Top tips from parents, for teachers
LITOGRAPHS.COM: Art from Books
“For amazing and unique gifts! Choose t-shirts, posters, tote bags, or infinity scarves. Then select the text from a specific book and the entire text is printed on that item—arranged to look like a picture. I’ve purchased a shirt with King Lear, a poster with Dante’s Inferno, and a tote with The Secret Garden. Most of the featured works are taught by our teachers. Request a discount code if you are purchasing something for educational purposes.”
CLASSIC CLASSICS
“Can be found at garage sales, used bookstores, and even Amazon. Look for fancy, unique, or vintage copies. Don’t leave out the science and math teachers. There are interesting books on astronomy, botany, physics, and even time travel. And, theology books work for everyone.”
GIFT CARDS
“Because they can decide if they want to get something for the classroom or something personal for themselves. They love them!!!”
WIZARD SUPPLIES
“For guys (and maybe gals too—just not my wife) get a pipe like Gandalf’s. Look on Amazon.”
MAPS
“Old.”
