Twitter user Michael Haz reports that his neighbors have adopted a co-op approach to homeschooling with the communal PE class being taught by a retired U.S. Marine, complete with burpees and chants.
“I don’t know but I believe, Santa comes on Christmas Eve”:
I’m dyin’ here.
Neighbors are co-op schooling while schools are closed. One neighbor, ex-Marine, is in charge of PE.
He’s got elementary school kids lined up in his back yard doing burpees and air squats while chanting “I don’l know but I believe, Santa comes on Christmas Eve.”

LOL! We need more stories like this, please:
The kids are having a ball. Much laughing and yelling.
It’s like R. Leigh Ermey is doing daycare.

Um I want to join this PE class. “I BELIEVE, SIR!”

“I hate school! I hate school! Studying at home is really cool”:
Now he’s got them marching to the lot line and back chanting “I hate school! I hate school! Studying at home is really cool!”
The kids are totally into this. It’s hilarious. And a joy to watch.

Rightfully so, there will not be any video:
I wouldn’t post a video of my neighbors’ kids. They’re kids, and their privacy is important.

And it’s not just PE being taught by an expert:
Who teaches Math?
