Bring a school themed potted plant to brighten up the classroom for Teacher Appreciation week this year and show your child’s teacher how much you appreciate their hard work.

Things you’ll need:
Tall flowerpot
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Pencils (lots!)
Ribbon
Scissors

Things to do:
1. Working one pencil at a time, apply a bead of glue down the length of the pencil on the face that is printed.

2. Press the pencil against the side of the flowerpot firmly, eraser side up. Use the flat surface of your table as a guide to keep the erasers at an even level.

3. Continue to glue pencils onto the flowerpot until the entire surface is covered. Allow the glue to harden and cure before tie a ribbon around the pot, finishing with a bow.
