Free Resources to Celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week

Use these free printables and social media graphics to make teachers feel extra special this year. 

Teacher appreciation week is a big deal. Why? Because teachers make the world go 'round. Just think of all the things you did today that would be nearly impossible if you didn't learn them in school. 

Take this morning, for example, if you made a cup of coffee. How did you know how to read the instructions? English teacher. Measure the right amount of grounds? Math teacher. Or understand that the optimal temperature for brewing is between 195 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit? Science teacher. See, without teachers, there would be no coffee and, thus, chaos.

All kidding aside, the central thesis here is that teachers are gold and deserve to be recognized all year long. Of course, you can do so many things to make them feel extra special, but if you're looking for some simple, low-budget ideas to spread good vibes at your school, these resources will help you get the ball rolling on an unforgettable teacher appreciation week celebration.
