[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are we doing teacher appreciation week gifts now? I thought we saved gifts until the last week of school?[/quote]

Don’t you know? Moms have to EARN Mother’s DAY by spending the entire week before doing Teacher Appreciation WEEK. Multiple handwritten cards, gift cards and more, including instructions on each teacher’s favorite color, flower, candy, restaurant, etc. Don’t forget to do all of this emotional labor and recognition of others for a full week, on top of everything else you have to do, so you can earn one day of rest.

Yeesh. Tell your husband to pick up a gift card on the way home from work and put down the cross.

I'm a room parent and I'm not doing any of that.  I'm having my daughter make a card from construction paper and paper clipping a Starbucks gift card inside.  Our teacher will appreciate both and my emotional labor meter is on NBD.[/quote]

I’m a room parent too for all of my kids. You don’t have to volunteer to be room parent if it’s too much work. Another parent with more bandwidth can take it on or you could share duties. Makes for a better experience for everyone — yourself, the class and the teacher.[/quote]
