Teacher Appreciation

Teacher Appreciation BookOne of my favorite things is volunteering in my childrens’ classrooms.  I love the chance to get to know their teachers, their classmates, and above all to see how they fit into their class.  This year I had the opportunity to help with reading and art in my son’s second grade classroom, which gave me a unique opportunity to help the students create a one-of-a-kind keepsake for their teacher at the end of the school year.

On the facing page they wrote a personal message to their teacher, and created an “apple” by drawing a stem and leaf on their own thumbprint.  The students couldn’t wait to see the finished project – but kept the surprise beautifully for several weeks until it was time to present it to their teacher.  The little 4×4″ book won’t take up much room on her shelf, but in this case the best things really do come in small packages!
