Learn From Home Challenge Part 2



This is Brainzy by Education.com.  It is free and you can sign in by using your Google account or email with a password.  I found this through Education.com because I am a paid subscriber.  I use a lot of their material so I just invested in it.  Education.com will allow so many free materials. 

Brainzy is a nice collection of activities that address very typical early learning themes to higher elementary. It is a good review/practice for students to do on their own. Kids need to have good mouse skills, which may be hard for those who are beginning mouse users. Kids also get a nice package of different ways to interact with the learning material, which makes the site easy to use.  While the free version does not offer extra material, kids can still get simple, but fun, practice with common early learning topics.

It would be nice if the teachers could suggest particular topics for kids to explore -- this could be especially useful in a classroom setting.

  1. I really like Brainzy, and I like that it is appropriate for preK!! I liked that it is set up in a game board fashion, that will be easy to assign as part of an assignment. I did the patterns in the Math section and I think my kiddos would like exploring that, I may use this as a resource for next week.

  2. Brainzy does provide a lot of choices for kids to explore and there is motivation to complete tasks and earn coins to purchase items in the store. Basic skills are reinforced by the many opportunities to practice. Early learners will like this site and can maintain and grow skills.
