Great to see you two yesterday in your session on the Wii! I can’t wait to float that idea at my campus to get some for our students. May not be for PE but we would use them somehow.
Checkout the links I posted on my Tumblr from a session I attended today. Awesome stuff by Dr. Byrum for teachers to use. Can’t wait to test them all out!
Keep up the great commentary too on your site. I love reading and listening!
