Adding Activity to Your School Day

OK, so this isn't earth shattering or life-changing but it is a competitive way to get your kiddos moving during your school day. Little ones need some breaks throughout the day so they can refocus. Watch this video and then try this idea (or use it as a brainstorming spring board) to get your children up and moving. You'll find that they will come back to their work with new energy and focus and who knows, you all might have a little more fun in your day, too;)

(P.S. The reading book I briefly show in this video is "How to Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons. I have used this program with great success with all 8 of my children so I highly recommend it. You can probably check it out from the library, as I have in the past but you can also buy it here.)

RightStart Math Balance

This amazing tool from RightStart Math makes balancing equations come to life! Watch the video to see how to use it for addition equations and use then use this link to get your math balance if you think you'll find it useful.

I'll try to post a couple more videos soon showing how to use the math balance for multiplication and more but for now, watch how easy it is to use for addition:
