The end of the school year is so wonderful!  Teachers and students alike daydream about all the wonderful things to come.  However, it’s also a time of reflection over the year that passed, and for many it has a tinge of sadness about the things that will be missed. For these reasons, many teachers give their students parting gifts commemorating the year and looking forward to the next.  Oh, and there is no need to spend a fortune, most students are perfectly happy receiving goodies from your local dollar store.  Here are 7 amazing end of the year gift ideas for students that you must see:

1. Pencils

Any teacher out there can testify to the fact that pencils are forever in need!  Students are constantly misplacing them, so what better gift to give than that which they will need most.  You can personalize the pencils with messages like the one’s below.  You can also add an extra touch by including pencils with designs that your students will love.

2. Bookmarks

If your end of the year gift is a bookmark, then you’ll be encouraging your students to continue reading throughout the summer, while also including personalized messages.

7. Sweet Treats

I don’t typically encourage sharing food in the classroom simply because many families and students have dietary restrictions and/or allergies.  Therefore, use this gift idea with a good deal of caution.  If you’ve done your due diligence in the beginning of the year, know all dietary restrictions and allergies and have the go-ahead of school’s administration then this might be a nice idea to try out.

Hmmm, now I will go ponder teacher gifts, which is equally important :P.

What do you give a farewell student?

' Mugs, Key chains, photo frames, mouse pad pens etc . , many of which can be personalised with a touching message from your heart or you can make it interesting by giving teacher's signature on the mug set so whenever they will have tea or coffee it will give the feeling and warmth of their teacher.
