## Description

BrainPOP UK is a KS2/KS3 & P3-P6/P7-S2 online subscription resource that delivers
unique and highly engaging educational animations that make complex and challenging
concepts accessible to children.

The movies are designed to encourage curiosity in kids in world around them and 
be a highly engaging, pedagogically strong starter or concept introduction resource
for the educator.

Our POPbox WordPress plugin will allow you to showcase the free featured movie of
the day in your blog sidebar.

At significant points in the movies key vocabulary is displayed. Each movie is built
in Flash, can be zoomed to fill the screen and lasts between 2.5-5 mins . a time
span that is perfect for attention grabbing. They can be rewound/fast forwarded 
with no streaming pauses (as movies always pre-load).

It changes regularly and covers Science, Humanities, Maths, English, PSHE & Citizenship,
Art and Design & Technology.

## Installation

 1. Extract .zip file into wp-contents folder.
 2. Enable plugin (plugin screen)
 3. Drag widget onto sidebar (appearance screen)
