Only a month and a half left of the school year! Where did the time go?!? Anyone organizing a class gift for their teacher?
I organized our class gift for Christmas (a Target GC) and wanted to do something different this time. I was thinking of flowers, a Lowes/HD GC, and a card signed by the kids that says "thanks for helping us grow." What do you think?

In DS's room, a mom is getting a money book type of thing together. The kids fill out questions about the teacher/year also. The teacher can remove the $ and have a class keepsake.
I don't know what we'll do for DD's teacher. We'll probably do a GC to Talbots. I do have them make cards for their teacher each year.
Depending on the class/grade dynamics and age another idea is "Property of (Teacher's Name)" Pencils... It seemed that DD's teacher was CONSTANTLY asking for pencils all year long and how quickly that kids were going through her supply (and of course never returning them)... It's one of those things that's functional but also a "splurge" the teacher could use without creating clutter..
My favorite gift from a student was a sharpie with a hand-written note that said "thanks for making me a sharpie in music". Too cute. I cried.
