Whether you’re collecting information about teachers for the PTA or Sunshine Committee, to share with parents during Teacher Appreciation Week, or simply to plan how to spread joy among your staff, this Teacher’s Favorite Things form captures everything you need to know. Coffee or tea? Favorite hobby? What’s on their wish list?
Inside the Teacher’s Favorite Things Form
We designed this Teacher’s Favorite Things questionnaire to capture specifics and generalities, so you can use the information to get specific gifts (cards to your teachers’ favorite stores) and set up general appreciation that you know your teachers will love (e.g., should your staff lounge have more coffee or tea?).
How To Use the Teacher’s Favorite Things Form
Here are some ways principals and teacher leads can use this form:
- Beginning of the year: At the start of the year, have teachers complete this form. Then you can use the information to plan big and small teacher appreciation all year long. Once you know a teacher’s coffee order or their favorite snacks, you can purchase just the thing to make them smile.
- Get-to-know-you bulletin board: If you collect this information at the start of the year, you can present it in the staff lounge. What percent of staff prefers chocolate to vanilla? Where might you find teachers shopping on a Saturday? All this information can become a fun, interactive staff bulletin board.
- Share with parents: Parents want to make teachers happy, but they might not know what to purchase. Share this information with parents so they can get teachers what they really appreciate, not just another mug (unless, of course, a mug is on their wish list!).
