OT: Need Teacher Poems

[SalandJeff]

I am putting together two memory/scrapbooks for dd's kindergarten teachers. They are from the class. I was hoping to include a poem about teachers. I did a google search, but wasn't crazy about any that I have come across.

Anyone have any good poems?

Thanks.

Number One Teacher

(Name of teacher),
I'm happy that you're my teacher;
I enjoy each lesson you teach.
As my role model you inspire me
To dream and to work and to reach.

With your kindness you get my attention;
Every day you are planting a seed
Of curiosity and motivation
To know and to grow and succeed.

You help me fulfill my potential;
I'm thankful for all that you've done.
I admire you each day, and I just want to say,
As a teacher, you're number one!

Special Teacher

Thank you special teacher
For helping me to know
The things I need to learn
To live my life and grow.

I feel good with you because
Your teaching makes me see,
If I work at it, I can do it.
Thanks for showing me!

We'll Remember You

Thank you teacher for helping us
To learn what we need to know
We'll all remember you
No matter where we go.

Thank you teacher for being
So nice and kind and good;
We like you so much, teacher,
We'd stay here if we could!

bumping...anyone else.

Thanks for these - I had already seen them by googling, but was hoping for others.

Google the colors of a teacher. It's a nice poem.

I think I used one once called "A Teacher for All Seasons"???

I've seen it many times, but as a preschool teacher, I like it:

One Hundred Years From Now
Author: (excerpt from "Within My Power" by Forest Witcraft)

One hundred years from now
It won't matter
What kind of car I drove
What kind of house I lived in
How much money I had in the bank
Nor what my cloths looked like
BUT
The world may be a little better
Because, I was important
In the life of a child.​

How about this?

I know her name
And she knows me
I love my teacher
She set me free.
I came in scared
And didn't know
That learning's fun!
But she taught me so.
I am so glad
She taught my K
Now watch out world!
I'm on my way.

Writer? *Me* ! (PM me if you'd like to give my name for the credit.)
