A New Resource for our Learners and Teachers!

We are very excited at Magee to bring a new resource to our learners!  We have recently subscribed to the award-winning web-delivered resource, Brain Pop!

BrainPOP creates animated, curriculum-based content that supports educators and engages students. Hundreds of topics within Science, Social Studies, English, Math, Technology, Arts & Music and Health are all brought to life through short, animated movies and related interactive quizzes and features.


BrainPOP Jr. provides educational movies for K-3 learners and addresses a wide range of grade-
appropriate topics. Each animated topic has a movie, leveled quizzes, games, activities, and lesson ideas that develop critical thinking and inquiry skills. All content is read aloud so young students can browse the site on their own.

BrainPOP Español provides BrainPOP content in Spanish. All content is aligned to and searchable by state and Common Core standards.

Because BrainPOP and BrainPOP Jr. are delivered entirely online, there’s nothing to install or download. You can use BrainPOP resources with PCs and Macs.  You’ll also be able to access all movies and quizzes on your mobile device, via the BrainPOP Featured Movie apps. They’re available for all major platforms.

Your child’s subscription to BrainPOP will remain active for the next 12 months and is accessible in school and at home, through the Magee Library Media Site.  They will have full access to all the movies, quizzes, and interactive resources. Questions?  Please email Kim Jones, Library Media Specialist.
