This is an Xtranormal movie created by a primary TL at SJV - this is a fantastic example of how to motivate and involve students in support the implementation of leaning technologies. This type of approach also builds teacher's confidence offering teachers support within classrooms as they introduce new tools to their students. This is also a great move towards generating enthusiasm and creating momentum within your school.
