On Wednesday we went to Manurewa Swimming pools for swimming lessons. Swimming is great because it’s fun and helps your health and fitness. It’s also good for strengthening your lungs and health.
Have you been to swimming lessons? Well in fact we went this week. I had a lot of fun but it was also educational. You learn how to float and swim. You also learn how you can save your life and other peoples too. It is an essential skill that should be taught in school. It isn’t like math, reading or writing.
Swimming improves your health and fitness by being active. It’s good for asthma and building muscle. When you become a competitive swimmer, that increases your stamina. You also get better at swimming like 1500 meters or even if you are just starting to get better at swimming you could swim 50 meters.
In the water you can create friendships with people you don’t usually hang around with. You also learn great team work and how to be a good teammate. We can learn how to have great sportsmanship if we have competitions. You learn different techniques for example: butterfly, Backstroke and freestyle etc.
Swimming is fun and educational so you should do it. If there’s swimming at school you should take the opportunity because it could really save your life one day.
I agree, Rosery..swimming lessons are really important! Well done on the structure you used, I can tell you planned out your writing and knew what you were going to talk about in each paragraph. Next time, try to make complex sentences by adding your ideas togehter and explaining them more. You have a lot of simple sentences with one idea and then a full stop. You could make them complex by using conjunctions such as however, although, and because to join two ideas together. Looking forward to reading your next blog!
