teacher leaving By Bertie

I like your idea of each child presenting a flower - they did that at my retirement, and the vase was my gift. Also, another teacher helped my kids write a book for me, one page per child that was a nice keepsake.
Two| more suggestions came to mind right away.. she'd like to know that she won't be forgotten. So how about some hard cover books for the library with her name on a bookplate inside - maybe copies of her favorite read alouds? For one person who was leaving, who'd been a science teacher, we named the science room room after him - we had a sign made on corrugated plastic at a local sign | | shop, and it wasn't too expensive but looked good.
When I retired and got nice cards from my students and their parents, it occurred to me that I would have liked to hear from former students too. Maybe there is a way that children who have been in her classroom in the past could be invited to send her a card c/o the school that could be presented to her that day as well. I know I would love that.:D
