swim classes

Physical Education

• The child has learned basic water safety rules, such as never swimming alone and always having an adult present.
• They have developed fundamental swimming skills, including floating on their back and kicking while holding onto the side of the pool.
• The child has gained an understanding of different strokes, such as freestyle and backstroke, and has practiced them with the instructor's guidance.
• They have improved their coordination and motor skills through activities like treading water and diving for objects from the pool floor.

For continued development, encourage the child to practice swimming outside of class, whether in a pool or natural body of water, always under adult supervision. Additionally, participating in water-related games and exercises can make swimming more enjoyable and help improve their skills further.
