Teaching isn’t just a profession—it’s a calling. What other job asks you to manage upwards of two dozen wily children (who aren’t your own) for nearly eight hours a day? Teachers lay the foundation upon which our children’s future, and our future, is being built. So of course, we want to find as many ways to say thank you as we can, especially during Teacher Appreciation Week.
Yes, they teach math, language arts, and history. But every day, they also teach our kids soft skills that they’ll never be tested on, which are arguably just as important, like emotional regulation and all those problem-resolution skills they put into action on the playground.
