Choosing a gift for a teacher for the New Year is not an easy task. It should be pleasant but not formal, beautiful but not too expensive. To take into account all the nuances, it is better to prepare in advance. Then you will definitely be able to share the festive mood with the person you value and respect.
First you need to decide who will prepare the gift for the teacher. If you plan to hand it over to the whole class, then you can consider these options.
Gifts from the whole class
- New Year's toys. High-quality and beautiful glass toys are now expensive, so they look very good as an option for a collective gift. This also includes the Christmas tree itself - for example, the desktop version, which can be left in the classroom until the holidays. Now you can find not only artificial, but also natural mini-Christmas trees.
- Certificates. The most common gift now that gives the teacher the freedom of choice. The certificate can be selected for a man and a woman, for health, for useful things, etc.
- Stationery sets. These subjects will always be used by teachers. You can choose an option that will remain on the teacher's table, or will be used by the teacher for personal purposes.
- If children and parents know exactly about the hobbies of their mentor, then this makes it possible to donate something related to a hobby.
- Book / e-book. For a teacher, you can choose manuals for a pedagogical profile or find out his tastes in fiction. An electronic gadget, of course, will generally provide the teacher with endless choices.
Gift from the student personally
- Tea, coffee, sweets, etc. An important emphasis is on packaging. Stylish or unusual jar / box - and the surprise is ready. This can also include a cake or a New Year's fantasy in a basket.
- The calendar. You can order this accessory in the New Year's style or add photos of students to it. The calendar can be desktop or wall.
- A potted flower is a great option if the teacher loves tending the plants.
- Theater, cinema, show tickets.
- T-shirt with an inscription. For example, "Class teacher", "We follow you" etc.
- DIY gift. Many teachers appreciate children's creativity and non-standard approach. This could be a newspaper, a homemade souvenir, or a mini-concert.
- Pointers of all kinds, including laser ones.
Gifts can be presented not only to the class teacher. You can also pay attention to subject students. The main thing is to take into account the gender of the teacher, age and the subject that he teaches. For example:
- tea set "UK" for an English teacher
- case for a laptop, a USB flash drive, a mouse, a card reader for a computer science teacher
- Newton's pendulum or "perpetual" motion machine for a physics teacher
- set "Grow a tree" for biology teacher
- clock with formulas instead of numbers for mathematician
- stopwatch, whistle or fitness bracelet for the physical education teacher
