When I was in 6th grade, my best friend Ms. Eleanor and I began different hobbies. I began horseback riding more often and she began to ice skate a lot. I still do love to ride horses when I have the chance, but I always found ice skating to be fun. Ms. Eleanor was a very good teacher, even as a kid. She enjoyed showing me everything she was learning. She even had ice skating birthday parties where I could practice! I have always thought that it would be neat to take ice skating lessons like Ms. Eleanor.
Many people do not think about ice skating during the summertime, but I think it is the perfect time to go! On hot days I like to cool off, and stepping onto the ice certainly helps me to do that! I decided to begin ice skating lessons last week. Ice skating is great exercise for my leg muscles. I am going to keep practicing so that I can get better. Wish me luck!
If you are looking for a good way to cool off on a hot day, I think you should try ice skating! Let me know if you do!
Here are some books about ice skating. There are even more than these at the library in Bridgewater!
