Not your mama's gym class - CNN.com - 2 views

    This was my favorite site for taking a minute to have a little fun after a particularly intense lesson. The videos are short, cute, and educational and there are resources for teachers.

    Thanks for this - my own children have used this and love it. I keep meaning to add it to my list of things to explore. I like how the English section has different areas for grammar, writing etc.

    I like the site, I started exploring it and noticed that I can easily spend much time on it without realizing it.

    There is also BrainPop Jr. (http://www.brainpopjr.com/) for the younger levels. I love the site as a review or introduction for any concepts that we are teaching.

    My kids love BrainPop! I think there may have even been a Wii version of this game. :)

    Very cool, I didn't know Social Studies was on Brain Pop. I'm excited to use it in the classroom.
