5 Gifts Teachers Will Appreciate
As a teacher, I've had the pleasure of receiving my fair share of gifts from students and their families. Sometimes they are items that are thoughtful, and practical. Other times, while I appreciate the sentiment, I'm not sure what to do with it. There are only so many cups and mugs one can own...
Teachers often put a LOT of their own money into supplies for their classrooms. Although we send home supply lists at the start of the year, the reality is, it's not enough. Some students don't come with any supplies at all. And many are often worn out or lost by Christmas.
While homemade candies and sweets are thoughtful, as teachers we ask you to reconsider something more practical. Remember that many of us, teachers included, struggle with maintaining healthy diets around the holidays. Instead of taking the chance of your gift not being eaten and enjoyed, chose a reasonably priced, practical gift teachers will actually use and appreciate.
