Answer 1

My husband is a teacher, he says something that is clearly intended to be taken home and enjoyed there. If it is something not wrapped up, every teacher who spots it will invite themselves to take some of whatever it is. He know this from experience... so if you make cookies, put them in a tin wrapped in some kind of wrapping paper with the teacher's name on the outside. The teacher then has the option of opening it if they want to share, or not. Here is a great cookie recipe:

BUTTERSCOTCH COCONUT COOKIES

Yield: 4 dozen cookies

1 1/3 cups all purpose flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 ¾ cups sweetened shredded dried coconut
1 ½ cups butterscotch chips

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Have ready 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper.

Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together onto a sheet of waxed paper; set aside.

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer on high speed, cream the butter until fluffy and pale yellow. Add the granulated and brown sugars and continue beating until the mixture is no longer gritty when rubbed between your finger and thumb. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on low speed until blended, occasionally stopping the mixer and scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix on low speed or stir with a wooden spoon just until blended. Add the coconut and butterscotch chips, mixing or stirring just until blended.

With dampened hands, shape the dough into 1-inch balls or drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.

Bake the cookies until golden brown around the edges, about 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool briefly on the pans on wire racks before transferring them to the racks to cool completely.

Answer 2

A bouquet of tissue flowers.

Take about 5 squares of toilet tissue and stack evenly.
Fan fold. Use a twistie tie in the middle of fan folded tissue, Then gently pull up layers one at a time alternating each side. It will create a carnation. Make about 3 of these and help your child draw a card with a huge "Thank you for being my teacher" on it. Use lots of colors.

Answer 3

Every year for Teacher Appreciation Week, I used to make the elementary school teachers chocolate-covered strawberries. They loved them!

bypass to a craft or dollar keep, and seek for low-cost, yet cute small metallic buckets or baskets. Fill them with an number of candy or snacks! in case you like, upload a present day card, or a word written out of your baby=) From journey, many instructor like getting snacks that they would be waiting to munch on by the day=) Bake cookies which contain your baby, and enable him/her beautify them! collect some (4-6) and positioned them on a cute, low-cost plate, wrap suitable in sparkling present paper, and you're completed! bypass to a e book place, and detect a cute e book the instructor might like.. or enable your baby p.c.. out a pair to characteristic to the instructor's "college room library" If something, i think of the instructor might like getting a small word, or card with a private message written or drawn via your baby=) those are generally the sweetest, least confusing presents=)

Answer 5

Unique Candy makes a great gift.

Answer 6

No apples, no mugs, and no candy. Maybe one of those Bell jars with brownie mix in them. Or even a jar with pasta mix and a recipe attached.

My mother was a teacher, and she hated apples, mugs and candy. She got too much of them every year.

Answer 7

A card signed by and from all her or his students. Only problem for a person is to collect it.
