My kids watch movies of books they have read all the time at school. Maybe this was a conclusion of them doing a whole unit on the Harry Potter movie. Now...I am not sure I would want my kid doing a unit on HP..only because I wouldn't want them dwelling deeper into the "witchcraft" of the movie which may be something that might be done. Plus since it is a controversial book you may have parents not wanting their kid to read it at all. But my 3rd graders class was doing a fun unit on monsters and we all met on a Sat to watch Monsters Inc. together. It wasn't a field trip though.
