Thanks!

There are so many! At least part of it has to do with how much trouble you are having with your back. Is is just weak, or is there pain? If there is pain, you can learn how to adjust your back yourself with a great ebook I just bought, link below. Otherwise, I would do cat/cow, and the tail wag (a side bend from hands and knees). Also from hands and knees you can lift one leg out behind you and hold for a little while. Great for strength. If not in so much pain, triangle can be good for it. And of course boat pose and dead bug to strengthen the abs.

The whole answer to your question could be a long course on yoga for back care. Really the best thing to do is to go to a class where the instructor goes around and adjusts poses. Someone with some experience who can help you with poses for your back
