Swimming lessons ended this week so I took my camera in. The girls had a blast and learned the fundamentals in swimming. Emily still can't swim without some form of floatation devise.
Good news, she has another 6 weeks to "get it". All the children enjoyed the swim/gym program that they were willing to offer another class to start back to back with the session that just ended. The girls were bummed that swimming lessons were ending but rejoiced when I told them I signed them up for another session.
Rebecca was able to swim under water before the lessons but is working on keeping her body at the surface of the water while her face is still in the water.
During the "gym" aspect of the class, they were working on basketball skills. Rebecca loved it but Emily dreaded it week after week. She learned how to dribble the ball and can almost shoot the basket ball. She still holds firm to her stance that she will not play basket ball next winter.
The next session of classes, the children will be outside working on soccer drills. Emily was excited to hear this as she loves soccer. Becca, on the other hand, would prefer to stay in and shoot baskets all day. Funny since Becca was so gung-ho on soccer before playing basketball.
We had a neat class with co-op yesterday that I would love to share with you- pictures and all. However, I need a shower and to get the girls started on their schooling. We have some errands to run today so it'll be a busy but fun one! Until next time...
