3 Use your notes to write three paragraphs in your notebook. Use the text as a mode

I started playing beach volleyball last summer, when I went to California with my family. In beach volleyball there are two teams of two players. The players wear T-shirts and shorts, but you don’t have to wear shoes. You have to hit the ball over a net with your hands, but you cannot touch the net. Teams can’t touch the ball more than three times before it crosses the net. Players can’t touch the ball twice in a row. A team scores when the ball touches the ground on the opponents’ court. The first team to win two sets wins the match. Now, I do indoor volleyball. Playing indoors is tough because the floor is harder than the sand. When volleyball is on TV, I always watch it.
