New Grumo: BeanBright

Explainer video produced by Grumo Media.

The research is clear, getting parents involved in their child’s education outside of school dramatically improves that child’s performance in school.

But parent-teacher communication can be pretty old-fashioned, and rarely includes simple ways that parents can further their child’s education at home.

That’s why we’re introducing Beanbright! A service that provides your classroom with a free website that your students’ families can access right from their mobile devices.

On the site, they’ll find a selection of learning tracks aligned to state and national standards with activities that give parents a framework for learning with their kids.

As activities are completed, students earn cool badges helping to motivate them and the entire family!

We’ll also include our sticker books so that when a student earns a badge in Beanbright, they’ll get a sticker to go with it.

We’ll provide content that you can use as-is or customize to fit your curriculum. And Beanbright sends parents a weekly email with a learning tip they can use right away, plus any custom announcements from your class.

Beanbright was created by Google’s first head of K-12 education and a former Washington, DC teacher of the year.

And our mission is to help engage your students’ families all year long, encouraging learning at home and ensuring your students’ success.

So visit Beanbright.org, and we’ll set up a free customized Beanbright site for your classroom.
