Thank you all for your helpful replies (many replied twice after I sent
a 2nd target)!! Each person who responded was very positive about
Brainpop, teachers love it as do students. I did add that I was asking
about a 7-12 school and although most folks were using it for elementary
school some felt it would be ok for high school and certainly for 7-8.
I have shared your responses with the dept. (science) who were inquiring
about it. I think they are going to start with their classrooms for a
year and see how it goes, if they love it I will purchase for the
library for use by all. Thank you again, as usual, for your quick and
helpful replies.
Have a great weekend!! EC

"At the moment that we persuade a child, any child, to cross that
threshold, that magic threshold into a library, we change their lives
forever, for the better. It's an enormous force for good. "
Barack Obama, President of the United States
"I really didn't realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous
group. They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at
the desk, all quiet and everything. They're like plotting the
revolution, man. I wouldn't mess with them." Michael Moore
