It is amazing that teachers are given one week for parents to show their appreciation. Teachers deserve and should be thanked everyday for the amazing work they do.
Ms. Stachura is usually the first person to school and the last person to leave each day. I think back to the first meeting we had and remember telling Gregg how nervous I was for Reece to have her, well I couldn't have been more wrong. She is amazing. We constantly tell each other how lucky we are to have her as Reece's teacher. While she has all the qualities we would want a teacher to have: patience, enthusiasm, laughter,kindness, did we mention patience just to name a few, what she has provided Reece is the belief in himself that he can write his name, that he knows the days of the week, that he certainly can read and comprehend a book all by himself, but mostly his overall excitement and passion for learning. So one week doesn't begin to skim the surface of our gratitude for what she has given our child.
While we regularly try throughout the year to send her notes or emails thanking her, we also wanted to be sure she was honored this week!
We sent her in a few small gift cards for her to enjoy breakfast on us. Our favorite gift by far was an idea I found on Pinterest. It was super easy to assemble and Reece really enjoyed picking out the plant himself!
The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.
