Here's what teachers actually want — and what to avoid.
Being a teacher is one of the most important jobs in the world, but it’s far from easy and can feel thankless at times. While giving a gift at the end of the school year isn’t required, it’s a nice way to tell teachers THANK YOU for being there for our kids every day. We asked our readers onThe most common response? Skip on gifting mugs. Instead, opt for gift cards and/or a thoughtful note. “Mugs. I’ve accumulated so many freaking mugs in teaching years.
“I used to deliver a special lunch during teacher appreciation week to my kids’ teachers. They loved it. I’d drop off a menu and then place the order and deliver!” - Brandie Lumpkin Schwartz “I give my teachers wine gift cards for a bottle of their choice to start the summer with. I know how my kids act…I know that they need it after 10 months with them.” - Sam Jones
“I’m a big fan of the ‘These Are a Few of My Favorite Things’ list. Printable from Pinterest. My kiddos PTA does this and publishes it on their website. It’s been incredibly useful.” - Jennifer Ruble-Darnton “I once got beautiful gift wrapping paper, bows, ribbons…Best gift I ever got and super useful too.

Stop Asking “Why” and Start Asking “How”Many of the verbal instincts and reflexes that we pick up as children (copied from our parents and teachers, who in turn copied them from their parents and teachers) actually undermine our effectiveness when we grow up and apply those same instincts as managers. Asking “Why?” or “Why not?” is one such reflex and can lead us into having conversations which are entirely “back-to-front” – those that take us in the opposite direction to the one in which we wish to go. The logic we have picked up from parents and teachers is that to deal with a problem we must first understand the reasons behind it, and only then can we find the appropriate counterarguments. But there is a quicker, more effective way of addressing the issue. That is, by asking “How.” Asking “How” changes the nature of the conversation as it is forward looking and allows you to identify solutions that will serve the future, not dig up shortcomings from the past.
