Teacher Appreciation Week

Many people take the fact that they were able to go to school for granted. If they hadn't gone to school, they wouldn't have been able to get in far in life as possible. Many students today take their teachers for granted as well. Some might think that the only reason the teachers are there is because it's their job. That's not the case, however. Many teachers teach simply because they enjoy it. Teacher Appreciation Week is a time for all students and former students to express their appreciation to their teachers.

The history for both Teacher Appreciation Day and Teacher Appreciation Week are unclear. However, it is said that the idea became popular around 1950 when Eleanor Roosevelt attempted to persuade Congress into having a day to recognize teachers and educators. In 1980, Congress declared for Teacher Appreciation Day to become a national holiday. In 1985, Teacher Appreciation Week was established by the Parent Teacher Association, or PTA, and is celebrated every year during the first full week of May.

Teacher Appreciation Week can be very fun to celebrate. Some students like to set up a breakfast for all the teachers. Others like to write notes and cards to give to their teachers telling them how much they love being in their class. Former students may write letters telling their old teachers how much they impacted their life. Below are some items that you can give to your teacher to show them how much you appreciate them.

Teacher Appreciation Week was started in 1984 by the National Parent Teacher Association. After this full week of awareness was created, National Teacher Day was moved from March 7 to the Tuesday during Teacher Appreciation Week. Both holidays are great to celebrate, as it is teachers who educate the next generation of doctors, engineers, and technicians. Teachers don't typically get paid enough for the amount of work they do. That is why it is important to show your teachers that you appreciate them during Teacher Appreciation Week.
