Narrative:
On about a 5 NM [final to] runway 15; a helicopter (who had made no previous calls) announced 3 NM final ILS runway 33. I let him know our position specifically to avoid [an] incident. The helicopter said he was going to go missed and stay at 500 AGL to avoid me and the traffic in the pattern. Once I reached 2000 MSL (1000 AGL) I told my student to look up; all of the sudden I saw the helicopter climbing through our altitude within 500 ft then broke off direct ikiby for the RNAV 22. The helicopter was over runway 33; and we were over taxiway a.
