Why I’m Making My Own School First off, my job is easy. It’s not hard. I make videos from my yard. Raising my 2 toddlers hands-on is way more work. I got LUCKY. And I’d rather dedicate the rest of my life to helping the next generation, than stress about “how much more?” I could personally “achieve.” So my wife and I bought land and are building a small schoolhouse. I was crazy enough to be “Kneesovertoesguy” in a world of “no knees over toes.” So yes I’m fully aware how crazy this next chapter is. But I think the following is pretty crazy… We have companies making billions addicting us to excess calories while other companies make billions addicting us to less movement, and a third set of companies makes billions addicting us to drugs because of those first two problems!!! My strategy: 1. A set of physical fitness standards worked on at least once a week, with the educators able personally to demonstrate them 2. A variety of fun physical games DAILY 3. A minimum 1:1 ratio of time OUTSIDE the classroom vs inside And 4. The lunch period being a lunch class where the kids learn about nutrition and HELP make the food each day Anything I find helpful, I’m keeping organized and ALWAYS FREE at http://commonsenseu.org What would you add?
