I don't have school today, but if I did, I'd definitely be showing some Presidents Day Brain Pop Jr. movies. I'm fortunate enough to have a school account, but if you don't there are still many FREE movies you can show your students. Here's one perfect for today! It's a biography of George Washington.
I show Brain Pop Jr. movies almost daily! They cover almost every topic you'll teach and in a kid friendly way that helps the information stick. I will sometimes use them to introduce a topic and other times, I'll use them as a review before a quiz. Speaking of quizzes, you can actually print out easy or hard quizzes about the movies or do the quizzes together as a class. Brain Pop Jr. is a great way to use up 5 minutes in an educationally meaningful way.
I love Brainpop! Thanks for letting us know that this is one of their free videos.
