Sewing.

As my creativity part of CAS I decided to do sewing.  This is my second time to so it and I really enjoy it.  I feel that I improved from the first time as now I can sew faster and more accurate.  The picture which I am supposed to get at the end of the sewing are flowers.  My aim is to sew without looking at the picture and improvise.  I hope after two weeks I will be able to finish two flowers and if I finish everything on time I will donate it to the orphanage.

Going to an orphanage.

I am planning to go to the orphanage while the holidays in october.
Gils from school will help me with the activities,  each of us has to come with a plan of what activities we are going to do. Because the nearest holiday is Halloween I decided that it will be nice to first teach russian children more about the Holiday itself and then play different types of games.
My plan is that first if possible we will do the power point presentation with pictures and videos.
After a small introduction we will play Halloween games.
1)First we will make a pumpkin from the colorful papers,  which we will bring and play a pumpkin game.
2)The second game will be "the cat game" children will have to pin the tail on the hand made cat,  which we will do together with children,  with closed eyes.
a child who wins will get a candy,  however at the end everyone will get a candy and a price.
3) By next week I will come with more ideas and start to buy candies and presents.
We will also try to watch a movie with children.  this depends on if they have a television and how big is it.
We will try our best to make a real Halloween party for children.

Swimming

Swimming is one of the sports which I really enjoy.
Since the start of the year I went swimming once every week.  While swimming I mostly use the front crawl.  I've been doing the font crawl and backstroke since the childhood however I found out that I didn't breath correctly while doing the front crawl.
These two weeks I was practicing on my breathing during the front crawl.  I saw that it is not as easy as it seemed when you follow the rules. Usually I kept my head out of the water because that way I could see and breath better.  Although it was harder to turn your head every time because of the water and the wave and breathing in the triangle between the upper arm,  lower arm and the water line.  I found it to be challenging and learned that breathing in a correct way is one of the important aspects in swimming.
I can only front crawl and backstroke.  For the next two weeks I will try to learn more techniques of swimming.  The first one which I want to practice is breaststroking.
