This is what honoring teachers means to me. #resiliencechat
1st chat, ya'll. A1: My favorite lens for teacher appreciation is through a supportive administrator. They typically send up the "I get how hard you're working" sign #resiliencechat
A1 When my mom was in rehab, former students recognized her and came up to her. She was around 90, and they were in their 60s. And she obviously meant a great deal to them. #resiliencechat
A2: letters from students, personally coming by during class changes to say hi/thank you, emailing overheard positive coversations from students to the teacher they were talking about (personal fav!) #resiliencechat
A3 Back in the '80s when I was a part-time instructor at several community colleges, I had several students who were returning to school after many years away who were grateful for me. #resiliencechat
A3 I was in my early to mid twenties, and these women were in their forties or fifties and they were incredibly gracious. Their sincere gratitude sufficed. #resiliencechat
A1: Teacher appreciation menas you respect and are grategul towrds your teacher for the time and effort they put in to make you are great student and person overall #resiliencechat
A4: As a former high school teacher anything a student made for me meant the world to me. I still have a Christmas Tree, a baby blanket, a weird cat, and a carved walnut. They took the time to show me their appreciation #resiliencechat
Right? It matters. I throw out everything and I kept these things. I can even tell you the first and last names of each student who gave them to me. #resiliencechat
Good question - not sure. Our district has a $50 limit for student to teacher. A friend didn't comply, accepted a Burberry scarf and Kendra Scott earrings, and other kids got a weird vibe from the exchange #resiliencechat
A4: there should definitely be an extent to how far a student can go to giving gifts because some gifts can be inappropriate for students to give teachers #resiliencechat
I always make a point to brag on the students who made things in the past for me (always displayed). It reinforces that everything is appreciated. I still have a portrait of an apple a kid made when he learned how to use shadow and light in art class #resiliencechat
A3: Loving parents for every student; enough food for every student; a safe home for students to go to each night and hope for each student. #resiliencechat
A5: if you can think of others and give, it’s demonstrates caring for others. The ability to care for others shows and can give you strength. #resiliencechat
A5: Whether they're bought, made, or expressed, receiving gifts validates my struggles as a teacher. It's sort of like a RESET button. Added bonus - it puts me in a better mindset to serve my kids #resiliencechat
A5: if you can think of others and give it shows caring for others. The ability to care for others can both demonstrate strength and give strength. #resiliencechat
