[quote=Anonymous]I love my child's Open House day.  It is much more eye opening than going to the 5-10min rushed conference.

For our school, there is no principal or PTA talk.  We go directly to the classrooms to observe.  Some teachers have the parents sit around the perimeter in chairs and watch quietly.  Getting a feel for how the teachers teach and manage, child expectations, and it also gives you an idea of the classroom dynamic - the kids and any issues.

We are also welcome to have lunch/recess although most working parents come to the morning session and leave.

In the afternoon session, it is the same thing but with math or a different curriculum.  Some teachers involve the parents to help their child or walk around during busy work time.  It was sad for the kids that didn't have anyone.  To the PP that just doesn't bother, I find that really sad.  My child's face lights up when I come in each year.  Same with the other kids.  To think you are at a spa instead.  I don't know - just not cool.  [/quote]
