The Magical, Zoo-Themed Learning Experience
Imagine engaging your students with 26 zoo animals that spring to life in 3D augmented reality! Classrooms alive will enhance your current curriculum by creating a magical, zoo-themed learning experience with a full suite of our early learning products. Our Zoo animals interact with your students as they learn the foundations for reading, writing, and math. This ties in an element of science as your kids go on an imaginative tour through our zoo.
Why is Classrooms alive™ so effective?
Classrooms alive™ is based on brain science and uses 9 learning modalities: auditory, music, visual, kinesthetic, tactile, verbal, social emotional, element of surprise/novelty, and cross-curricular science. This creates mind-boggling engagement; and engaged brains build more neural pathways to receive, remember, and recall information.
