Getting the Most Out of BrainPOP - Continuation

Last week, we posted about getting the most out of BrainPOP, an incredible PK-8 digital resource. Our first post will assist you with accessing BrainPOP and entering your students into a class. See post here. 

This week we will discover how to ASSIGN BrainPOP Resources to your students for learning activities and formative assessment.

1️⃣. Go to your BrainPOP Teacher Dashboard and choose + New Assignment.

2️⃣. Choose the BrainPOP resource you are using in your classroom and search by topic. Upon choosing your topic for learning, you will see a variety of resources that you are able to assign to your class. (Note: Resources will vary by topic.) Choose what you will assign and navigate through the wizard to add instructions, due dates and scheduled dates for your assignment.

3️⃣. Students access their assignments by navigating to their BrainPOP Dashboard, locating their current assignments and completing them.

4️⃣. To see your students' progress, teachers return to the Teacher Dashboard and view the status of completion or grade for each assignment. 

BrainPOP has an entire website, BrainPOP for Educators with a robust section to assist Teachers with Lesson Planning, including connection to Academic Standards, Lesson Ideas and Project Examples.
