Title: Lesson Plans: Arabic Yoga
Body:
From http://www.arabicalmasdar.org
This lesson plan serves as a guide for a 45-minute Arabic yoga class and is meant to be used by an Arabic teacher with students ranging in age from 4 to 7 years old. However, using thematic yoga lessons to teach Arabic can easily be adapted for any classroom of any age group or language ability. This lesson plan includes an introduction activity, yoga sequence, moment of relaxation, and a closing activity.
The lesson was initially used in an Arabic immersion school where all students were learning content in Arabic. But these activities can be used in isolation or as a whole for any type of classroom of varying Arabic levels.
The lesson plan is available in English and in Arabic at http://www.arabicalmasdar.org/collection/arabic-yoga/
