We get so many requests from educators for BrainPOP t-shirts, we decided to hold a contest! Anyone who submits a lesson plan that’s selected to be published between now and January 31, 2009 wins a BrainPOP t-shirt! Submitting lesson plans is quick and easy!  Lesson plans must be original and highlight your integration of BrainPOP or BrainPOP Jr. Browse what we’ve got here & submit your own!
