Frequently Asked Questions
Standards Alignments on BrainPOP
BrainPOP topics are aligned to Common Core (CCSS), US State, and Next Generation Science (NGSS) standards for grades 3-12.
You can find them on every topic under Teach This Topic.
Click Standards to view feature level standards for the topic.
The topic-related and active viewing standards are affiliated with the Movie, while the other features (like Make-a-Map, Make-a-Movie, Creative Coding, etc.) have their own skill-based topic standards. This means teachers will be able to know exactly which feature provides or scaffolds the standard they want to address.
You can also sort standards by grade level.
If you are logged in with an individual educator account, we will remember the state, grade level and standard you most recently used.
