Again we had swim safe this week. This week we were continuing to practice and learn about keeping safe if we fall into water. Tracey has been very impress at how each week we have improved with what we have been doing with her.
This week we did lots of practice around tilting our heads and floating on our backs. This is till quite challenging for many of us so we will keep working on this both in our classroom swimming sessions as well as our next swim safe lesson next week.
So to re-cap. Here are the things we have been learning.
- How to break the water with our hounds to protect ourselves
- How to go into a mushroom float (so we pop up to the surface safely and don't panic)
- How to move from this mushroom float to a position where we can kick on our fronts to safety.
- How to go from a kicking on our front position to a floating on our back position.
We have made our learning into rewindable movies but will share them with you all at assembly next week (and it will also pop up on our blog this day for you all to enjoy at home as well).
Beau loves swimming and swim safe, he loves to be a mushroom in the water! Swim safe makes him feel safe in the water.
