Although the Bell May Ring, Teachers Never Stop Teaching
Today is the day! May 8th, 2012: National Teacher Appreciation Day
The day when we take a moment to recognize the amazing contributions of teachers.
Teachers who supported us, taught us, loved us.
Monday May 7 through Friday May 11, 2012 is National Teacher Appreciation Week; a time to pay tribute to teachers and, as shared by NEA, a time to “honor local educators and acknowledge the crucial role teachers play in making sure every student receives a quality education.”
A time to recognize the many teachers in our past who have given their hearts, minds and souls to nurture in us the things that they saw as vital to our education, critical to our success, and important for our future.
On this #TeacherTuesday I share with you a great little video that salutes teachers around the world who make a difference in the lives of children and adult learners.
Enjoy!
