Every year, I have a new theme for our Open House. The Principal likes me to showcase my room to the Grade 6 students and parents (after all, I do have the best looking classroom in the school!). I always ask my students if they are willing to volunteer that evening to be presenters or actors, depending on the theme. I also ask students if they would be crew to help set up and put away at the end of the evening. Also, I have students who create posters and artwork for the evening as well- usually the artwork is done during class time or lunch. Students who volunteer as actors, crew, and artists receive bonus marks as part of their Term I mark.
