So, the holidays are coming, and we're all about to get and give presents. And sometimes kids give their teachers(usually their favorites) gifts also. I've got my math, spanish, and p.e. teachers set. The only one remaining, is...if you guys havent guessed it, my band director. His gift, I need it to be special. Not just because I've known him three years...but also because he's made such a big impact on me. I want to give him something besides candy. :tongue3: And the other "regular" items kids give to teachers. I..just need it to be special. Ya'll have any ideas on what I could get him?
-
a Diamond ring and make him your husband :P
-
Aye Vex, get real :tongue3: Thats really scary. He's around 45 years old. Old enough to be my father
-
You could probably get him a small-medium sized trinket...musically involved...or wait...is that not 'special' enough for you hm? *smirks*
-
Buy him Ramen Noodles!!

:rotfl: Silly Vex!! But I would just love that :tongue3:
Maybe you could stay with the music theme...? Sheet music? How about a CD or something of his favourite composer/aritist?
-
chocolate!

Whatever you do, DO NOT get him a candle, Teachers get way too many of those to begin with!
Perhaps a coffee mug? With something musical on it?
((Somehow I get the impression he rather likes coffee lol))

Get him a BIG Coffee mug with this on the side: "I DRINK TOO MUCH COFFEE O_O"

A CD might be good. That's what we give to our music teacher.
-
Try giving him something he'll like and need
-
Let's see, since I'm going to be a teacher, I would suggest a statue. Not something too fancy, but has to do with music. That's a plus!
-
do you know how expensive Statues are!? like $50+, Anything cheaper than that is shoddy merchandise.
buy him the Mona Lisa.

I got my dad a small statue for $5. I'm not saying anything expensive. Just a small trinket.
-
so you mean model? lol
how about a gift that is sentimental? like has a lot of emotional attatchment, making it 'more' than a gift, per say.
Not just a gift but something thought out with effort, Maybe something to do with a photo, original music sheet created yourself or maybe something else along those lines. You know him better than me XD

Back when I was in the 7th grade, music was one of our requirements (so was courus*sp* actually)
Anywho, I know music is different from Band, but when christmax came around we gave our music teacher disks of music, some of the student actually did give her statues
I think I gave her a sheet of music. Anyway, seeing how I plan on being a teacher. I think the best to give them would be either a statue that is about music, or a sheet of music, preferably somethign they don't already have (if you can determine what they don't have)
-
A piece of music you wrote yourself would be cool...
Or pins? I got my band teacher this killer treble clef pin, that was all sparkly...
Ties are useful. Everyone needs ties, for performances and such.

You guys all have cool ideas. What frustrates me the most though is that I've known him for about 3 years...and I have no clue what his likes and dislikes are. I JUST found out today, that his favorite cookie is White Chocolate Macadamia Nut..my personal favorite to XD. But, all the teachers today got a bagful of cookies, so I dont think he needs anymore cookies. As to his favorite CD's etc. I dunno what his favorites are 0_0. The coffee mug with the "I drink to much coffee." is a good one, I just dont know where to get one like that. Sheet music? I've wrote some myself. but frankly, they suck. *shrugs* Least ways thats what I think. And its nothing really for him if you think about it. As for candles...he doesnt seem like a 'candle guy' anyway if you get my drift. *sighs* All good ideas. but nothing really that I could get him... my mom says male teachers are harder, but thats not true. last year i gave 2 guy teachers candy...its just that...well my band director has to be different.. ya know?
