Movement is so important for our bodies! This week we are going to use both movement and art. The picture book Yoga Frog by Nora Carpenter is about a tired frog who becomes energized through yoga. Let's do some yoga together and create our own yoga frog! Want to try some yoga poses? Check out this video from Cosmic Kids and learn 10 different yoga poses. Drawing Yoga Frog Materials Needed: Paper, Pencil, Crayons/Colored Pencils/Markers Think about what yoga pose you want for your frog. Turn your paper so you can fit your frog's yoga pose. Below are the drawing steps for the body, but you can decide how the arms and legs will be positioned. After you have created your yoga frog, add a fun background! Artist Connection: Edgar Degas
Edgar Degas was a French painter, sculptor, and printmaker (1834-1917). When I think about the artwork of Degas, I think about all of his ballerina paintings and sculptures. These are great examples of capturing movement within artwork!
