Connect with the BrainPOP Team
Want to talk through your goals, classroom needs, or BrainPOP questions? Our RSM and CSM teams are ready to support you. Whether you’re exploring BrainPOP for the first time or looking to get more from your current experience, book a 1:1 meeting during ISTE or stop by the booth anytime.
Didn't make it to ISTE? You can still be part of it.
BrainPOP movies often start with a letter—from real students, asking their biggest questions. At the ISTE booth, teachers dropped their class's letters in our mailbox, and the best ones just might become the next movie that turns a tough-to-explain topic into something kids never forget.
Didn't make it to Orlando? Send your class's burning questions to dearbrainpop@brainpop.com and join in from wherever you are.
Resources from ISTE
Dear BrainPOP
Consider this your BrainPOP bucket list—the best movies for answering the tough questions.
Go over it with your students, then hang it up, to remind them what they can do with AI, what they can’t do, and when they should ask.
Send it home with your students to help everyone agree on how to stay safe, smart, and human in the age of AI.
BrainPOP’s been around for 27 years—learn how it’s always been the go-to resource for unpacking each era’s biggest complexities.
Why do most BrainPOP movies start with a letter from a student that asks a question? Get the answer to that question here.
Hear from BrainPOP’s editorial team on what it takes to research each BrainPOP movie—then turn it into a five-minute story.
When school’s back, ask your students their most burning questions and send them to dearbrainpop@brainpop.com.
Animation Station
Take a page from the BrainPOP animators’ book and have your students draw their own Moby—that blinks!
If you missed it at the booth (or you just want to take it again!), answer 7 questions to find out which BrainPOP character you are!
Moby and his antics are the fun part—but the pacing, the visual storytelling, and humor in every BrainPOP movie are all doing pedagogical work.
Hear from BrainPOP’s animation team on what goes into animated each BrainPOP movie—from the research and storyboarding to debating the exact length of every pause.
In the Classroom
Collect three baseball cards—each from a real teacher, each showcasing a real way they use BrainPOP.
A quick intro to the three most common ways teachers structure BrainPOP lessons—and the activities that make each one work.
Make sure to sign up for this can’t-miss event for more classroom-ready strategies from fellow BrainPOP educators.
Hear directly from teachers and district leaders on why they reach for BrainPOP again and again—and what it makes possible in their classrooms.
