Water Safety

This week in swimming we have been learning water skills to keep ourselves safe.

Here are some photos of us in the life jackets. We worked on...

• rolling into the water (with our life jacket)
• huddling in a circle to keep warm
• floating in a line

We have also been learning how to stay safe in the water if we need help or if someone else needs help. 

We can...

• put our hand up straight and call out.. HELP
• a buddy can throw a board to help us float
• we can hug the board tight and roll onto our backs
• we can kick to the side of the pool
• we can catch a noodle to help us float
• our buddy can pull us (with a noodle) to safely to the side of the pool

Room 5 I am very proud of all the learning you are doing in the pool!
