Often time I want a different way to engage my students other than ME. Videos are an obvious \"go-to\" but finding school appropriate videos can be challenging. When I do find videos that are school appropriate, they are often too short, too long, or do not include a focus on the academic standard I am hoping for. It often turns into a rabbit hole on the internet without anything useful. Brainpop has allowed me to cut my searching time away, spending more time on engaging activities to go WITH the Brainpop videos!\r\n\r\nMy students have falled in love with the characters Tim and Moby! They look forward to seeing the silly things Moby does, and the clever themed t-shirt that Tim wears. What they don't realize is what I SEE. Their excitment has returned for the subjects I am teaching them with these animated and clever yet academic videos.\r\n\r\nThank you so very VERY much!
