Today at school a lady came for P6/7 to teach us about heart start. When we all walked in to the hall we were all confused when we saw all the dummies. Once we had got all the mats out on the floor, the lady got Mr Shakespeare to be a demonstration. After that she put a video on about what to do if someone is unconscious but are still breathing. After the video we got a partner to practise the recovery position on, Millie was my partner. We also watched a video on if someone unconscious ,or bleeding, having a heart attack or choking. For the choking one we all got a dummy each. Once we got the dummies we all named them me and Millie called ours Jeffrey and we had to press them with the heel of our hands and do abdominal thrusts. Then the lady told us that we had to do mouth to mouth and you should of seen everyone’s faces ! The first person to do it was Ellen .Then Millie’s mouth was too small. I finally I got Millie to do it. Once we got up stairs we got a certificate. I am glad I know how to help someone in an emergency!
