As a parent and an elementary school teacher, I have seen many, many Disney movies in my day. Several of these creations tie in so well as reinforcers of concepts we are trying to teach. Finding Nemo, for example, contains so much enrichment when discussing ocean life, habitats and ocean zones. However, we have been warned at our school that Disney does not approve of our using their wonderful films to enrich our curriculum. Even to the point of major lawsuits that no one on an educator's budget could ever hope to fight. Does anyone else face this dilemma?
