Swimming

Today I went to the lagoon pools. It was our first swimming lesson. My coach was Shanti. We got in to the pool. First we did a streamline stroke. This is when we put our arms up behind our ears and we kept ours hands together. Then we had to hold the board and swim up and down with it. Then we sat on the board and floated on it. We were pushing ourselves while floating. Then Shanti grabbed the pool toys and we had to find them. My favourite part was finding the pool toys and floating on the board. I enjoyed learning to swim with Shanti.

Tangrams

Today I learned how to make tangrams.

I rearranged the pieces to make animal shapes.

First I made a square piece of paper because tangrams are made from a big square

Then I folded the squares into various and cut them out.

Lastly, I tried to make different animal shapes from the tangram Pieces.
