[quote=Anonymous]What happens in each swim unit will vary based on the swim instructor at the pool and the overall skill level of the group. Send you child’s PE teacher a quick email asking what the unit looks like. Students should also spend a day doing water safety- using life jackets, practicing help positions, trying some rescue techniques and a day playing water polo- my students love water polo day! Generally, we spend the 1st 3 days assessing students levels, practicing kicking, breathing etc and some students do go to the lanes to practice more strokes and swimming for fitness. Signed- an APS PE teacher at a school where not everyone can swim![/quote]
