I did a little teacher appreciation surprise for my staff this week. Let's face it, coming back in January is hard to do. I knew by Wednesday we would all be dragging and struggling to re-acclimate to standing all day and not getting to pee when we need to.
Let's add that is has been brutally cold here in Oklahoma to the mix.
So, on Wednesday, I brought in some tea bags and lemons and homemade cookies and set them all up in the lounge with an urn of hot water. Here is what it looked like:
You can't see the cookies because those suckers were gone in just a few minutes! However, can you see the funny note my principal left? She attached it to the sleepytime tea that came in one of the variety packs. It says, "Do not drink this until you get home!" Isn't that hilarious?
My computer is also in the background. Just to be silly I added some festive polka music. January is National Polka Music Month, National Hot Tea Month, and National Soup Month to name a few.
I went ahead and made a freebie of the tags and signs I created. I also already finished February! Click the link to take you to the FREEBIE.
I think that later this month I will bring in some instant soup packets for teachers to have for lunch and attach these SOUPer tags to them.
This is super cute! Thanks for sharing! :-)
