You did great! And yes, a trampoline bout between subjects is awesome. And during some subjects. I too designed each homeschooled child’s curriculum to him. Some went deep, some did the minimum. And it is hard to “be the teacher.” Lots and lots of just reading aloud helps get it all started.
My son liked practicing his spelling while jumping on the trampoline. To this day he is a great speller, lol!
Funny story: One of my cousins was visiting an aunt, and was talking to two of her brother’s children.The aunt in question came into view, and his cousins told him, “She’s our teacher.”
The first cousin replied, “She can’t be your teacher, she’s my aunt!"
