Come learn about arctic animals through physical activity! This is a very interactive class. In this one time class, we will learn what the arctic is and animals that live there. We will look at visuals of these animals and use yoga poses to transform into them. Animals include: polar bear snow goose moose snowy owl puffin walrus husky beluga reindeer harp seal lemming arctic fox arctic hare arctic wolf After learning each animal and yoga pose, we will listen to an interactive story where we will pretend to be these animals through the new pose we learned. Before classes begin, please make sure the student has a safe place to move around and be active. We will begin class sitting but students will be encourage to get up to perform the yoga moves for each animal. Remember that arctic animals yoga is designed to be a fun way to integrate movement into the day. Poses don't need to look perfect or exactly as described.
Learning Goals
Students will learn what the arctic is, the animals that live there, and yoga poses corresponding to each animal. We will use comprehension skills to listen to a story and use the yoga poses we just learned when we hear an animal in the story.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Families!
My name is Alyssa Holst. I am a former public school teacher. I earned my bachelors degree in elementary education from Indiana University. I am licensed to teach prek-6th grade. I taught kindergarten for six years and then became a stay at home mom. I have two children; a three year old girl and 7 month old boy.
I love to teach through movement and play. Through play, children can discover their own interests, abilities and limitations; they imagine, investigate and explore. They develop memory skills, build vocabulary, and learn new skills and knowledge.
My classes will involve a lot of participation from your learner! We will move, play, and have fun learning together!
