Good news! We’ve got BrainPOP!

Our school has taken a big step forward in our efforts to help you incorporate technology into your classroom: we’ve purchased a subscription to BrainPOP. This resource will be available to our school’s staff and students for the next 12 months.

BrainPOP creates animated, curriculum-based content that supports educators and engages students. It brings hundreds of topics within Science, Social Studies, English, Math, Technology, Arts & Music and Health to life through short, animated movies and related interactive quizzes, games, and other features. All content is carefully mapped to the Common Core, aligned to state standards, and searchable with an online Standards tool.

Your BrainPOP subscription includes access to a suite of features called “My BrainPOP.” My BrainPOP lets you keep track of student learning; incorporate gaming into instruction; design BrainPOP-style assessments; and more. Students can submit quiz scores, activity pages, game snapshots, and concept maps to you for feedback. You can learn more about My BrainPOP here.

You’ll also be able to access all movies and quizzes on your mobile device, via the BrainPOP Featured Movie apps. They’re available for all major platforms.

K-3 teachers, BrainPOP Jr. provides educational movies and addresses a wide range of grade-appropriate topics. Each animated topic includes a movie, leveled quizzes, games, activities, and lesson ideas that cultivate critical thinking and inquiry skills. All content is read aloud so young students can navigate the site on their own. The BrainPOP Jr. Movie of the Week apps - available for all major platforms - will let you access all movies and quizzes right from your mobile device.

Additionally, BrainPOP Español provides BrainPOPcontent in Spanish.

BrainPOP resources are delivered entirely online, so all you need to use them is internet access. They’ll work with PCs, Macs, projectors, and interactive whiteboards. To get you up and running, BrainPOP offers a New Subscribers section as well as BrainPOP Educators, a hub for professional development, best practices, tips, and tools for the classroom. You’ll find an array of lesson plans, videos and screencasts, printables, professional development, and more there.
