The Ballet Font Project.... SOOOO Cool

http://www.balletfont.com/#/Home

While looking for inspiration, a team at WK12 (an experimental agency based within the Wieden + Kennedy advertising firm) came across a story about a young girl who needed to move in order to learn

“… In first grade, Paula Jones was assessed as 'learning disabled.' By sixth grade she was still at the first grade reading level when one empathetic teacher recognized her poise and graceful movements. This teacher encouraged Paula to go home and spell out the alphabet using her arms and legs as though she were a ballerina. Paula came in the very next morning dancing the letters and then sequencing all 26 into a unified performance. Within a week she moved from dancing words to writing them. By the end of 6th grade she was reading and writing at grade level. And the following year a 'learning disabled' Paula earned above-average grades. "

Last show of the year..:(

The show's title was shipwrecked.
The kids do most of the choreographing for the dances.
The first dance she was a "high society" Lady
we fond the dress at a thrift store and added the feathers to the bottom.
The next dance she was in was "lost souls"
 after the shipwreck
the 3rd dance she was in was "spiders" on the island that the survivors land on.
She always wanted to dance in a TUTU and have RED point shoes... and here she got both. I started to tear up watching her dance this one. knowing how long she has wanted this. It is soooo cool to see things your kids dream about come true.!!
She is the one 2nd from the right.

On one leg and turning on point..

Bow
Carlie and I

The Card I made for her and put in her dance bag.  Front Say's "Dream Big"
and inside " And Dance"
then I wrote " Dance to the music of your dreams, the steps will bring you joy"
I am SOOO proud of her!!!!
