Community reviews for BrainPOP Jr.

Words can not describe how much I love BrainPop Jr! The cartoons are very engaging to the students. They get so excited when they see BrainPop show up! I love how it the movies explains everything they need to know without going over their head. It speaks to them in their age and language. I could go on and on about this resource because it is just so awesome.

I love Brain Pop! It is a great way to introduce a lesson. The characters really get the students engaged and invested in the lesson. I also like how Brain Pop often addresses misconceptions. I have often hear my kids saying, "Oh yeah! That's what Annie said in Brain Pop!" Brain Pop also offers writing activities, drawing, lesson plans, and short quizzes to go with each lesson. The only thing I would ask more of would be to add more literacy based topics.

the kids love tim and moby which means I LOVE THEM.... the kids know more is following T&M and are ready to learn a little going into the activity

This is a great website. That provides a lot of engaging videos. My students love when I start a lesson using these videos. It activates their prior notice and helps me to know if they will be able to make connections with the upcoming lesson.

BrainPop explains complex concepts in kid friendly language and maintains student engagement while doing so. Moby and Annie ask questions, answer questions, and provide support for students to learn. The videos are short and a great introduction to topics such as government, grammar, and reading strategies and skills. I would recommend it to any teacher looking to use technology in their classroom.

Great app for giving students information about lots of different topics over time.

I like the brain pop videos. They are a great way to address curriculuar content, are engaging for students and can be the launching pad to further activities and class discussions. The only drawback is the cost.

BrainPOP Jr. takes material that could be really boring for me to talk about and makes it engaging for students with cartoons that seem well thought out and purposeful. I am able to find videos that align well with our curriculum and standards.

With Brain Pop, students are very excited about learning. The instructional videos are colorful and worded in such a way that the children are better able to comprehend.

This is a great resource to reinforce facts or begin a new lesson. Moby is engaging and funny and kids pay attention. Brainpop provides lesson plans, quizzes and other activities to go with all of their videos.
