Teacher Appreciation Blog

As we celebrate Teacher Appreciation Week 2009 we always think of what to give to our favourite teachers simply because we want to show to them now that we truly love them and appreciate their efforts in the classrooms. Yet, many people and supporters for teachers also have no ideas what to give. The giving of scrap books is now one of the best we can offer to them. In fact, many students and children around the world have been taught how to make good scrap books they can give to teachers during teacher appreciation days.

Here are some steps we can consider in preparing for a good scrap book. Remember that many teachers would feel happy seeing their photos on scrap books.

1. Prepare used multi-color magazines – To minimize cost you need to prepare only used magazines. This is where you can cut colored titles and other designs to make your scrap book looks elegant and presentable.

2. Collect all photos of your favourite teacher – Find old photos of your favourite teacher you are to include in the scrap book. You can ask from your classmates. I’m sure they have old photos of school events where you favourite teacher was also included.

3. Prepare used car boards or any hard boards – Your scrap will look like a hardbound material if you also use card boards to make it nicely made. Covered the card boards with white bond paper by pasting it so that it would be glued properly. Cut the card boards in the same sizes and start connecting them by using clips or whatever you like. You can also use glue to make them hardbound.

4. Place the photos of your teachers in every page – Paste the photos in the card boards according to your design concepts. Your creativity will determine how good you are in making your scrap book.
