The research included four chapters. The first chapter included the research problem. The development in the educational field, the development of modern educational strategies and methods, the small number of educational units, the lack of time for swimming lessons, the difficulty of this sport as it is practiced in a different environment, and the lack of use of modern strategies in this game has shown the current problem. Therefore, the researcher resorted to using an educational strategy and a modern educational method in order to facilitate the educational process in an easier way. Therefore, the researcher decided to apply this strategy and this educational method, which had not been previously investigated in their impact on acquiring the skillful performance of free swimming for learners of ages (10-12) years. As for the objectives of the research, it included two objectives: identifying the impact of the educational modeling strategy using the direct teaching method in acquiring the skillful performance of free swimming, and the second objective was identifying the effect of the direct teaching method in acquiring the skillful performance of free swimming for ages (10-12) years. As for the hypothesis of the research, it included the presence of statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in the post tests, in favor of the experimental group. The second chapter included identifying the research community and its sample, where the research community was deliberately chosen, represented by the students of the specialized school, who numbered (25) students, and they were chosen by the intentional method. (16) students were chosen by drawing lots, representing the experimental group and the control group, and the number of students in the group reached The experimental group (8) students and the control group (8) students and (5) students represented the exploratory group. The research sample represented (64%) of the original population. As for the third chapter, it included presentation, analysis and discussion of the results reached by the researcher through the results obtained by the researcher as shown in the tables that show the results, while the fourth chapter included the conclusions and recommendations reached by the researcher through the results he obtained. Significant difference between the post test between the experimental and control groups. The second conclusion is the superiority of the experimental group learned with the educational modeling strategy in the direct learning method in acquiring the skillful performance of free swimming for ages (10-12) years. As for the recommendations, it is the need to use the educational modeling strategy in the direct learning method. Other sports and events.
