5th grade teacher By Sabrina

When Open House time comes around, I usually focus on two or three projects that we worked on during the year and have a couple examples of each. For example, I do a unit where we have chicks hatch in the classroom. I also have pictures from a couple field trips that we always take and parents LOVE plays so if you have done anything like that, or the music teacher has anything with them playing music or singing, use that.
If you do not have this type of stuff ready for the upcoming open house, just talk about the main themes in each subject to get them excited. Maybe have some computer programs on for them to try out that your kids normally use. Hope this helps a bit.
