"Teacher Appreciation Day" by Lynn Plourde (May Report)
Our school acknowledged Teacher Appreciation Week the first week in May.
We had a new book in our collection called "Teacher Appreciation Day".
We thought it was the perfect time to read this story.
Maybella Jean Wishywashy has a difficult time making decisions.
Rather than choose one item for breakfast, she has several foods from eggs to muffins,
cereals and jams. Because of this, she also has a hard time selecting a gift for her teacher.
She chooses so many items that they fill a shopping cart. During the school day Maybella
cleans everything, draws everything and picks everything in nature for her teacher,
who has become quite overwhelmed with her generosity.
A local TV station comes to do a report on Teacher Appreciation Day.
What will the students say?
Will Maybella Jean Wishywashy know what to say?
You'll be surprised by her response.
We discussed ways to show our teachers appreciation without spending money.
Some ideas were to follow their instructions the first time, be quiet when they ask
and help out where possible. They could also draw pictures or make cards to let their
teachers know they are grateful for them. They could even clean out their desks.:)
