I’ve always felt appreciative of those who contribute to my children’s well-being, education, and needs. Needless to say, the pandemic gave me a whole new perspective on life and learning, and it’s safe to say I along with many others got to see what the workload of a teacher is firsthand. The stress of lesson planning, scheduling, adapting to each child’s individual needs {and attitudes}, and finding unique ways to make not only educational but FUN. How in the world do they do it? I mean, seriously, if you know please let me in on the secrets here.
Here are some ways we can show some much-deserved love and appreciation for our teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week happening May 8th – May 12th, 2023!
- Write a note or email from YOU the parent to tell them how much you appreciate them!
- Have {and help} your children complete one or all of our FREE Teacher Appreciation Week Printables and send them in with your child!
- Send some flowers! Or, draw some and drop them off, ahem FREE printable #3!
- Have your children make up a song about their school day and sing it to them in a video clip and email over!
