Look at me I am first! First I must say super cute coffee cuff! Wow! Um, my favorite teacher was actually my third grade teacher. She was very young and SO not set in her ways. She really loved us well and encouraged finding different ways to learn. Her name was Mrs. Cowan and she was pretty incredible!
What an adorable coffee cuff! I hope I win.
My favorite elementary teacher was my first grade teacher. I can't remember now what was so great about her but I always remember how much I loved first grade. I think she was really patient, kind, and fun!
My fvorite was my 3rd grade teacher. She encouraged my love of reading and WAS wonderful when I shy because I had jsut moved here. A question for you..........Waht is he best appreacition gift you have gotten from your class or from a child? I am always looking for good Teacher Appreciation/Christmas gifts for my kids (Pre-K and 2nd grade)
Thanks!!!
Looove the cuff!!
My favorite teacher was my 4th grade teacher, Ms. Bushart. MS.! This was back in the late 70's/early 80's. She was the very first feminist I'd ever known (even though I did realize that until about high school). She lived ALONE and had earthtone stripes painted on her living room wall. I knew this because she lived just around the corner from me and we would try and see in her windows as we walked past. She was the talk of all the parents as she was a MS. and she was a single woman who purchased her own house.
I ADORED HER! She'd read to us every single day after lunch, every day. She taught us all a lesson I've never forgotten, she read a book to us and then we watched the movie. Of course, we were all disappointed in the movie. She told us then that "the book is ALWAYS better." It was "Incident at Hawks Hill." and I still remember it, what, 30 years later!
Ok, does this win any points for the longest comment left on a total strangers blog? LOL!
My sons all had the same 3rd grade teacher and they all loved her. So much so that they invited her to their HS graduation this spring. (My older sons graduated at the same time.)
Ok, I'll stop now.
How cute!
My favorite teacher was my k 4 teacher Mrs Bennett.
I teach 5 year old kindergarten now and we start back to school next week. Thanks for the give away!

My favorite was Mrs. Jones...my 5th grade teacher. The funny thing? My 15 year old son had Mrs. Bushey (the former Mrs. Jones!) as HIS 5th grade teacher 5 years ago! She had just started teaching when I was in her class, so it was great to see my son with the same teacher! I hope she stays on a few more years, I'd love my first grader to have her in 4 more years!
My favortie teacher was my third grade Mrs. Thompson. I LOVED her she had the coolest grab bag stuff and the most geometrical wood shape things, lol. I saw her not that long ago and she recognized me first and came and gave me a big hug. Im 26 now so that tells you how many years went by! She always made me feel so special! Thanks for the entry :)
Mr. Decker. He was scatter brained but nice.
My favorite teacher was my 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Alm. She let us hatch baby chickens in her class. I loved it.
My favorite teacher was Mrs Stames. She was beautiful and full of energy. After I started teaching we were sitting next to each other at an inservice and it was so sureal.
My favorite all-time teacher was my high school English teacher, Mrs. LeSage. But you asked for an elementary teacher, so, ummmmmmm. Ummmmmm, most of my elementary teachers were the stereotypical old ladies with little reading glasses who would slap your desk with the ruler as they walked around the room. But I guess I will say, Mrs. Mathis, music teacher.`
By far my favorite teacher was my kinder-first grade teacher. She "graduated" with us. About 10 years later, I ran into her at a wedding and SHE recognized ME before I did her! She truly loved, respected and cherished each child that walked through her door. She's one of the people who inspired me to teach as well.
Thanks for a great giveaway!
Ooh, I could sooo use a coffee cup cuff! So cute! Let's see...my favorite teacher was my 6th grade teacher. She was a young'un at the time and lived for teaching. She challenged me and went out of her way to give me and some others extra learning opportunities. She became a very good friend of our family!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Cute coffee cuff! My third grade teacher was my favorite...she was just so nice.

My favorite elementary school teacher was Mrs. Armstrong. She was such a wonderful lady and I still saw her years after I grew up!
My favorite teacher was my 4th grade teacher Mr. Kaye. He was really nice and we had about 10 class pets. We'd get to go to other classrooms and give reports on the animals from time to time. We got to take the Guinea Pig home for summer vacation too!
My first grade teacher was my favorite her name was Mrs. Senkiw, and we always got it mixed up and said Senkiw, Mrs. Thank you! Thanks for the chance.
My favorite teacher was my 5th grade teacher & he was male. I cant' even remember why I liked him so much, he was just a ton of fun.
My daughter just had an awesome teacher as well, very caring, lots of fun, she really made teaching fun for the kids which is what my 5th grade teacher did as well.
Unbelieveable! I have honestly been wanting a handmade "coffee cuff" (I call them Java Jackets).
My favorite teacher was in 4th grade. She was so fun, and every Friday we did some type of art project. Also in her classroom she has a big old bathtub (not hooked up to plumbing) that had pillows and stuff in it. When we finished writing a story we were allowed to sit in the bathtub and the class gathered around and listened to you read what you wrote.

My 2nd grade teacher was my favorite, Mr. Benzo.
My favorite teacher was my 3rd grade teacher who let us all learn in our own way. Maybe that's why I also became a 3rd grade teacher!
I really loved my fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Nichols. After I moved on to middle school I still went back to visit her.

My favorite teacher, Miss B is what we called her, was my favorite because she made learning fun. That and you could tell she was having fun teaching us.
I've subscribed to your feed so that I can keep up with your blog.
Thank you for this wonderful giveaway that you are participating in!
My favorite elementary school teacher gave us little prizes if we read a certain number of pages in reading books in a month. I love to read so it was great for me!
My fifth grade teacher, Mr. Schmidt, used to do the whole Mr. Rodger's thing. He'd come in singing, "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood..." and head to his chair, take of his rubber boots, hang his coat and put on a yellow sweater. He'd do this ramdomly whenever the mood struck. He was my favorite!
my favourite elementary school teacher was my Grade 2 teacher. she was truly an inspiration and so much fun. she taught even while she was fighting cancer and that is something I will never forget. her students were important to her and she loved them more than anything.

My favorite teacher was my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Daniels. She used to play guitar and we had morning singalongs where I learned lots of folk songs I've never heard. She also used to pray with us before lunch, which was probably frowned upon even back then!
Thanks!

Very cute!
I guess my favorite elementary school teacher was my 1st grade teacher, Mrs. King. The only thing I really remember is her telling my mother I was a "brilliant" student.
Thank you for hosting this giveaway.

My favorite teacher was my 4th grade teacher, Ms. Coffin. She was awesome. She always found a way to help us out and I remember that she would always help me with my bible studies and math. :)
