Looking for a good gift for a brand new teacher?

Question:My friend is starting a new teaching job. I'd like to get her a gift but something thoughtful and well...perfect for her. Ideas?

Answers:
The best book I ever got was by Henry Wong,
"The First Days Of School: How To Be An Effective Teacher"
It's very realistic and honest.

Also PENS and overhead Pens.

Also it isn't the beginning of the year that will be the issue. Come winter time, when morale is LOW, take her out to out to dinner. That's really when she will need it. Now She's nervous and excited, once that wears away, the pressures and reality will set it. That's when she will need a gift.
Stationary, she'll have to love it ;)
A gift cert. at Staples or Office Depot would be appreciated. She could buy any supplies she needs there.
what do you think book shes like ? give her a book
