What educators are saying
Bring in PIXAR and students are engaged. It makes learning fun for students! Students recall information and concepts much easier than traditional ways.
I did this with 3rd graders instead of the reading curriculum's lessons on theme. My students LOVED watching the videos and it was so easy to go through theme. I did have to alter the lessons since they are younger but it worked well!

WHY TEACH WITH SHORT FILMS? Allowing students to learn about literary elements using short films alleviates some learning blocks that struggling readers and students with attention disorders experience. Separating knowledge of literature from reading comprehension helps students learn more effectively and enjoyably, which will ultimately improve reading skills. Students of all levels benefit from learning in manageable chunks.
