Kiwi Sport



LI: to learn water safety skills
This week we went to Swimming. When we got there we learned how to save people that are drowning. We demonstrated it with a partner. One person would go in the water pretending to panic and call for help. The other person would get a noodle and pull them out. We learned when trying to save people we had to get something to give them and pull them out. It could be a branch, rope, or even a noodle. When pulling someone out we should always ly down on our front. Just so we can keep the noodle, or rope secure.

Then after that we learned how to tread water. When we float on water we should sit under the water like there us a seat there, and when doing that spin your feet in circles wide and long. Then while doing that we have to do a sculling motion. Then put one hand out and shout "HELP! HELP! HELP!". Also we should never swim in water that is above our head. When you get tired of spinning your legs, and sculling you should do a back starfish. Then poke your hand out for a short time and shout "HELP!", then go back to your floating position.
