Swimming Lessons- YMCA

This week for Swimming Lessons we learnt about Hypothermia and Hyperthermia. Hypothermia means that the human body is losing heat than it can produce so the body will turn very cold. And Hyperthermia means that the body is getting more heat and less. For today's lessons with Kelly, we first learnt how to scuttle with our hands. We had to push them back and forth in the water. After we learnt how to do that, We had to float while scuttling with our hands. First we had to put our ears in the water and start floating in the water. Then we learnt how float to the other platform with the pool noodles. We had to grab a pool noodle and try to swim to the other platform with the noodle. After we used the pool noodle we had to use the boards to swim to the other side of the platform. Then we had to go back to the other platform. Then we tried to float with the boards. After we used the boards we did some floating. After we had finished floating, we went to go get changed and go back to class.
