Teacher Appreciation Week

Coming May 4-8, 2026!

Ideas for Teacher Appreciation

There are many ways to celebrate our teachers and participate in Teacher Appreciation Week.

Here are a few ideas:

  • Write a note thanking them and telling them what you appreciate most about them.  

  • Use sticky notes to write one thing you appreciate about your teacher on each note. Then give them one sticky note each day of the week.

  • Give them a hug (or high five) and tell them "Thank you"!

  • Draw a picture (and make sure to sign it!). 

  • Make a video for telling them thank you and what you appreciate. You can share it on the Flip site we created to collect all these in one spot!  Note: you do need to sign in to use the site.  (you can use existing Google, Microsoft or Apple accounts to login).

  • Write a poem. Acrostic poems are great and are easy to do!

Are Gifts Expected?

No! Gifts for teachers & specialists are never expected. However, whether it’s teacher appreciation week, a birthday, or something else, sometimes it’s fun to show our teachers how much we appreciate them with a small gift.Â
