Glencliff Open House

Last night Glencliff Humanities Summer Academy had its first Open House for parents and families.  Each class was charged with creating stations that best showed off the work of their kids and helped get parents involved in the curriculum. As I was walking through the CM classrooms, I saw the most gorgeous uses of space and professional displays of student work. I wanted to take a minute to shout out one classroom in particular and show you guys the student driven and welcoming space that they created.


This was their student work wall. It was downright beautiful. I'm totally stealing it. 




At this station, they engaged the parents and students who came by bringing awareness to a social issue that exists right here in Nashville--Homelessness. They had excerpts of articles from the Contributer, the homeless newspaper, and had their visitors write ideas for things that we can do to make change and help the homeless. 


 They even had a slide show of pictures of them with their kids. :)


They also made the coolest brochures and displayed all of their curriculum! So, shoutout to Room 203 for putting a TON of effort into making your classroom a room that you, your kids, and the entire Glencliff team could be proud of.
