[NEohioPAL] Nominate Verb Ballets for Michelle Obama's 'Lets Move!'

[Kyle Znamenak]

This year's Michelle Obama's 'Lets Move!' campaign-- a comprehensive,
collaborative intuitive to combat childhood obesity-- is looking for
recommendations of individuals and organizations that are increasing access
to physical activity and play for young people. Northeast Ohio's Verb
Ballets has created an interactive DVD called Wigglewords which keeps
children active and energized with a variety of word and movement games.

Wiggleword is led by professional dances from Verb Ballets, students bend
and stretch their bodies to form the letters of the alphabet while
improving knowledge in spelling, phonics rules, identification of vowels
and consonants, rhyming, and storytelling. Wigglewords is created, written
and directed by Pamela Pribisco and is made possible, in part, by a
generous grant from the Cleveland Foundation.

Please support Verb Ballets by going to this link and nominating
Wigglewords for the 'Lets Move!' campaign:

Selected nominees and their programs will be recognized at the 'Champions
of Change' event which will highlight the benefits and importance of
physical activity.
