Greetings! Again this year, I will be sharing with you a website that I have found useful and fun, or that is being used successfully by other staff members. Hopefully, by sharing resources, we can further develop our professional learning community and find new ways to integrate technology into our classrooms.
This month's website is Brainpop. Yes, we have had Brainpop for the last several years but did you know:
- As a teacher, you can access Brainpop after-hours. While students can sign onto Brainpop 7AM-5:30PM with the student user name and password, teachers can sign in after-hours using the following:
User name hooksett_teacher
Password memorial
- That teachers can create their own Brainpop quizzes, or remix and edit existing quizzes, with the new feature "The Mixer"? Just create a free Brainpop Educators profile and you are on your way. Click on this link to watch a short video about how to use this exciting new feature and to get more information.
- That Brainpop has lots of Election 2012 materials available for your students? Check out the Spotlight video on Elections, running on the main page through November 6th, or delve further into timely topics like Voting, Presidential Elections, Presidential Power, Primaries and Caucuses, Political Parties, and more.
As always, I would be glad to help you explore any of these topics.
Thanks!
