Today marks the start of National Teacher Appreciation Week – a great opportunity to show teachers how much they matter to us.
One great way to thank teachers is by supporting organizations that help them do their best work. I recently met with representative of one such organization, the Teaching Channel, an online community of teachers who create and share “how-to” videos, like the one above, that illustrate ideas for how to be more effective in the classroom.
Another great way to thank teachers is by simply celebrating the teaching profession – both the incredible commitment it requires and the profound impact it has on the lives of students.
In this spirit, I asked a question to teachers in a blog in March: When did you know you wanted to teach?
Beautiful responses poured in from across the country. Below are just a few of my favorites.
