We will bring loaner books.

🕉️ 9am Community Yoga
🕉️ 9am Community Yoga
04/26/2025 (3 weeks from now)
9:00 am - 10:00 am
Every Saturday at 9am If regular yoga classes are a bit out of your price range, you have trouble finding the motivation to practice alone, or you have been curious to try out yoga for the first time, Community Yoga is for you! These casual classes happen in person every Saturday morning at 9am. The class is usually a more relaxing Yin Yoga.
Classes are in-person and streamed online through glo.com, which features dozens of different teachers and yoga styles!
After class, for those who want to, there will be time to ask questions about poses, help each other out, or share tips and stretches we've been enjoying.
These classes are very casual and are open to all ages and abilities (beginners welcome). There are mats, blocks and straps available, no special clothes are required (comfy recommended) and there is a separate unattended playroom for children if needed, but kids who can focus on the class are welcome to stretch with us too!
$2/person

04/29/2025 (4 weeks from now)
4:00 pm - 7:00 pm

How are warming ocean temperatures impacting fish species in the region? How do scientists study changing predator/prey relationships throughout this complex ecosystem? Investigate these questions and more as you learn about a new NGSS-aligned middle school curriculum based on ongoing research being conducted by researchers at The University of New Hampshire and the Gulf of Maine Research Institute. Participants will experience hands-on and interactive lesson activities, engage with data-based learning and develop an ecosystem model using the digital SageModeler tool. In addition to middle school students, resources from this module are also relevant for high school science students. Check out the full curriculum module here: A Warming Gulf of Maine: Investigating Impacts on Predators and Prey
Participating educators will receive a $75 stipend, mileage reimbursement, dinner and contact hours.
Audience: Formal and informal educators working with youth
Cost: Free.
