There are many things that can be done outside. There is one activity that I like to do. I like to get a group of friends and go walking. It benefits us being outside. We are outside in the sun, talking face to face, and we can get a view on different types of plant and animal life. There are many different paths and roads that we can take to explore. This is my favorite outdoor activity.

My favorite outdoor activity is going to the lake and swimming. We have a boat and a jet ski that we bring to the lake every summer just to play around and ride. I like swimming in the lake because it’s always warm and we sometimes bring a raft to lie on. I can’t wait for summer so I can go swimming again.
Logan Fleenor, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I love to adventure in the great outdoors. I love hearing the birds chirp. I see new sights almost every time I go outside. I would live outside if I had the choice. The outdoors is like my home. It’s where I was raised and where I was taught that sometimes it’s not all that good outdoors. The best thing to do is think about the beautiful calming woods.
Katie Bear, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is riding a bike because when you ride a bike you will go fast, you can do tricks, and you can go up and down hills. This is why riding a bike is my favorite outdoor activity.
Nick Davis, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is swimming. I go swimming every summer and I always have so much fun. There’s not really any particular reason I like swimming. I just enjoy it so much and it’s a lot of fun.
Gavin Lamb, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is camping. Camping for me is like sitting outside and listening to the birds sing. You have a nice little campfire going. The tiny crickets chirping a goodnight song and the stars. This is my favorite outdoor activity, what’s yours?
Willow Dorman, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activities are coon hunting, riding horses, and working. I have a farm and I like it. Having things to do is fun. I’m not the kind of person that likes to stay in the house all day. Having an outdoor activity is a good thing to have. There is nothing wrong with it.
Justin Lawson, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
Golf is my favorite outdoor activity. Golf is an amazing thing. It is so much fun. Golf is a workout, but it is an enjoyable one. If you don’t play golf, what are you doing? Get up, go find you some clubs, and go play golf.
Alex Marshall, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I love shooting basketball outside, it’s my favorite outdoor activity. It just gives me time to relax and just have some alone time by myself. I can also just practice shooting and dribbling the ball. It gives me time to get away from all the media and electronics. I can also play against my family and spend time with them as well. Shooting basketball is my favorite outdoor activity.
Keaton McDonald, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I like to play soccer. I have always enjoyed running and kicking the ball.
Stacey Pilon, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is swinging in my hammock while holding my kitten. Her name is Cotton and she is pure white. Swinging in hammocks is my favorite thing to do. So try swinging in your hammock on a hot day after working and holding your favorite pet or pets. So try doing it someday! It is amazing!
Jasmine Crawford, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
When I go outside, I like to go on long walks. I enjoy taking in my surroundings and stopping to smell the metaphorical roses. Walks can be very relaxing, especially when you are stressed. Just going out to be in nature every once in a while can help you connect to the outdoors.
Tyler Garwood, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I love to go fishing! I could fish all day, every day! I am very good at it, but I feel like it’s more luck instead of talent. One of my favorite parts about fishing is driving the boat around everywhere. I look forward to driving the boat. I love the view you get of the sun setting over the lake as it becomes dark. It is so breathtaking! Fishing trips are my favorite outdoor activity!
Tate Cox, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is hiking because you get to enjoy the calming effects of nature while releasing bounds of energy through exercise. I love being outside in general, due to the gorgeous scenery of our mountains, but when combined with walking, I don’t know if there is anything I enjoy more than breathing in the icy air that is laced with the scent of wilderness.
Kylee Honeycutt, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I love to fish! Fishing is the best stress reliever ever! You’re sitting there, taking in God’s creation. It’s a beautiful thing. Plus, there’s many different types of fish to catch. If you catch a really good fish, you’ll get bragging rights! Try fishing sometime!
Shawn Hampton, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
There are many outdoor activities I enjoy, but my favorite is going swimming. I like this activity because you can play games and do flips, all while you swim. One of my favorite games to play is Marco Polo. It’s also a great way to spend time with your friends and family.
Kylee Phillips, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
When I go outside and into nature there are two things that come to mind. The first thing is where I am going to go and two is what all do I need. After that is when I start exploring. Exploring is my favorite outdoor activity to do because it lets you see a side of nature that you haven’t seen before. Exploring gives my life meaning and excitement.
William Scott, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I like to take long walks on the beach. There’s just something I like about it. The cool air, the sunset, the glimmering water.
Alex Hernandez, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
Everyone has at least one outdoor activity they like, right? I mean, sure, some people hate everything about outdoors, but there has to be at least one thing. My favorite activity is football cheerleading. It only lasts for about three months, sometimes longer. It’s really the only thing I like doing outdoors. I’m normally the flyer because either I’m the smallest or the others just don’t want to.
Lexie McKnight, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is going on a walk. Taking a stroll through nature’s vastness step by step is quite refreshing. Forests are one of my favorite places to walk because of the plant life and animal activity. They’re also very peaceful, which clears my mind a lot. Mother Nature certainly did an excellent job.
Laine Brooks, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
If I had to choose my favorite activity, well, that would be hard. There’s so much to choose from. I would have to pick baseball. Why may you ask? It is very fun. Helps get my exercise in. It brings my family together. Helps me and my cousins to learn to get along and play well together. These are the reasons why baseball is my favorite outdoor activity.
Sierra Parks, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
Most of us love the outdoors. My favorite activity to do outside is ride my bike and four wheeler. My little brother and I race around our property and play cops and robbers on our four wheelers. My whole family goes on bike trails together and riding with my family is really fun!
Waylon Ball, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I don’t know about you but I love the outdoors. My favorite activity is fishing. I love fishing because it involves patience and after you get done you can swim.
Jeffery Hurd, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite activity is hunting. I get to spend time with my dad. Also, it’s really peaceful in the woods. It is void of the sounds of civilization. The best part is getting the buck you have been after for days. This is why hunting is my favorite outdoor activity.
Jacob Eldridge, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
I love going outside and playing around with my family, but my favorite activity is playing volleyball. It is my favorite sport. I love playing it with my family, but I get really competitive, maybe too competitive.

Summer would have to be my favorite season because of all the outdoor activities. I love being outside and my favorite thing to do outdoors would have to be softball. Softball is my favorite sport and activity. It brings me so much joy!
Kamrin Bishop, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is jogging. I love to feel the cold wind hit my face as I glide through the streets. It is absolutely exhilarating to do and that is why jogging is my favorite outdoor activity.
J Marcum, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is hunting. I love this activity because I get to spend time with my dad in the woods. Although it’s really cold, it is one hundred percent worth it. The only negative part of hunting is when you have to leave.
Jace Perkins, 8th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Brooks
My favorite outdoor activity is swimming in my friend’s pool. My friend has a pool we make whirl pools, we chicken fight, and fight with pool noodles. We like to make a whirl pool. You swim around in circles to make a whirl pool. We also did handstands in the pool. We tried to hold our breath as long as we could. We play chicken. We had fun playing chicken. I was the first one to get knocked off and Ella was the second one to get knocked off her dad. We fight with pool noodles too. We used the noodles to be elephant trunks and used them as horses too. It was a fun game. Playing in my friend’s pool is my favorite outdoor activity.
Josie Fischer, 2nd, Hilton Elementary, Mrs. Rhoton
My favorite outdoor activity is fireball. My favorite activity of the outdoors is fireball because it is like dodge ball. I just love when we play dodge ball. Playing fireball is an activity I love because you usually run around and I like running. It builds up your leg muscles. I like fireball as an outside activity because sometimes we make teams and team names. It makes it more interesting. These are the reasons that my favorite outdoor activity is fireball.
Connor Ratliff, 2nd, Hilton Elementary, Mrs. Edwards
My favorite outdoor activity is hunting. The three reasons I like hunting are: I get to stay all night. I always get to hunt deer. I always get to do it with my dad. I like staying overnight because I can hunt deer in the morning and at night. I can prank people by saying there’s a deer. I always get to hunt a deer because they’re easy to shoot. I also do that because you can shoot them from a tree and take their antlers. I always get to do it with my dad because my mom has to take care of Sissy. Also, my dad has the most experience in the house. Those are the reasons hunting is my favorite outdoor activity. I love hunting.
