Thank You Teachers!

TEACHER APPRECIATION: teacher's day - Teacher Appreciation Week 2010

If you appreciate the knowledge you have acquired over the years thanks to your teachers, Teacher Appreciation week which lasts from the 3rd till the 7th May 2010, is the week in which you can show your gratitude. Dedicated to the celebration of your favourite teachers worldwide, it is a week in which you can reward the teacher of your choice with a present.

These come in different shapes and sizes, depending on the ideas of the students who offer gifts to their teachers.

Teacher appreciation week is the perfect time in the year to take a moment to show your appreciation to teachers for all the effort they put in each day to teach and for the education that we receive thanks to them.

Teacher appreciation week 2010 will include lots of fun events and activities and it is a great opportunity to increase interaction between teachers and students. Most schools have their own way of celebrating it, so find out more by asking your professors what will be organised!

Tuesday the 4th May will represent Teacher Appreciation day 2010 where students can offer their presents to their chosen teacher(s). You can download a free teacher of the year award here and then you can customise it this year !
Teacher appreciation week is not only a way for students to celebrate their teachers but also for people to learn more about teaching as a profession and its merits worldwide since teaching is done differently in each country.

Another important benefit from teacher appreciation week is that teachers themselves can discover why their teaching is appreciated and what kind of teaching is considered fun and informative by the students.

Exchanges of this sort are always useful both for the teacher to ameliorate his teaching and for the student to feel encouraged to learn by letting the teacher know what he/she likes best.

In sum, this event is the one and only opportunity that you can take to officially show your gratitude, so make sure you note down the date of teacher appreciation week 2010 !!

Yep, thanks to the Teachers! And, to all of the teachers here on sowal.com as well!!! I have learned a lot here.

we LOVE all our teachers! this is the week to go all out and show them so! of course, we need to express our appreciation all year long for the great care our teachers give to our children - just think of how that teacher spends every single day preparing a beautiful, loving, inspiring, safe, warm, enriching environment for children to learn and thrive. Its fun to have a week to shower them with thanks in many forms: breakfast, lunch, parents doing carpool, little gifts, big gifts, pampering, massage, a poem of gratitude, a hand made card, a single flower, a big big hug. kids and parents really get into it at our school. and teachers LOVE it! it makes us all remember to be grateful not only for our teachers but for a good education in general!

and don't forget the extracurricular teachers out there - coaches, piano teachers, master sifu... etc.

behind every great kid, behind every great man or woman.... you will find extraordinary people who help us grow and learn all our lives.

I am who I am and where I am today because of the MANY great teachers I had at every phase of my schooling! :wub:

Hear! Here! :clap:

As a retired teacher of 27 years of sharing in children's lives, I thank all of you!!!!

Aww...thank you! This is so nice! A couple of masseuses were brought in from a local spa and we were all given massages during our planning time this week...so nice!!!!:wub: :clap:
