My Sunsmart Writing

 

Wearing HAT OR SUNSCREEN: 

Protecting yourself from the sun and your skin. The reason why you should protect yourself is that you can get sunburn and skin cancer by putting sunscreen on and wearing a hat. Make sure it is a brim hat and sunscreen that will keep your skin safe.

Your skin is a sensitive spot on your body which is what makes your skin smooth. Your hat protects your forehead, eyes, nose, and mouth from getting sunburnt. But some SunSmart schools spend most of their time outside depending on the time so I recommend putting on a hat & sunscreen. 

 

Swimming in summer: 

Swimming in summer is very good because after the long hot days you just jump in the pool which is cold but first there are things that you need to do before getting in the pool which are.

  1. Put on sunscreen so you will not get sunburnt from the sun
  2. Put on a hat that covers your eyes, nose and mouth 
  3. Put on clothing that will cover your whole body that is swimming clothes.

Swimming in the pool has things that are guidelines like Slip, Slop,Slap, Wrap

These things make sure you keep your skin safe and yourself from that hot sun.

Slip-On Clothing:

Slipping on clothing is what saves your body and your skin because you can get skin cancer if you do not wear or put proper clothing in the sun. Sometimes it can be very hot and the heat protects your skin. Clothing like long sleeves and long skirts, pants, and shorts is what helps you protect your skin.
