Swimming Snapshot of Learning I want to share this with you because I want you to know how I got better at swimming. On the first day of swimming, we jumped in the pool and then we had a choice to swim to the far end or we could choose to swim to the flag. I swam to the flag because I didn’t like swimming. On the second day of swimming, we went to the other side of the poo l to put on life jackets after we had to jump into the pool then we held hands to make a circle we also swam while holding each other's life jacket and go back around.

In music, we had to choose songs for the next week we chose our song and after we chose our instruments I was left Ukulele but I wasn’t that good at it so AJ and I switched instruments and I got to use the piano. When I learned my part, our group was waiting for the performance when the music group was ready we had to perform and our band was first up. I was scared to play but I played a little bit. In music, the key competencies I used were thinking because I thought of the right answer to write down when we were trying to guess the song and instruments.I also used relating to others because I was listening to the teacher when she was talking. My next steps are to manage myself and to participate and contribute to my learning beca...
