For our warm up we have to stay underwater for five seconds and see who can touch the ground.

At swimming today, the first thing we did was get in our groups and walk to the edge of the water get in and get some googles, so we don't blind in the water when we open them.

The second thing we did was have a challenge to touch our bottoms to the ground and get back up than we did a duck stroke to the ramp and than our instructor told us to go to get the toys she throwed in the water.

Everyone started jumping on the trampoline and we blowed bubbles when we were kicking we had to hold the wall so we don't  fall all the way to the bottom of the pool so we can learn to swim without holding the wall.

We learnt lots of swimming tricks such as: Side stroke, free style, back float and a belly float. We even did rotation which you have to be on our belly for 5 seconds than we had to roll and stay on our back for 5 seconds
