### sense in the lessons

In everyday play and safety, trampoline rules: one person at a time, use a safety net and padded springs, take off shoes, no somersaults without training, and an adult nearby. Many injuries happen when two people jump together. In science, a trampoline shows energy changing: stretched springs store energy and push you up again (elastic energy). Phrases: bounce on the trampoline, trampoline park, safety net.
