ONE PARENT MUST ACCOMPANY CHILD INTO THE POOL PRESCHOOL AQUATICS LEVEL The objectives of Level 1 are to learn the most elementary aquatic skills, which children continue to build on as they progress through the Preschool Aquatics and Learn-to-Swim levels. At this first level, children start developing good attitudes and safe practices around the water. LEARN-TO-SWIM American Red Cross Learn-to-Swim teaches aquatic and personal water safety skills in a logical progression. It consists of six levels. Throughout the levels, participants build on their basic skills to learn various propulsive movements on the front, back and side. As the levels increase, participants learn to refine the different strokes and build endurance. Each level includes exit skills assessments that put together many of the skills learned in the level. LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 1 The objectives of Level 1 are to learn basic personal water safety information and skills, to help participants feel comfortable in the water and to enjoy the water safely. At this level, participants start developing positive attitudes, good swimming habits and safe practices in and around the water. LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 2 The objective of Level 2 is to give participants success with fundamental skills. Participants learn to float without support and to recover to a vertical position. This level marks the beginning of true locomotion skills and lays the foundation for future strokes. LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 3 The objective of Level 3 is to build on previously learned skills by providing additional guided practice. Participants learn to survival float, swim the front crawl and elementary backstroke. Participants are also introduced to scissors and dolphin kicks and build on the fundamentals of treading water as well as headfirst entries (diving). LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 4 The objectives of Level 4 are to improve skills and increase endurance by swimming familiar strokes (front crawl, elementary backstroke) for greater distances. Participants add the arms to the scissors kick for the sidestroke. Participants also start to learn the back crawl, breaststroke and butterfly and the basics of turning at a wall. LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 5 The objectives of Level 5 are coordination and refinement of strokes. Participants refine their performance of all strokes (front crawl, back crawl, butterfly, breaststroke, elementary backstroke and sidestroke) and increase their distances. Flip turns on the front and back are also introduced. LEARN-TO-SWIM LEVEL 6 The objectives of Level 6 are to refine strokes so participants swim them with ease, efficiency, power and smoothness and over greater distances.
