yes, that sounds a bit odd. If your grandson is quite young, then he might have gotten the conversation a little mixed up or exagerated. I would definitely approach the teacher first about the situation & ask what the conversation was about. But, children should not be going to the teacher's house unless there are other adults there. Like parents or grandparents. I'm in college studying to be a teacher & I can't imagine asking a student to come over for a snack. Defintely worth looking into. Good luck!

You shouldn't be worried for one reason - because you shouldn't let him go at all, and if he doesn't go there will be nothing to worry about.
Any teacher should be aware (particularly these days) of the issues involved with being alone with children in non-school hours or settings. The teacher should know better than that. (Is there any chance it went like this: Your grandson may have said he'd like to come visit the teacher, and she may have said, "sure - you can come some time" but the teacher was only being polite to a little kid and had no intention of following up?)

Are we talking to his home? If the answer is yes then we may have a problem.
Have your grandson ask his teacher if it would be alright for another adult (i.e yourself or another family member) to accompany him over to his home.
If your grandson's teacher agrees to that then Id say proceed at your own discretion. But it shouldn't be anything to worry about.
If he disagrees then I wouldn't allow it, you should also speak to a principle or other higher up about it.
As an aspiring educator, Id say its ok for our children to become friends with their teachers. But we should also be weary of potential threats and be ready to protect our kids.

.
Quite frankly, you need to stop right where you are and contact the board of eduction in your area. Speak directly to the president or the assistant. Bring this same question up to them and give them the names..obviously.
Contact your local news channel and let them know what has been reported to you.
If the teacher is a female, white, in her mid 20's, cute and has a nice bumper.... visit her first and ask her to meet you at your place for a little night cap.

If the teacher suggesting that your grandson come to his/her house, that is totally inappropriate and needs to be reported to the school principal immediately.

That's just goofy. Why not let the kid have a snack? It sounds a lot safer than lunch in the school cafeteria.

Um yea that is a bit weird. I would do some investigating in that situation. Something is fishy. Did any of your teacher's ever ask you that?

Don't let him go - the hell with what the teacher thinks. Don't take chances. Bring someone big into the school for no reason at all, too.
