The Perfect Year-End Gift For Teachers
Have you ever found yourself in a dilemma over a gift for a teacher?
This time of year, it’s a sentiment echoed by many parents.
What do you buy? How much should you spend? And what do teachers really want, anyway?
Calgary teachers say parents shouldn’t be afraid to ask teachers what they need in their class. Most teachers wish parents would believe them when they say letters, notes, cards and heartfelt thanks mean the most. A Grade 4/5 teacher opens her presents in front of her students each year to showcase gifts that will be beneficial to the whole class. But how do you select an impactful gift?
Teachers work hard year round to make the school year special for your children. As the school year draws to a close, if you want to show your appreciation with more than a heartfelt thank-you note, why not show your appreciation for their work by giving the gift of a Wordfest event.
Whether it be in the form of an author school visit, or a fieldtrip to a Wordfest event in theatre, the gift of a Wordfest event not only provides students with an exceptional opportunity to see a live literary event, it also helps teachers enrich their lesson plans by:
- Expanding their teaching opportunities.
- Enhancing classroom learning and helping them meet curriculum objectives.
- Providing them with supplementary reading guides and classroom activities.
It’s a gift for teachers and students! Learn more about the benefits of the Wordfest Youth program by visiting https://wordfest.com/youth/.
