Now, not so much, but when we first started homeschooling he was a young 10 year old. So I had a hat in which I put peices of paper in of various exercises the kids could do it they didn’t want to move directly on to their next class. Inside the hat was either jumping jacks (a certain number), sit ups, run in place, squats, etc. The rule was, finish 2 subjects and if you needed to release energy, pick something from the hat. If you got through 3 subjects you could have a snack break (timed and snack was already prepared). This really worked our first year. Now with an 11 yr old boy who’s much more active in daily sports (yeah, I take him to a sport 5 days a week – breakdancing, tennis, martial arts and gymnastics), he is much more calmer and needs less breaks.
