Second Six Weeks

We use brain excercises everyday for the first 5 minutes of our time together. This is to get both sides of the brain working together before attacking new skills. Some of these excercises include different ways to hopscotch. You may be surprised at how difficult it is to do. Holden has been practicing for six weeks. He is going to demonstrate for you in the videos below. Here are some ideas in order of difficulty:
