Three pages after the cover. Pages 1 and 2 hold 16 cards with short directions, including Tree Pose, Cat Pose, Cow Pose, Butterfly Pose, Downward Dog, Child's Pose, Cobra Pose, Frog Pose and Rainbow Pose. Each card is shown twice for cutting. Page 3, My Yoga Story, has six boxes to glue or draw poses in order.
Can I use the Yoga Pose Cards for Kids at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for Preschool to 2nd Grade mindfulness, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many Preschool to 2nd Grade yoga resources are there?
⌄
1 printable resource, free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are yoga resources for?
⌄
These are written for Preschool to 2nd Grade students, roughly ages 4-8. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these yoga resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool to 2nd Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
