A friend of mine forwarded me the video below of a team of 4th-8th graders who do amazing things with jumpropes. It’s worth watching all the way to the end, evidenced by the increasing amazement on the faces of the audience at the Naval Academy, who are no strangers to precision. In order for these 9-13 year-olds to perform their [...]
