Sport at school is not as important as maths. Do you agree? Write an essay
giving your opinion and reasons for your opinion. Write around 150 words.
Use the Useful language and the notes you made in the Engage task to help you
prepare.
Tip An essay uses academic language which is more formal. The passive form is often
used in essays and there are no contractions. Each paragraph has a clear purpose so
the reader can clearly understand the ideas.
