Aquatics


SWIMMING

 For the past few weeks, Rm 14 has joined Rm 17 in the pool for aquatic lessons. We have been learning to swim freestyle and backstroke. To learn these, there was a confident swimmer as the ‘teacher’ for the others. The class said that the way we were being taught was better than the teacher standing on the side telling us what to do. They then explained the thoughts behind this statement, they said it was easier to see what they were doing if someone is in the pool showing them how to float, kick, use their arms properly, and master the stroke. We are enjoying the lessons more than doing school work in class. Some kids say that it refreshes your mind and body and using the energy helps stop angriness.
