Comment: Think about how you spend your time out of school. What is something that you like to do? Write a comment in which you state your opinion of a great pastime with two or three reasons for why it is a great pastime. Use the following example as a model for your sentence:

A great pastime is riding my bicycle because it makes me healthy, it is good for the environment, and I like being outdoors.

Read other students' comments and comment on what they write by starting with @Name. You can ask them a question to clarify their reasons or tell them what you like about their pastime.
