Swimming

Today's week for Swimming we learnt how to help people who are drowning using normal home objects without getting myself drowned too. We had to put one hand up while in the pool, and yell help. Next we had to save the people that work at the pools. We had ti take two turns each at helping each other. After we did that, we had to go and walk to the edge of the pool and sit down. They then taught us how to help out people if they are drowning.
They talked to us about how we should save people while they are drowning and you don't drown too. We had a short lesson this week but it was fun at least. We finished our swimming lesson and got changed and went back to class.

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.

Swimming Lessons

This week we went to the swimming pools for swimming lessons. My coach was Kelly. First we learnt how to get into the swimming pool safely. After we did that, we had to swim from the first platform, to the second platform. Then we learnt how to do the Starfish front and back. Then we got a pool noodle and used it to float on our back. Then we had to kick our feet to the other platform. We did the same thing but on our front side. After doing that, Kelly threw the toys out of the bucket and we had to go to the bottom of the pool, and try to grab it. Then we put them back in the bucket. After that we got out of the pool to get changed and go back to class on the bus.
