National Teacher Appreciation Week 2010

Celebrate your teachers all week long! May 3rd through 7th is the official National Teacher Appreciation Week. Started around 1953 with the help of Eleanor Roosevelt, the tradition of officially taking the time to recognize teachers has gone from a particular day to an entire week.

The Parent Teacher Association (PTA) designated the first week of May as National Teacher Appreciation Week in 1985. May 4th was declared National Teacher Day by congress in 1980. Rightfully so, the PTA decided that one day was simply not enough to recognize all the hard work teachers put in every day of the year.

There are many ways to get involved in Teacher Appreciation Week. This could be anything from bringing in a gift such as the classic apple if the student is still in school to writing a quick e-mail to a former teacher. My Teacher, My Hero even supplies a way to post a short thank-you video on the Internet.

It doesn’t take a lot to make a teacher feel special. Much like Mothers Day, Teacher Appreciation Week just gives us a friendly reminder that a thank you is in order. Pass the message along and help us thank some of the most important people in our lives.
