J is for Jumping…

J is for Jumping…

Now why on earth would I say that J is for Jumping in our homeschool? It sounds kind of silly. But it isn’t if you know that we have a trampoline and I insist that Chandler jump on it whenever the weather permits. Chandler doesn’t like to participate in a lot of sports, so physical activity is always something I have to strongly encourage him to do. The trampoline works.

I like to use the trampoline as part of our PE program. He often is told to start his PE by going and jumping on the trampoline for 10 minutes. That means non-stop jumping. When I am feeling particularly mean strict, I make him do it for 15 minutes. At other times, if I feel we need a short break, I will tell him to go out and jump for a set amount of time. It really is a great way to change things up in our day.

Honestly, I probably like the whole jumping concept more than Chandler does. But he will do it without groaning and with a teen, that is a good thing.
