Body Poetry: Animal Action Cards

Use your imagination to incorporate the motion of animals into safe, fun and healthy exercises. Take out these colorful cards on a rainy day or anytime you or a child needs to get moving! Lurch like a bear or hop like a frog, waddle like a penguin or prance like a deer. Bring the world outside into your home or classroom and take advantage of this opportunity to teach your students about their animal neighbors while learning new ways to enjoy being active. There are 16 cards that are separated into 3 categories: easy, intermediate and challenging. Each one has 3 related walking patterns on the reverse side. The included guide details facts about each animal, as well as exercise routines and ideas for integrating the exercises into the curriculum. Card dimensions: 8 x 11 in.
