More Opportunities for Exercise

• Recess and physical education classes are being cut from the curriculum in many schools. Not only is this bad for the health of students, but it also undermines the potential for learning. Getting out and getting more exercise helps students to get needed breaks, to recharge, and to come back ready to learn. The increased blood flow and the surge of feel-good hormones helps students learn more easily. Homeschooling allows for a flexible schedule so that students and parents get he opportunity to exercise more. Students can exercise several times per day, and they can get this exercise at the time that makes the most impact on their personal biorhythms, learning styles, or even just their mood for that day.
