Congratulations to BrainPOP Educators: @jenniethom, @taclark and @stonewalllap_teacher the three winners of our Food Fight creative idea T-shirt contest!  By playing BrainPOP’s newest game “FoodFight” on GameUP and sharing their creative lesson ideas in our games forum, they will be celebrating the holidays in their new T-Shirts! Take a look at the forum discussion to see why Jennie thinks playing the game made her feel, ”it’s time to revisit food chains” in her classroom. Read further and see how stonewalllap_teacher considers this game as a terrific writing prompt. @Taclark cleverly connects school community with the concepts of food chains, competition and balanced ecosystems. It’s amazing how many ways game play helps students explore academic concepts.  It’s no wonder that gaming is gaining traction in schools around the world.   If you didn’t enter our contest, but you still want to win a Moby shirt,  keep up with BrainPOP educators here on our blog and on Twitter and Facebook.  You never know when we might feature another fabulous contest!

  With school break this week, there should be a little extra time to try the newest entry in BrianPOP’s GameUP site, Food Fight!  This 2 player turn based game is not only tons of fun, but also helps players actively learn about ecosystems and habitats.  Click here to visit GameUP and play. We are super excited to announce a Food Fight contest.  The rules are simple and they don’t involve messing up the kitchen! 1) Find a partner and play Food Fight. 2) Think of a creative way to use the game within an educational setting. Follow up activities are acceptable too! 3) Post your idea to this forum. If we select your idea, we’ll promote it on the blog and send you a nifty Moby long sleeve T-Shirt!   We are only accepting entries until November 30th, so be quick, be creative, and you may have an early holiday gift, a splendid T-Shirt from BrainPOP!
