The arts, including art, music and theatre are considered to be important in society. Do you think the arts still have a place amongst our modern lifestyles? Ÿ Should the arts be included in school programs?

Even tho our fast type of living had made it a little more difficult to pay enough attention to
arts
such
 as
music
, theatre and art, from my experience we still manage to do it. These
arts
 still have a huge impact on our daily lives and should definitely be more of an accent in schools.
To begin
 with, it is noticeable how popular these
arts
 still are just by looking at our society in general.
Although
 the number of
people
 who enjoy going to the theatre had decreased slightly because of the evolution of the media, theatres in my home town are still full. You even need to make a reservation to be able to watch certain plays. The media had taken over the world, and
people
 might be using it more because of its availability, but nothing can change the live experience.
Secondly
, I believe that
music
 is popular as
much

 the evolution of technology helped a

, making us able to listen to

 any time of the day.
For example
, a

 are walking and listening to

This
 was not possible before.
Finally
, these
arts
 should definitely be more present in school for a number of reasons.
First
 off, they are not only for entertainment

 but
also
 for education. In my experience, going to teatre while I was in high school helped me get educated a
lot
. Some
people
 might say that kids have better things to do but I disagree. These subjects are as important as any other, moreso, diversity is good for kids. In
this
 way, they get to know a
lot
 of different fields and see what's best for them. In conclusion, there is no doubt that
arts
 are very present nowadays, and probably will be in the future.
Furthermore
, it would help a
lot
 if kids were educated more about them.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
