Teaching Strategies for Beginning High School Students Afraid in Water
Stillwell, Belinda; Khatchaturian, Rubina
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v91 n4 p30-39 2020
The intent of this article is to discuss how gradual water exposure, also known as systematic desensitization, coupled with the concept of mindfulness can serve as teaching strategies when working with students in the pool. These strategies have the potential to strengthen the mind/body connection for all students but particularly those who are afraid.
