In Reply.— If all swimming were limited to pools that were always supervised by a lifeguard or competent adult, we would not have approximately 1,500 children drowning each year. The risk of drowning or near-drowning for a child with epilepsy is four times that of other children. The risks to children who have been seizure-free for 1 year are only minimally greater than for the general population if they have stable therapeutic anticonvulsant levels, are mentally normal, and are well supervised in the water.1

The aim of this paper is to examine the attitude towards the implementation of swimming in the teaching of physical and health education of children. The introduction of swimming as a mandatory program content of physical education is one of the possible innovations of this type which was the subject of the research and analysis of this paper. On the basis of theoretical analysis, "The Questionnaire on Swimming in Physical Education," containing 17 statements which are answered via five-point Likert-type assessment scales was constructed. A total sample of 104 subjects, coaches, teachers of physical education and sport, active senior swimmers, and parents with children between the ages of six and ten were interviewed. The data on the socio-demographic characteristics, swimming, and sports habits were collected. The results of the descriptive statistical analysis and the reliability analysis by Crombach's Alpha method (a = 0.75) indicate good metric characteristics of the questionnaire. The results of the descriptive statistical analysis show an extremely positive attitude of parents when it comes to swimming in physical education (M = 4.52, SD = 0.29). The descriptive statistical analysis supports the assumption that health and recreational goals of swimming (M = 4.81) are significantly ahead of sports and competition (M = 2.33). When it comes to assessing the emotions associated with swimming, it can also be concluded that recreation (M = 4.85) and entertainment (M = 4.66) are more important than competition (M = 3.72), i.e., that they provoke more positive emotions among children. The results of the variance analysis show that there are no statistically significant differences in attitudes towards swimming in physical education in the subsamples formed according to socio-demographic variables. The obtained results are primarily a confirmation of the positive educational and developmental effects of swimming. Furthermore, many problems exist with the realization of the idea of introducing swimming in regular classes. For such actions, the most important aspects include organization and cooperation of schools, sports centers and the local community, while the financial resources that need to be invested are not so great if the development benefits for children are taken into account. The observed extremely positive attitude of the subjects speaks to their readiness to help and support the implementation of such programs.

Abstract Objective Investigating the extent to which providing children with free swimming access during school holidays increased participation in swimming and whether this effect differed according to the socioeconomic deprivation of the neighbourhoods in which children lived. Setting A highly disadvantaged local authority (LA) in North West England. Intervention Provision of children with free swimming during the summer holidays. Outcome measures Number of children swimming, and the number of swims, per 100 population in 2014. Design Comparative regression discontinuity investigating the extent to which participation rates amongst children aged 5–15 were greater in the intervention LA compared to a similar control LA. We estimated the differential effect of the intervention across five groups, defined by quintiles of area deprivation. Results Free swimming during the summer holidays was associated with an additional 6% of children swimming (95% CI: 4–9%) and an additional 33 swims per 100 children per year (95% CI: 21–44). The effects were greatest in areas with intermediate levels of deprivation (quintiles 3 and 4) within this deprived LA. Conclusion Providing free facilities for children in disadvantaged areas is likely to increase swimming participation and may help reduce inequalities in physical activity.

There is little information in literary sources about the programme’s content of formation of primary swimming skills, the choice of exercises on land and water as well as the common effectiveness of their compilation programme relating to 6–7 year-old children. This question is hardly analysed even in various papers analyzing primary training of young swimmers in Lithuania.
Hypothesis: it is likely that children who will complete the primary teaching swimming programme which consists of 16 trainings will acquire such primary swimming skills that will be needed for learning their further swimming techniques as well as they will become physically stronger.
The aim of the work: to prepare 6–7 year-old children teaching swimming programme consisting of 16 trainings by developing their primary swimming skills and evaluate its effectiveness.
By summarizing all the results of this research, we have examined that our primary teaching swimming programme of five skills has been considered effective: the majority of children analyzed improved their primary swimming skills. It can be established that our hypothesis was supported. Children that completed our designed primary teaching swimming programme have gained primary swimming skills that are needed to learn other swimming techniques in their further learning process. Finally, by having the ability to complete various tasks, they have become physically stronger.

We present the analysis of sports motor skills development among children with musculoskeletal system disorders by the means of adaptive swimming. The developed methods of sports training for children with musculoskeletal system lesion in adaptive swimming at the initial stage was designed for three years. All children were students of the adaptive swimming school. The structure and duration of classes, the content of each part of the class on land and in water are presented. Features of the preparation and organization of classes are described. It was noted that when mastering sports swimming methods, back crawl is easier for children with musculoskeletal system lesion, since the breathing process proceeds naturally, and it is not necessary to lower the face into the water, it is easier for children to coordinate movements with breathing. The obtained results show the effectiveness of the developed program of sports training for the initial stage of children with musculoskeletal system lesion by adaptive swimming, both for learning swimming techniques and for correcting the deficiencies in physical, psychomotor development and social adaptation of children.

Background. The drowning death rate of Chinese students ranks among the top three in the world, and drowning has become an urgent problem for the country and society to solve. Objective. To test whether traditional swimming teaching can improve students’ knowledge and skills of water safety and reduce the probability of drowning in China. Methods. A total of 82 second-grade students in elementary school were selected as experimental subjects, and the repeated measures analysis of variance experiment design was used to carry out the research. Results. After the experiment, the swimming safety education model significantly increased the scores of swimming safety knowledge and skills and the difference was statistically significant (t = 4.060, 5.325, P < 0.05 ); the attitude and behavior scores decreased, and the difference was statistically significant (t = −4.392, −2.201, P < 0.05 ). After the experiment, the swimming safety education model is more effective in teaching swimming safety knowledge, attitude, and behavior than the traditional swimming teaching, and the difference is statistically significant (t = 2.699, 3.852, 4.308, P < 0.05 ). After the experiment, when the traditional swimming teaching model is compared with the control group, the difference in swimming safety skills was statistically significant (t = 4.704, P < 0.05 ) and other dimensions were homogeneous. In conclusion, the traditional swimming teaching can only improve student’s swimming safety skills but cannot reduce student’s drowning injuries. The swimming safety education model is superior to the traditional swimming teaching in terms of swimming safety knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors. Recommendations. For beginners in swimming, the teaching content of swimming self-rescue skills and swimming safety knowledge should be added.

To the Editor.— In the article on prevention of childhood injuries, Greensher states that "it is prudent to recommend limiting swimming (in patients with epilepsy) until these patients are seizure-free for 1 year." We believe that all activities that children—and adults—undertake carry some risk. The risk is slightly greater for a child with epilepsy than for one without. The dimensions of that risk depend on the frequency and type of seizures. However, there are major risks in limiting activities for children and adults.

Teaching swimming in all civilized countries of the world solves tasks of national importance. It is relevant to teach swimming especially to younger schoolchildren: as one of the main means of preserving health; the main effective factor in preventing accidents on the water. The purpose of the study was to experimentally substantiate the effectiveness of the formation of swimming skills in children of primary school age based on programming. Research methods: theoretical analysis, testing, pedagogical experiment, methods of mathematical analysis and statistics. The research was conducted at educational and training swimming classes on the basis of the summer health camp "Red Sails" (Skadovsk) in the summer of 2020. The camp shift lasted 14 days. 15 people (9 girls and 6 boys) aged 8-9 took part in the study. The article presents a developed algorithmic program for teaching swimming to younger schoolchildren in the conditions of a health camp, which is conventionally divided into three stages according to the stages of motor skill formation. At the end of the camp shift, the test results and the learning coefficient indicator (0.80), which increased by 0.30 units, testify to the effectiveness of the implementation of the author's algorithmized swimming training program, which ensured the achievement of the set goal. The research does not exhaust all aspects of the problem of teaching swimming to younger schoolchildren. Further scientific research can take place in the field of determining the main prerequisites for the effective formation of swimming skills of children of primary school age in open water bodies.

Water activities (special swimming for those who are proficient) have many benefits. Can be compared, children learn to walk on the floor with children learning to swim directly. The different is that one is on the floor and theother is in the water. Children who learn to walk on the floor only a few motor muscles that move. While swimming all the motor muscles move. This means that children who learn to swim from a young age certainly have better motor skill. Physical improvent is more advanced in children who do not swim. Apart from being physical, swimming also stimulates more sctivr hormone, such as the hormone adrenaline. So that the end result, the level the end result, the level of intelligence can also be high. In development countries preschool aquatic sports progrsm are more focused. Introducing motormodeic aspect for basic swimming skills. Children are not taught to survive indepentently in the water and enjoy the activites they do. Swimming skil can be acquired more readily at the age of 5 years. Although some children younger that 4 years require longer introduction to learn swimming skill. Physically the child will succed in doing swimming movements after the muscle fibers and nerves are mature. The purpose of this community service activity is to share experiences in water activities for children from an early age, that is, between the ages of 1 – 4 years it will be better for children to learn quickly, and avoid the possibility of having an accident drowning in a pool.

Aims: To investigate to what extent socioeconomic differences in swimming abilities persist among children in the city of Malmö, Sweden, after a community-level swimming intervention programme in public primary schools. Methods: A compulsory swimming education programme was launched in 2014 in second grade (at age 8) in all public primary schools in Malmö, Sweden. Data for the present study on sociodemographic conditions and self-reported swimming ability in fourth grade (age 10) were used for the last birth cohort unexposed ( n = 1695) and the first birth cohort exposed ( n = 1773) to the intervention. Results: The swimming ability was 78 and 77%, respectively, in the pre- and post-intervention cohorts. Significantly lower self-reported swimming ability was found both pre- and post-intervention among children with support activities in school, with parents born outside Europe, North America and Australia, with manual working, unemployed or studying parents and in children enrolled in schools with socioeconomic index below median. Conclusions: The findings do not suggest that sociodemographic differences in swimming ability have decreased in the first birth cohort exposed to the community-level intervention in Malmö. Striking differences in self-reported swimming ability were noted when the children reached the fourth grade both pre- and post-intervention with marked lower abilities in socially disadvantaged groups. Monitoring of swimming abilities should continue for the present, and similar interventions aimed at reducing inequalities among children. Efforts to increase water comfort at preschool age ought to be considered.

We present the analysis of sports motor skills development in children with musculoskeletal disorders by means of adaptive swimming. The developed methods of sports training for children with musculoskeletal disorders in adaptive swimming at the initial stage were designed for three years. All participants were students of the adaptive swimming school. The significance of the presented study lies in the fact that the knowledge about the content of private adaptive swimming techniques in the system of sports training for children with musculoskeletal disorders is analyzed, presented and supplemented. We expand the concept of the effectiveness of adaptive swimming use in increasing the level of physical activity and sports preparedness of children with musculoskeletal disorders to solve the problems of their social integration. The provisions reflecting the structure and content of the educational process of adaptive swimming at the initial stage of sports training are disclosed. Features of the training process depend on the degree of motor and functional capabilities of children with musculoskeletal disorders. An analysis of the pedagogical experiment results is presented, which reflects a change in indicators of physical development, physical and functional fitness of children with musculoskeletal disorders.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractMiddle-ear effusion in children is considered to be the result of multiple factors. Swimming in chlorinated water has been incriminated as one such possible aetiological factor. To test the hypothesis that the chemical disinfectant in the swimming pool is probably responsible for the Eustachian tube dysfunction, 30 children between the ages of four and eight years were selected at random from the community health department computer records and were randomly allocated into two groups. Eustachian tube function was assessed by standard tympanometry both immediately prior to swimming (control) and 30 to 45 minutes following swimming in Group 1 and approximately 14 hours following swimming in Group 2. The results of the study showed no significant change (p>0.05) between pre- and post-swimming tympanometry. It is therefore concluded that swimming on the surface of chlorinated water does not compromise the Eustachian tube function in children with healthy middle ears.

The effectiveness test determines the level of deaf swimming-start skills of children after being given a grabstart swimming training model. Based on the average pretest-posttest value of the experimental group that were 49.92 to 56.18, there was an increase of 6.26 while the average value of the pretest-posttest control group was 50.02 to 52.20 with an increase of 2.18. Thus, it could be seen that training using the grabstart swimming training model using video media is more effective than the control group. We concluded that (1) the grabstart training model of swimming sports using video media can be developed and applied to deaf children, (2) the grabstart training model of swimming sport using video media is effective in improving the deaf children's swimming-start skills.

This study aims to apply the swimming therapy method in improving gross motor skills of autistic children. Therapy basically needs to be given to build a better condition. Therapy must also be carried out routinely so that what is lacking in children can be fulfilled gradually. Data collection was carried out by observation and performance tests. In the swimming pool, therapy activities are held twice a week. Barriers experienced by children are the child's gross motor skills that are lacking, so that the ability to balance and activities that require gross motor skills is not optimal. The reason for conducting this research is because children experience obstacles when carrying out activities that require gross motor skills, so a swimming therapy method is needed that suits the needs of autistic children. The research method used was an experiment with Single Subject Research (SSR) using an ABA design. The research findings showed that the application of the swimming therapy method had an effect on increasing gross motor skills in one of the autistic children. This increase was evident from the increase in the mean level from the baseline-1 phase (A1), which was 33%, to the intervention phase (B), which was 52.5% to the baseline-2 phase (A2) which is 81%. It is recommended to develop a swimming therapy program for improve gross motor skills can use the swimming therapy method.

Swimming is a form of physical activity and a life-saving skill. However, only a few studies have identified swimming ability classifiers in preschool children. This pilot cross-sectional study aimed to find anthropometric (AM) and motor competence (MC) predictors of swimming ability in preschool children, by building classifiers of swimming ability group (SAG) membership. We recruited 92 children (girls n = 45) aged 5–6 years and took the AM and MC measurements in accordance with the reference manual and using the KTK battery test (motor quotient, MQ), respectively. A linear discriminant analysis tested a classification model of preschoolers’ swimming ability (SAG: POOR, GOOD, EXCELLENT) based on gender, age, AM, and MC variables and extracted one significant canonical discriminant function (model fit: 61.2%) that can differentiate (group centroids) POOR (−1.507), GOOD (0.032), and EXCELLENT (1.524). The MQ total was identified as a significant classifier, which absolutely contributed to the discriminant function that classifies children’s swimming ability as POOR (standardized canonical coefficient: 1.186), GOOD (1.363), or EXCELLENT (1.535) with an accuracy of 64.1%. Children with higher MQ total ought to be classified into higher SAG; thus, the classification model of SAG based on the MQ total is presented.

Full textAbstract:
Motor coordination has a crucial role in various physical activities and sports, highlighting its significance in overall movement proficiency and performance. This study aimed to compare motor coordination in children engaged in multisport versus swimming activities. The participants of this study included 180 boys and girls (girls = 87) aged 8.25 years ± 0.89. A total of three groups were included: group 1 consisted of inactive children, group 2 included children participating in swimming, and group 3 included children enrolled in multisport. Motor coordination was assessed using the Kiphard–Schilling body coordination test, evaluated by motor quotient (MQ): walking backwards, hopping for height, jumping sideways, and moving sideways. Additionally, a total motor quotient (Total MQ) was calculated based on the performance in all four tests. ANOVA revealed a significant difference in Total MQ and all subtests between the groups (p < 0.01). A significant difference in Total MQ was found not only between the inactive and multisport groups (Diff = 19.8000; 95%CI = 13.1848 to 26.4152; p = 0.001) but also between the multisport and swimming groups (Diff = 12.8000; 95%CI = 6.3456 to 19.2544; p = 0.001). In conclusion, the results revealed that children involved in multisport activities exhibited significantly better motor coordination compared to both the swimming group and the inactive group. Therefore, to enhance the growth of motor coordination abilities, it is crucial that parents, instructors, and coaches encourage kids to engage in multisport physical activities on a daily basis.

Full textAbstract:
The article examines the peculiarities of teaching swimming skills to children of primary school age. An important condition for successfully teaching children to swim is the sequence of learning movements: from simple movement on the bottom to learning certain swimming movements (sliding, swimming with a board in hands or in an easy way, etc.), because this is the key to mastering more complex swimming techniques from diving up to the waist to full execution exercises at a greater depth. Purpose: determination of methodical and organizational features of swimming training for children of primary school age. Methods of work: theoretical research methods were used in the work: analysis, comparison, induction, deduction, systematization, and generalization of scientific and methodical literature. Results: because of the conducted research, the general didactic and organizational principles of building classes during initial swimming training were clarified. It has been established that the conscious and active attitude of children to exercises and games in the water is of good importance for achieving positive results in learning to swim, because understanding the meaning of the tasks stimulates interested and active performance of them, contributes to the gradual assimilation and awareness of the exercises. The basis for mastering swimming skills by children aged 7-9 is the formation of stable neuro-coordinative connections that arise as a result of repeated exercises for sliding in a horizontal streamlined body position with further coordination of technical elements and breathing. Conclusions: Despite the availability of publications on the methods of teaching swimming, questions regarding the regulation of physical load during the use of the game method in the pool are practically not disclosed, which complicates its application in classes and requires further study.

Primitive reflexes is an automatic muscle reactions which are only present in the first few months, but can remain active in healthy children, thus, impacting on motor proficiency. There is little evidence how primitive reflexes influence on swimming skills acquisition by healthy children. The aim of the study is to examine how primitive reflexes influence swimming skills acquisition by healthy children. Subjects: two 7-year-old girls. Methods: Checklists by Oh et al., (2011) were used to evaluate swimming skill proficiency at swimming lesson 8 and 16. The results were represented as a percentage of the possible maximal score. The testing of the asymmetrical tonic neck reflex, the symmetrical tonic neck reflex, and the tonic labyrinthine reflex was done using Blythe’s, 5-point rating scale. The analysis was carried out using descriptive method. The first girl showed two reflexes at level 1, while the second girl demonstrated all tested reflexes at level 1, 2 and 3. The girl with less total score of reflexes (8%) achieved a better level of swimming proficiency (from 73% to 77%) than the girl with higher (25%) severity of these reflex (from 21% to 33%.). The obteined data evidence about influence of primitive reflexes on swimming skill acquisition by healthy children.

Abstract Swimming is an excellent form of aerobic exercise and is an essential life skill. Many children with atopic dermatitis (AD) are advised not to swim because of concerns about negative impacts on their skin disease, and some children with AD do not swim because they are self-conscious about the appearance of their skin. We aimed to review the available literature on swimming and AD and scientifically analyse the potential impact of all components of swimming in AD – water, skin barrier, swimming gear and exercise. Studies examined the impact of swimming on the skin barrier and relative contraindications to swimming. Constituents of water that may affect AD include hardness, pH, temperature, antiseptics and other chemicals. Potential interventions to reduce damage included emollient application, special swim gear, and showering post-submersion. The benefits of swimming as a form of exercise in AD included reduced sweating, cardiorespiratory fitness and maintenance of healthy weight. Drawbacks of swimming as a form of exercise in AD included the limited benefit on bone mineral density. Future research should examine the impact of swimming on flares of AD using noninvasive biomarkers as well as clinical severity assessment, and assess the role for different types of emollient as an intervention for optimal eczema control. Based on the review we provide new guidance on how to advise parents and children with AD regarding general measures, swim wear, and pool-side interventions to minimize any deleterious effect on skincare, and maximize opportunities to swim.

The purpose of the study was to estimate the effect of swimming lessons in a school sports club on the initial swimming fitness of primary school-aged children. Materials and methods. The study participants were 73 primary school-aged children (‘Sportrend’ school sports swimming club). The study used theoretical analysis of scientific and methodological literature, the system of control exercises by O. Obrazhei revised taking into account the contingent of the research to assess the swimming fitness of primary school students under the conditions of a school sports club, and methods of mathematical statistics. Results. We propose a methodology for assessing the swimming readiness of younger schoolchildren under the conditions of a school sports club. The growth rate of such indicators as reaction to the unsupported position in the water and underwater breath-holding turned out to be lower compared to other indicators. At the same time, the rates of face submersion in the water and squatting in the water increased. The increase in initial swimming skills in children was 49.3% at the control stage compared to the baseline, and the average growth rate was 22.2%. In the assessment of children’s initial skills at the end of the training compared to the beginning, the maximum average rate of increase was recorded for the ability to push off and slide (30.1%), the ability to perform a star float (27.4%), and squatting in the water (26.4%), thus swimming lessons have a positive effect on the initial swimming readiness of junior school students. Conclusions. Statistically significant (p<0.05) improvement of primary school students’ results on control exercises at all stages of diagnostics of their initial swimming skills formation confirms the positive effect of swimming lessons in a school sports club.

Summary Aim: The aim of this study is to present the results of the evaluation of the Preparatory Swimming Intervention Programme for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (PAS). Methods: The study used a method of participating observation by which evaluators diagnosed swimming skills. The diagnostic tool was Štochl’s scale of swimming skills evaluation (Štochl et al. 2005). A nonparametric sign test was chosen for the analysis of the results. Results: The results of the sign test showed that all probands studied had an overall improvement in all skills between measurements 1 and 2, 3 and 4 and also 1 and 4. In a comparison of individual probands, swimming skills improved between the 1st and 2nd measurements in two of them. The third proband achieved the greatest improvement between the 3rd and 4th measurements, the fourth between the 1st and 4th measurements. The fifth proband did not achieve a statistically significant improvement in the acquisition of swimming skills. Conclusions: The results of this study show that for the area of preparatory swimming lessons for children with PAS, it is possible to use the Štochl scale (Štochl 2002) for diagnosing swimming skills, thus enabling quantitative data to monitor the level of acquired swimming skills in these individuals.

Bukit Meutuah Village, East Langsa District Langsa City is one of the villages that has the potential to contribute to gifted children because children are very fond of sports and have a high level of enthusiasm for sports activities. The location of the village is adjacent to a river that is often used by children to play and swim. However, with the existence of several existing facilities and infrastructure, the village has not been said to be fully accomplished in the field of sports both at the village and sub-district levels. This study aims to determine the swimming talent and potential of children aged 11-12 years in Bukit Meutuah Village, East Langsa District. This research was conducted by conducting a Talent Scouting Test with the Sport Search method which consisted of 10 test items which included height, weight, sitting height, arm span, throwing and catching tennis balls, throwing basketballs, jumping upright, running agility, sprinting 40 meters and multi-stage running. Sampling in this study used a total sampling technique, with quantitative descriptive research methods. Data analysis matched the test results obtained with the aptitude test scoring norm table and used percentages to describe the frequency and percentage obtained. The results showed that in the short distance swimming, all children as many as 25 people (100%) had no potential or were not talented to become candidates for short distance swimming athletes. While in long-distance swimming as many as 5 children (20%) have potential talent in long-distance swimming and as many as 20 children (80%) do not have potential or talent in long-distance swimming.

Aim. The purpose of this study is: (a) to examine how swimming coaches perceive their communication skills and preferences; (b) to better understand the behaviour of coach-athlete communication during practice sessions; (c) to explore similarities and differences between coaches’ declared and actual communication behaviour. Basic procedures. To accomplish this purpose, 10 swimming coaches (6 males, 4 females; mage=31 years) were invited to take part in the two-part study. First, the participants were asked to answer 6 questions about their communicational behaviours towards children during typical swimming practices. Then, during a real swimming session, both verbal and non-verbal communication was recorded (content of the message, recipient of the message, body posture, gestures, proxemics, vocal aspects). Results. The obtained results show that the coaches used six of communication behaviours. The results revealed a discrepancy between the coaches’ declared and observed communication preferences. The data analysis shows that the coaches provided both feedback (40.7%) and feedforward (59. 3%) information. In the research, it is shown that swimming teachers used non-verbal messages more often (63%) than verbal ones. Conclusions. In the teaching process, it is important that the trainer/coach provides not only information regarding the tasks to be performed but also information improving the atmosphere and also the quality of the exercises performed.

In the last decade, many comprehensive programs for physical education of children in preschool institutions have been approved in Ukraine, but they do not take into account the great potential of modern innovative methods and technologies. Therefore, their research opens up new opportunities for practical improvement of the process of teaching preschoolers to swim. The purpose of the article is to outline modern innovative methods and technologies for teaching swimming to preschool children, which can be gradually introduced into the process of physical education in preschool educational institutions of Ukraine. During the study of the problem, the authors used the methods of analysis of scientific sources, specification, comparison, and pedagogical observation. According to the results of the research, taking into account the personnel and material and technical capabilities of preschool educational institutions, it is recommended to introduce swimming lessons using general developmental and dance music-rhythmic exercises from the arsenal of artistic gymnastics, synchronized swimming, aquastep. The authors draw attention to swimming lessons with elements of aquaaerobics, hydroaerobics, hydroplastics, funk aerobics, children's yoga in a playful form, as well as classes in applied swimming. The article points to the experience of studying the possibility of multi-phase swimming training in deep water conditions. Music-rhythmic exercises in water have already partially entered the practice of teaching children, but all their possibilities are not only not used, but even not thoroughly studied. With preschoolers who have already mastered the basic swimming skills, figure-swimming lessons can be held, where complexes of choreographic elements are performed using gymnastic and acrobatic combinations. Applied swimming lessons are designed to form skills in children that allow them to perform various actions in water in non-standard situations of everyday life. Children's yoga in the water helps to form a correct posture, strengthen muscular corset, promotes concentration of attention, coordination of breathing and development of all physical qualities, especially flexibility and strength. Innovative methods and technologies of teaching older preschoolers to swim can be used in lessons held in the conditions of a deep swimming pool. On the lessons, not only standard, but also modular equipment should be used. In the process of introducing innovative technologies into the process of teaching swimming to children of preschool age, it is necessary to adhere to such technological criteria as scientific, systematic, structured, procedural, and efficient.

Background: The purpose of this study was to compare physiological responses during continuous and intermittent swimming at intensity corresponding to critical speed (CS: slope of the distance vs. time relationship using 200 and 400-m tests) with maximal lactate steady state (MLSS) in children and adolescents. Methods: CS and the speed corresponding to MLSS (sMLSS) were calculated in ten male children (11.5 ± 0.4 years) and ten adolescents (15.8 ± 0.7 years). Blood lactate concentration (BL), oxygen uptake ( V · O2), and heart rate (HR) at sMLSS were compared to intermittent (10 × 200-m) and continuous swimming corresponding to CS. Results: CS was similar to sMLSS in children (1.092 ± 0.071 vs. 1.083 ± 0.065 m·s−1; p = 0.12) and adolescents (1.315 ± 0.068 vs. 1.297 ± 0.056 m·s−1; p = 0.12). However, not all swimmers were able to complete 30 min at CS and BL was higher at the end of continuous swimming at CS compared to sMLSS (children: CS: 4.0 ± 1.8, sMLSS: 3.4 ± 1.5; adolescents: CS: 4.5 ± 2.3, sMLSS: 3.1 ± 0.8 mmol·L−1; p < 0.05). V · O2 and HR in continuous swimming at CS were not different compared to sMLSS (p > 0.05). BL, V · O2 and HR in 10 × 200-m were similar to sMLSS and no different between groups. Conclusion: Intermittent swimming at CS presents physiological responses similar to sMLSS. Metabolic responses of continuous swimming at CS may not correspond to MLSS in some children and adolescent swimmers.

The main problem of the research is the low mastery of the skills to start swimming deaf children. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the exercise model using video media on swimming grabstart skills in deaf children.Subjects were 40 deaf children consisting of 20 experimental groups and 20 control groups. Data collection was carried out by conducting initial tests to grabstart swimming skills, practice (training models using video media) and final tests of grabstart swimming skills. Data analysis and hypothesis testing using comparative analysis techniques using the Dependent sample t-test, namely Paired sample t-test and Independent sample t-test, namely t-Test: Two-Sample Assuming Equal Variances with a significant level α = 0.05Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that: 1) There is an effect of the exercise model using video media on swimming grabstart skills in deaf children from an average value of 51.05 to 64.94 with Tcount = 14.93> Ttable = 2.10, 2 ) There is an influence of the control group on swimming grabstart skills in deaf children from an average value of 47.89 to 52.69 with Tcount = 4.47> Ttable = 2.10. 3) There is a difference between the effect of the exercise model using video media with a control group with Tcount = 3.82> Ttable = 2.02.

Full textAbstract:
In the modern scientific space, various models of swimming training have been developed, which include integral-separate, sequential, sequential-parallel, accelerated, with the use of supporting and technical means of training. Within the framework of the developed models, various teaching methods and techniques are used depending on the specifics of the pedagogical task and the characteristics of the contingent of children. The purpose of the research is to identify innovative approaches to teaching swimming to children at the stage of initial training. Research methodology. The work used the methods of the theoretical level of research: analysis, comparison, induction, deduction, systematization and generalization of scientific and methodological literature, regulatory and legal documents. Scientific novelty. The following sequence of teaching children to swim at the stage of initial training has been established: familiarization with water, getting used to water, overcoming water resistance, diving headfirst into water, being able to stay afloat, being able to open eyes in water, gliding in water, performing paddling movements and learning to jump in water. Conclusions. It was determined that the main limiting factor in children's initial swimming training at the stage of initial training is the lack of time allocated in educational programs for mastering swimming skills. There is a need to find means and methods that allow to quickly form children's swimming skills, considering the level of their somatic health and functional state. This leads to the search for effective innovative methods of initial teaching of swimming technique. It is promising in this direction to use aquafitness tools in a game form for children, which on the one hand will allow to quickly form initial swimming skills, and on the other - will contribute to increasing the level of somatic health, functional state, and physical fitness of children.

Psychomotricity is a broad term that encompasses different approaches to bodily action to support children and adolescents to reach their highest motor and cognitive potential. The aim of the study was to highlight gender differences in the manifestation of psychomotor behaviors in 8–9-year-old children who practice sports swimming. The subjects (N=52, 26 males, 26 females) are children aged 8.0-9.11 years (M = 8.80; SD = ±0.65) who practice swimming in one of the swimming pools of a city in Romania. They were tested, using specific instruments, to assess the level of manual dexterity, body schema, hand laterality, body balance, body balance on water/buoyancy, general coordination. For four of the variables (manual dexterity, body schema, hand laterality and spatial orientation) no statistically significant differences were found, while for the other three (body balance, body balance on water and general coordination) statistically significant differences were recorded. The results indicate differences between the two genders, girls in this age group who practice swimming having more developed psychomotor skills compared to boys.
