Swimming

For the last three weeks Room 8 has been doing swimming. We have learnt a lot in this time and have been  improving in swimming a lot.We have been learning to kick on our side to improve our leg action and we have been learning freestyle and backstroke. Mr McLennan has been giving us good advice so we can improve in our swimming. One thing most people have been learning about is kicking with straight legs because most of us were bending our knees while kicking. Another thing we have had to practise is in freestyle. We learnt that we need to just lift our head slightly out of the water when we need to breathe or it will slow us down and make breathing more difficult. So we  have learnt a lot and used all the advice we have been given and tried to improve. We are looking forward to some more swimming lessons at the end of the year.
