Some of them would like anything they get from a student, but here real teachers reveal what theyβd most like to receive.
- ββWe donβt expect anything and appreciate everything. Hand written cards and notes mean more than you could imagine and are saved.β
- βFlair pens are ALWAYS welcome.β
- βSome parents have asked what my favorite Starbucks drink is and then they actually deliver it) great way to start the day.β
- βI love anything useful! Especially things like cute notepads, post-its, pens, art supplies, etc.β
- βA heartfelt note or letter or drawing is what I cherish.β
- βGift cards!Teacherspayteachers.comgift cards are great as well as personal ones to Target or Walmart or other places the teacher may have on their favorites.β
- βMy favorites are handwritten notes of thanks from the kids or parents. I keep them under my desk calendar to read on the tough days. Itβs also awesome when the parent sends me a POSITIVE email and copies my principal on it! That means so much!β
- βHelpful??? Supplies for hands-on projects that would typically come from my own money. Appreciated? Handmade and/or personal gifts.β
- βI value a note or letter from a student. I know it is not as practical as a Starbucks gift card, but it helps me to know that my efforts are not in vain. The idea that I make a difference... that feeds my soul.β
- βOne year all my studentsβ families pooled money together for a gift card to a spa. Best.present.ever.β
