Do you have fond memories of your teachers from elementary school? I can’t remember all the details but I remember Mrs. Rudisill.
She was a kind, tall woman who was my first grade teacher. (I think. Who can remember all those years ago?!)
I was the gawky shy kid (still am sometimes!) She always encouraged me and made me feel so welcomed and valued that year.
Books were my friends back then, and Mrs. Rudisill made sure we learned to read and love them as well.
Fast forward to 1994 and our decision to homeschool. Our oldest daughter was five and it was time to decide her future education.
That decision came when my husband casually mentioned he thought I should homeschool Rachel. What a Pandora’s box his comment opened!
25 years ago there weren’t the resources and community available to new homeschoolers like there are today. But I wasn’t ready to turn over my daughter’s education to someone else. Like most every thing else I do, I was all in.
Little did I know we would end up adopting a sibling group of three children and homeschool all five over 23 years.
I know that my love of learning was planted early through a caring teacher. Even if you’re not a homeschool mom, you want to encourage those precious men and women who teach your children diligently every day.
Today I’ve rounded up 21+ back to school teacher gift ideas from my favorite bloggers. Spend a few minutes with your kids and find a project to surprise and delight those new teachers this year!
