My empathy explanation
Intro:
Imagine the world without empathy. It would be a terrible and a horrible place to live in. People would always fight and horrifying wars across the country.
How you can show empathy:
Be nice to other people
Show respect to visitors
Be kind to people when they are sad
Don’t fight
Don’t be rude
Put yourselves in somebody else’s shoes
Be kind to the homeless people
Show manners
Be kind to visitors
Why it is important to show empathy:
There would be no fights and arguments.
There would be people being nice.
People being respectful to visitors.
Empathy is showing respect for other people. For example if there was a homeless person on the street would you help them would you give food and fresh water and money to them. If people just ignore them then that means they are being rude and disrespectful with no hearts it is always nice to give something to them to make their day.
Another way to show empathy is to be kind to people when they are sad. For example when a child is crying and if they are lost or something. You should help them find their mom and dad or who ever's looking for them so they feel less scared.
Cheering for people is another thing. If someone is in a race and they know that they are coming last, and they feel bad about themselves . you should cheer for them and tell the people near you to do the same so the person that’s in the race wouldn't feel so bad about themselves .
Empathy is a heart touching way for people to stop fights and arguments. People stopped being rude to visitors since empathy came out.

Diver balance
Diving
Jumping
Falling
Platform
Springboard
Acrobatics
Internationally
For a diver to be balanced they need to know what position they are going to be in. Especially their feet it has to be on the edge of the diving-board, when they are going to dive they have to be in a angle position that is pointing straight down.
Thats when they have to really concentrate and have a sharp focus. Then they jumped off the diving board when they are almost in between the pool and diving board thats when they put the arms together like a seal and get back up in the water without touching the bottom.
They do a lot of tricks when they are in the water but the difficult part about it is that they are not allowed to touch the bottom of the pool or else they will be disqualified in a competition. A diver should enter the water straight without any angle, their feet balanced against the diving board, and they focused and concentrated very well.
All of their movements were cool before entering the water as they landed in the water with a minimal splash, controlling their bodies while they jumped of the diving board also they were all balancing of the edge of the diving board.

Cold day walking to school
On a freezing frosty morning I was walking to school. I was so cold that most of my body was numb. My stomach was rumbling because I didn’t have time for breakfast.
My whole body was shaking. “ It is so cold” I thought to myself I could barely stand. “It is so foggy I could barely see a thing” I said to myself.
My hands were icy cold and my teeth were chattering. My hair was flapping everywhere and also my clothes. “I’m so late for school” I said to myself.
It was so windy that the wind was just about to push me over. The grass and the concrete was getting really icy and slippery.
It was so slippery and icy that I was slipping everywhere. I saw everyone in their cars dropping their kids off to school.
Just up the road I saw my school I was walking fast to school. “I’m finally at school” I said to myself.
