Open House 3/5/13

Open House is always a challenge because the parents want to see something cute and you want the kids to get excited as well.  So of course I went to Pinterest searching for ideas for a jumping off point.  I also found a blog that had the "lucky" tags but I'm sorry I printed it and didn't pin the site to give credit to the originator but it wasn't me! :)

We were studying the end of the Indian Wars and the Open Cattle Ranges in Texas so we took white butcher paper and traced around each student to decorate his/her cowboy or cowgirl.  I had so many cute and original ideas.  This is one of my favorites.  Students also added his/her autobiography to attach to the cowboy/girl but my Molly wanted hers to sit on the desk so we could see her outfit! It was definitely a hit! :)
