Body position and movement

Exceeding Expectations

Body is nearly horizontal in water. Streamline while maintaining body roll.
Meeting Expectations

30 degrees horizontal from surface. There is some coordination in the movement but not much.
Approaching Expectations

15 degrees from surface. Coordination is apparent but the glide phase is too short thus making the stroke look rushed.
Below Expectations

Body position starts off horizontally but quickly turns to a vertical position once they begin. There is very little forward motion. There is a lot of underwater swimming with a lack of coordination.
Arms

Exceeding Expectations

Arms extended fully in coordination and sequence. Pull finishes at the shoulders. Pull provides lots of movement.
Meeting Expectations

Arms nearly to full extension during the glide phase. Arms either stop before the shoulders or just past the shoulders this disrupting the power phase.
Approaching Expectations

Hands are syncronized but the pull is either too high or too low. Minimal power in the pulling phase.
Below Expectations

Fingers are spread apart and hands are out of sync. Ineffective power in the pulling phase, arms pull to the hips. The hands will sometimes be visible above the water or far below the surface line.
Kick

Exceeding Expectations

The kick is perfectly in sync. Knees remain underneath the swimmer and extend symmetrically. The kick provides excellent forward propulsion. There is no evidence of a scissor kick.
Meeting Expectations

The occasional foot comes out of the water. Propulsion is good but not great. One leg may be chasing the other thus looking like a scissor kick. The kick provides sufficient gliding.
Approaching Expectations

Noticable foot splashing and inconsistent kick. One leg is kicking later than the other. Knees are sometimes pointing too far out to the sides. Propulsion and gliding is minimal.
Below Expectations

Feet are coming out of the water and are not symmetrical when kicking. The kick sometimes looks like a scissor kick. Minimal propulsion during the kick and glide phase.
Breathing and Timing

Exceeding Expectations

The pull-breathe-kick-glide phases are all noticeable. The glide phase is the longest phase and held for at least 1 second. Noticeable exhalation in the water and inhalation out of the water.
Meeting Expectations

One or more phases are out of sync. The glide may be rushed. Student may not be exhaling in the water.
Approaching Expectations

Two or more of the phases are out of sync. The stroke looks rushed and tiring. There is too much bobbing vertically in the water even though the student is moving forward. The glide phase is short.
Below Expectations

The stroke is completely out of sync. The pull-breathe-kick and glide phases are out of order. There is a lot of vertical movement. Breathing is erratic. There is a lot of splashing or underwater swimming.
