Site of the Week: Brain Pop


 Brain Pop is a wonderfully useful educational website for elementary and middle school teachers.  Two animated  characters, Tim and Moby teach the lessons through short scenarios.  Additionally the site has tutorials and webinars to allow teachers to become more familiar with the  site. This site can be integrated in lessons quite easily.  The website contains numerous printables and many other resources for teachers.The site catches students' attention through the creative use of animation. Despite cover such seemingly boring topics as as parts of speech, grammar,  and research methods, the students remain engaged thanks to the animated videos.  This is a must use for any elementary or middle school educator.
