revisit...Shmoop
Take another look. Here are the high points.
PSAT, SAT and AP Test Prep--and much more.
Shmoop has been available to us for SAT and AP test prep for a few years. As the subscription side of the site has grown, the free content side has as well. You will find study guides from Shakespeare to drivers ed. Also added are writing labs, career information, preparing for higher ed and military. This short video summarizes all they offer.
Access or Create Accounts
As much as I like Shmoop, their login process was difficult. That has finally improved with a branded, one page portal for new and returning users. Students can create an account with the Magic Word COLLIGATIVE to connect to MC. The teacher Magic Word is COLLISION. All caps.
Video Content
Shmoop has a library of short videos for math, lit, English, social studies, and science. Most are funny (ok, corny), engaging, and full of pop culture references. They are great for introductions, instruction, and quick reviews.
Study Guides
Despite the silly name, Shmoop is written by teachers and professors. The site has study guides for classic and contemporary books. Look for infographics to add visual elements to a unit. In the economics section, look for guides about banking. Much more to explore.
AP, PSAT, and SAT Prep
With our subscription, students have access to PSAT, SAT, and AP test prep, complete with learning modules, practice drills and three full-length tests for each. You can use the tests and drills for content. After making an account and logging in, the test prep access is under "Passes". If you want your students to follow along with your AP class, you can set up a Shmoop classroom (also found in this drop down) and follow their progress. It's also a perfect review for students who complete a class in advance of the test. Do you have an AP enrichment? I can help get your students set up with accounts.
