Swimming Lessons – 2nd Session





Lukas finished his first week of session 2 swimming lessons. Landon and I've been taking him every night from 8-9. He is in level 2 this time and is doing extremely well. 

Things they are learning:
pool rule discussions
alligator arms
bubble bobs
kicking on the side of pool
pushing off the edge of the pool and going into front strokes
rock game – they have to drop the rock, let it sink, and then swim to the bottom and get it
airplane, rocket, push stroke (it's a back stroke)
floating back & stomach
jumping of the dives

At the end of class, they got to use the water slide. All the kids got to go twice. The slide is Lukas' favorite. He goes down all by himself now! We all went to his lesson tonight so I was able to get some pictures.
