The history of Teacher’s Day

The National Education Association states that the origin of National Teacher’s Day is believed to be around 1944, when a teacher from Arkansas named Mattye Whyte Woodridge began to reach out to leaders in politics and education. Woodridge eventually got in contact with Eleanor Roosevelt, and, in 1953, congress of officially declared a National Teacher Day. While congress only observed National Teacher day that year, the NEA continues to observe it. Eventually, the event was chosen to be celebrated on the first Tuesday on the first full week of May.

Why give flowers?

Teachers play a crucial role in your children’s formative years; they work hard each and every day to teach your children the fundamentals of their education, and, at times, teachers need a reminder that their work is not taken for granted. With the daily hustle and bustle of teaching kids and grading papers, teachers need an extra reminder that they are appreciated. A beautiful floral arrangement this teachers day is a great gift idea that will instantly make your teacher happy and will brighten up their classroom.
