    Although I have not used Brain Pop in my classroom yet, it looks like it will be another great resource for interactive whole group and individual instruction in many content areas.

    I use Brain Pop a lot when we are doing language arts. It's a great resource to use to help reinforce the skill that is being taught. I also used it recently when teaching the order of operations in math. It's something the kids definitely enjoy.
