Last week Carla came to teach us some exciting swimming skills. The first time she came we did some free style and learnt some different ways to move through the water. On Tuesday we did some jelly fish and mushroom floats. The jelly fish float is when we dangle our arms and legs underneath our body. The mushroom float is when you tuck up into a ball and float. On Wednesday we learnt how to do the help position. To do the help position you put your arms down against your side and pull your knees up close to your body. You hold your knees there and tuck your chin into your chest. On Thursday we used the life jackets and learnt how to survive and keep warm in the ocean.On Friday we did sculling and sculling is not like sculling a drink.It's like scooping ice cream in the water.Finally we practised back stroke with the flutter boards. The curve on the bottom of the flutter board that's sort of like a smile should be facing your smile. We had a really exciting week and learnt lots of new things.Have a look at our photos below.
