Grade 2 Unit 3 - Reader

“Dad was bigger than me. He still is. So he makes
a big splash. I saw that if I wanted to outsplash him,
I had to be smart. I found out there is an art to how
you land in the pool. If you bend at the moment
you hit, that helps a lot. If you hit the pool sort of
slanted, you can make a big, big splash. And, best of
all, you can target the splash. What matters the most
is how your back is facing when you hit. You can
bend it and tilt it all sorts of different ways. Once
you get the hang of it, you can make the splash
shoot off to one side and start aiming at targets, like
garden beds, or sisters. Sisters are harder to hit since
they can run and swim. Also, sometimes they splash
you back .”
