The past school year was challenging for educators because of the new teaching methods and new stressors. Your child’s teacher could use extra appreciation for Teacher Appreciation Week, which begins May 3rd.
Here are some ways parents can show appreciation for their teachers’ hard work.
Be creative
Handmade gifts can be very meaningful, especially when your child helps you make them. This way, your child’s teacher will receive a gift from you and you. You can make various crafts with your child to bring a smile to their face. You can collaborate with other parents to create a class project such as a book in which every student contributes one page.
Consider small crafts when choosing a project. This will make it easier to keep. It will be easier to store large crafts, such as posters or large framed pictures.
Send a virtual tribute.
Parents who don’t wish to give a gift can recognize their teachers online. Send an e-card or video thank you note, or post a celebration on social media.
Another advantage to a virtual message? It’s easy for parents to reach out to other students and send them a collective thank you. A class video could be made from student submissions or a collage with all students holding signs with sweet messages.
Organize a fundraiser
Teachers often pay for their supplies from their own pockets, so it is worth organizing a fundraising drive to help raise funds for next year’s classroom necessities. It is possible to solicit donations from students’ families and others in your local community interested in supporting teachers. You can also use an online fundraising platform like Go Fund Me to make it easier. However, many of these platforms charge fees or take a portion of the money raised.
Give a gift
Gifts for teachers are a great way to show your appreciation. Choose something personalized to the teacher’s interests when you are shopping for a gift. Teachers will feel appreciated and valued if they receive a gift tailored to their interests. To buy a larger gift your child’s teacher will remember, pool your money with other parents.
Flowers, gift cards or donations to charity are all great options. A gift basket or fancy envelope can add a personal touch and increase the presentation value.
Write a letter
If none of these options seems right, you can write a letter of appreciation. You can also ask your child to write a letter expressing appreciation, perhaps by sharing their favorite teacher’s class. Sometimes, all it takes to show your care is expressing your thoughts and putting in a little effort.
