Oh Goody!: Teacher Goodie Bags with A Teacher's Gift Poem

It's in the bag! Since I am so proud of all the children, I made a little bag of goodies that would surely make any child's summer bright. I can't believe that they are all graduating. It seems like only yesterday when we welcomed the students to our classroom.

The goodie bags were so easy to put together too! The items were all purchased from the mecca that is Hobby Lobby. They included a kaleidoscope, magnifying glass, rings  for the girls, bugs for the boys, bubbles and colored chalk. All of the gifts were placed in a clear, cellophane bag and tied together with brightly-colored, curled ribbon.

I attached the following A Teacher's Gift poem which I re-worded from an existing poem I found on the Internet. I included all of the gifts that were found in the goody bags in the verse. The clip art sun was found on the massively marvelous free clip art site clker.com and the font used was SchoolHouse Printed A on Mac operating systems.

I have included a card I created using an incredibly cute stamper and crayons that is attached to the bag also.


The first poem is for the girls. The second poem is for the boys 

A Teacher’s Gift 

Chalk to add “color” to your summer fling. 

A magnifying glass to explore everything. 

A ring to add a little bling. 

Bubbles to play with as you dance and sing. 

and a kaleidoscope for some extra zing! 

Have a Great Summer,

A Teacher’s Gift 

Chalk to add “color” to your summer fling, 

A magnifying glass to explore everything. 

A creepy crawly for a spooky thing. 

Bubbles to play with as you dance and sing. 

and a kaleidoscope for some extra zing. 

Have a Great Summer,

We're having bucket-loads of fun!

Hey there skater boy!
