| Sample Answer #2 Waterparks are really fun. They have a bunch of really tall slides you can go on. They also have wave pools. Another big reason waterparks are fun are because they have places to eat that give you hot dogs and cotton candy. If you haven’t been to a waterpark before, you should go because they are really fun. First of all, they have a bunch of really tall slides that you can slide down. Some of the slides you use a tube to slide down on but on other slides, you go down on your back. Some slides are enclosed while others are open. Some slides are curvy too. Waterparks also have wave pools where you can swim in or take a tube. The waves make you go up and down. It’s a lot of fun. Second, waterparks are really fun because they have a lot of places where you can go eat junk food. Last month, when I went to a waterpark, we ate lunch at a place that had hot dogs, burgers, and pretzels. It was delicious. There were also a bunch of places with cotton candy, ice cream, and candy.
