Custom Classroom Brochure for Open House {Giveaway}

Are you getting ready for Open House or Meet the Teacher?  Are you at least thinking about getting ready, like me?!! Meet the Teacher is one of those things that is a whirlwind of informations, meeting your parents and kids, and so much fun….but let's be honest, it can be super stressful, too!  SO much information to try and remember to tell them in such a short amount of time!
One of the things I've done for many years is to provide parents a brochure that introduces me, outlines my grading and homework procedures, supply list, snack and lunch details, etc.  It is a lifesaver, I can just give them one of these brochures and even if I forget to mention something that night, it is still in there for them to review later!!  
******
About 3 years ago I started selling custom brochures on TpT and it's been a great adventure to see so many different styles and information for teachers across the country!
You can check out my Custom Classroom Brochures on TpT {Here

I've used my printer at home to print them over the years, but this year I used Best Value Copy and they turned out perfectly…for a great price (they usually have coupons for color copies)!
This is what my student desks looked like last year at Meet the Teacher:
Here are some examples of brochures I've done in the past:
(I deliberately left it small to protect the information of the customers)
a Rafflecopter giveaway
Would you like to win your own?
Hope you love them as much as I do!  Happy Sunday Y'all!
