"I can swim" - Program for general swimming lessons This is a proposal of additional sports activities for students of grades 1-3 of primary schools throughout the country.  
Students of SP Bełdów implement this program at the "Olympic" swimming in Aleksandrów Łódzki


Swimming is perceived as the most versatile and safe sport, perfectly affecting human fitness, contributing to increasing the overall efficiency of the body. Little swimmers have better motor coordination, are more fit, show more courage. Water exercises and swimming are also one of the most effective ways to prevent and correct posture defects.

Board games are one of the popular forms of entertainment. They are a great way to spend free time, an alternative to television, computers, smartphones. They not only entertain, but also develop imagination, teach prediction, decision-making, fair play and proper functioning in a group. Chess is the most famous. Each country has its favourites. There are plenty of board games you can buy in the shop, but the kids are happy to make their own games. Board games are used during lessons (learning to play chess), but mainly children play them during breaks or after lessons (during club classes). On October 10, we celebrate an unusual holiday - Board Games Day. On this occasion, children could bring their games to school. A Board Games Tournament and a Chess Tournament were organised. We encouraged children to involve their parents and siblings in playing board games  at home.

ICT tools can be used regardless of the subject taught. They allow to bring out the creativity of students, while contributing to building in them a sense of responsibility for learning. In our schools, children start their adventure with coding from an early age. Programming develops creativity and logical thinking. During a pandemic, it is also a big plus that you can learn from home and what is important especially for children - combine learning with fun. Programming classes contribute to the development of logical and analytical thinking. They have a good effect on the exercise of imagination, as well as independent coping with problems. A lot of time was devoted to coding and programming on the occasion of Code Week, which was organized in our schools. On this occasion, students visited preschoolers and taught programming in the Scratch Jr program, together they created simple animations. Others used the WeDo program and Lego bricks, Ozobots, Mbots, Blubots and Beebots. Teachers use more and more programs and applications in their work, which is especially helpful in online work. In order to enrich their work and skills, they also had many trainings.

Break time at school is definitely one of the most important period pupils are waiting for. They can refresh themselves and feel relaxed after their work. It’s a great opportunity for energy release and physical exercise, socializing with peers and having fun. 
 During the break times in our school students engage in different kind of activities. Some of them walk or sit in different corners of the ground and discuss their favorite topics, some of them make use of the time to copy homework from others’ notebook and some of them are actively involved in different kind of games. These depend on the weather conditions. 
 On warm and sunny days students have access to outdoor areas. They can go outside and spend their free time on the playground.  They usually do some team sports such as volleyball, basketball or football. Younger children make use of   slides and swings. Some children just skip the rope.  
On rainy days and at other times when the pupils can’t go outside they spend time on indoor games. Older pupils like playing table tennis. Younger children play “What’s the time Mr Wolf”, “Freeze tag”, “Hide and seek” , “Hopscotch” or table football. 
Mr Wolf – to play the game we just need enough clear space in the play area so that the children run around safely. One player is the wolf and stands at the opposite end of the space to the other players. The players call out “what’s the time Mr Wolf?” who answers with the number of their choosing. Players can then advance that number of steps towards the wolf, for example - it’s 7  o’clock, they move forward seven steps. When the wolf decides the other players are close enough, they answer ”dinner time” and must tag on the other players before they reach the starting point. If Mr Wolf tags a player, that player becomes the new Mr Wolf. 
Freeze tag – One person is “it” and must run around tagging the other players. Once tagged, a player must freeze in place until an untagged runner frees them. If the “it” player successfully freezes all the runners the game needs to be reset. 
Hide and seek – The game is played by one chosen player counting to a predetermined number with eyes closed while the other players hide. The player has to locate all the other players. The player found last is the winner. 
Hopscotch – players take turns to throw the bean bag or some other item onto the grid of the hopscotch diagram and then must hop their way through the course, skipping the square that the bag landed on. The first player to complete one course for every numbered square on the court wins the game.   
Table football – it is a table –top game based on football. It’s aim is to move the ball into the opponent’s goal by manipulating rods which have figures attached.
