SPRING 2017 HOMESCHOOL IOWA 11
• Write problems on the sidewalk or driveway with sidewalk
chalk. Instruct him to say the answer aloud as he jumps on
each problem.
• Read a problem aloud to him. He can call out the answer as
he bounces on a mini trampoline or dribbles a ball.
• Use an exercise ball to incorporate large muscle movement.
He could bounce the ball, balance on it, or bounce gently on
the ball as he answers problems.
• Practice skip counting while jumping rope.
Regardless of how you incorporate movement, remember to
keep the sessions short (10-20 minutes for grades 1-3 and 20-30
minutes for grades 4-6).
Crystal Wagner and her husband, Jason, have
