7.b. Open House Flyer
June 23, 2011This year, I student-taught at West Anchorage High School,
my alma mater, under the direction of two mentor teachers. Each of these
teachers gave me one of their classes to teach in its entirety, from the start
of the year to the finish. My classes were English 9 and English 10, both
general education classes. For one semester, I taught two sections of Honors
English 10. In the first month of school, West High School has an Open House, in which parents are
invited to visit the school and circulate though their students’ class
schedules, with the bell ringing every ten minutes to direct parents to the
next class period. For this meeting, I had copies of my syllabus for each class,
as well as a small flyer I prepared explaining a little bit about myself, class
goals for the year, and books we might be reading. You can view the flyer below:
In my introductions, I explained my student-teacher status and what it means, explained my standards-based grading system, discussed the materials I handed out, and invited parents to contact me any time via email.
