How I Use It

I often use BrainPop videos as a quick review or summary of a lesson or concept in science. Our current science textbook website offers several videos related to concepts covered in our state CSOs

My Take

While I would not recommend that BrainPop ever take the place of teacher- or student-led instruction, it is certainly optimal for reviewing concepts and facts related to specific lessons and concepts being taught.
