BrainyFlickersVideos

Now you can also look at Class 5-302A's funny videos made for a contest titled "BrainyFlix". We were supposed to define SAT words and make a humorous video about the word. Vanessa & Latanya made a video for the word "Intrepid" and it rocked! Watch them now! Maria and Siva have a video for "Pugnacious" which is an editor's top pick. Want to know what "rancid" and "abduct" mean? We have videos for that. Raheel and Shalom made a video so we'll understand what "juvenile" means. Michaela is unique -- and so is her video and "embellish" your life with Gagandeep's definition (and video design). Don't know what "canvas" means? Anton and Aaron will show you. We all use an "alias" online but Isha has perfected with her video definition. This collection contains 1,785 URLs.
