Appreciate Your Teacher

In case you didn't know it's teacher appreciation week. As an elementary teacher, I can personally attest to all the hard work and effort we teachers do to help our students be successful in all that they do. Make sure you show your child's teacher appreciation this week!

Today, my students brought me fresh flowers today; lilacs, tulips, roses, peonies, and sunflowers, freshly picked from their yards. It was such a sweet gesture of recognition, and made for a lovely, fragrant bouquet that is perfuming my classroom as we speak.

    Don't think it's Teacher Appreciation Day in Canada though... Haven't seen any flowers or gifts on my desk so far this week!

  11. I'm so glad you reminded me of this. My husband is a teacher! Last night I made a really good dinner (BIG stretch for me to be in the kitchen!) and completely cleaned the house, on top of completing a full work day. I felt very domestic. I think I'm going to tell him that was just part of his teacher appreciation week, haha!
