BrainPOP and Active Expressions! 
I'm a BrainPOP Educator Badge
BrainPOP and ActivExpressions was a success! Students were engaged and interactive in their quiz. The success of other students was motivation and inspiration to other students to be more successful. I was excited. As a passionate teacher who prides herself on creating the most engaging and interactive classroom environment, BrainPOP and ActivExpressions provided me with both. Students were motivated and inspired to learn and be successful! Learning should not be restricted to just paper and pencil, but redefined to engage students through tools that motivates and inspires them to learn.
