Teachers always look forward to meeting the families of our students at Open House. The purpose of Open House at Fales is to meet the teachers and see where your child spends his or her day. As you tour the classroom, ask your child to explain things and talk about how things work in 1st grade. So much of these first few days have been spent on developing a positive classroom community, learning routines and helping children to understand first grade expectations. Remember that Open House usually falls around the 12th day of school. Many things in our classroom have yet to be introduced, but there are many things that they have learned already. Ask your child questions like…
“How do you order lunch?”
“What do you do when you come in to class in the morning?”
“What do you do at the end of the day?”
“Who sits at your table?”
“What do you do if you need a pencil?”
Specialists will also be in their rooms during Open House. Make sure to visit the library, the gym and the music/art room!
At Open House, time constraints and the lack of privacy will prevent teachers and parents from talking specifically about children are doing, however we look forward to talking to you further at conference time. In past years, Open House was also a time to sign up for Parent/teacher conferences. This year, we will be using the website "Sign Up Genius" (SUG) to schedule conferences. In a few weeks we will send out a request to sign up for conferences on SUG. We will make sure to alert you ahead of time once we know the date and time that the Sign Up email will be sent.
We have been collecting data about ourselves and our classmates that you will see when you visit our class. When you come to Open House, please sign in on our data chart so we can count, tally, order, compare…tomorrow.
We look forward to meeting you at Open House!
