For parents and teachers strapped
for time and often overwhelmed by the amount of information on the Web,
this site is a delight. Class Brain leads them to the resources and information
they need. There is even a special section on Movies in the Classroom that
supplies lesson plans and materials to help teachers involve students in
writing, history, and other subjects using popular films.
Great tools and information on classroom
subjects are suddenly at students' fingertips with the help of Class Brain.
Students find resources such as maps, puzzles, and activity sheets that
they can print out and use. There are also biographies, interactive tools,
state and country report materials, and yes even learning games.
ClassBrain is the place to start as you prepare for students to return
to classes.
