slightly regretting the card dd2 gave to her teacher this morning

[workshy]

she made a card herself and put a little poem in it

she did a picture of bags and shoes because apparently the teacher likes them and then the poem in the middle was going well until she wanted a rhyme for bag and ended up with the line

'you're not a boring old hag'

please tell me the teacher will find this funny -she is teaching my other dd next year!!!

Fab! She will love it - and probably remember it far more than a more conventional thank you card

Brillant! What's not to like?

As a teacher I love it.

At least she included the word 'not'! Her teacher will love it

No, that's fine.

It'll make her smile!

My DD made bracelets for both of her teachers. One had the initials on it FT - for Favourite Teacher, the other had SF, for Second Favourite

However that ^^ is just harsh!

I am sure they will love it. My best ever card from a child was when I was leaving. They had written

'Sorry you're living'

Folkgirl But she meant it in a nice way I hope, anyway it was better than her original plan which was to use the letters SB - Second Best. Both her teachers are wonderful and I am sure hope they were pleased, if only for the amount of effort she put into making the blasted things.

In Year 4 my daughter did a thank you for her teacher that she liked. The teacher in question had a lot of sickness, nothing in particular just a lot of different things, for example chest infection and bad ankle. She had a regular cover teacher for a lot of the time.

She said "Thanks for teaching me for half the year"

I let her give it to her. The teacher had a sense of humour so I hope she laughed.

DD's said

I will miss you, I hope you live the next year 1 to. Live DD

I kind of hope her teacher will survive teaching next years year 1 too

I still have a card that says
'Thank you for being a fantastic techr and lerning me spelings and uvr fings.'

That child is now 31, I wonder what he's doing?

Ds drew a picture of his teacher in which her hair is completely grey.
She is not grey (thanks to her hairdresser)

And his other card started off...

"I fancy yu"

(think he meant "I thank you")

DD's only just started writing and tends to put words wherever she finds a space, so her card to pre-school staff read 'love lots of DD'.

I love cards like that.

One of mine had a limerick about me which made me laugh out loud.

Another one said 'Dear MrsPantryBoy, you are the best teacher I have ever had (so far)'
I loved the fact that I may be usurped in the future!

I had one saying "you are my third best teacher (Miss xxx is number 1)", I've no idea who is second!

My DD2 Yr2 made her lucky lucky[ ] teacher a painted paper crown which I guess she was then required to wear.
and the poem

Miss F , your class is lots of fun
Just like me you love to run
the thing that i liked the most
was the trip to the coast
i like pe in the hall
gymnastics was the best of all
i like it when you give me a hard sum
when i'm sitting on my bum
i made some soap to keep me clean
I played tennis in a team.

I think the poet laureate can sleep soundly for a few years at least!!

I know someone whose daughter could only be persuaded to write 'ANCIENT SPIDERS' in a thank you card. Count your blessings.
