Built-in science writing

Engaging phenomena

Enhance lessons with the ability to assign individual resources

Real-world data

Quick, high-impact activities

Launch accessible and relevant engineering projects

Hands-on prototyping

Content and practice

How will BrainPOP Science fit your needs?

Investigations

Activate students' scientific learning with an embedded CER process that's anchored in relatable phenomena and proven to accelerate writing and reasoning skills.

Students start with the phenomenon and use scientific practices to record observations from a variety of resources—observations that they later use as evidence to form a scientific explanation and answer a Guiding Question.

1. Activate 2. Observe and check 3. Explain using the Claim-Evidence-Reasoning model

Investigations and Engineering Projects

BrainPOP Science disciplines

Our collection of 110+ investigations across three disciplines—Life Science, Physical Science, and Earth and Space Science—supports students as they explore phenomena, ask questions, gather observations, deepen comprehension, and back up their claims with evidence: just like real scientists.
