What would be a really nice, original gift for a junior high band teacher, male, who likes clarinet?

Sheet music of someone he likes Or have each student buy one song and then make an album out of them for him with a note and picture from each student saying why they enjoyed his class or what they learned

Depends on what he likes. For example:\n\nIpod\nClothes\nA camera cell phone\n\nIf he likes personal things, give him a pen, like a Mont Blanc

If the gift in question is truly sincere and comes from your heart then go with that. A new regulation football, or a signed one by his fav player, a nice smelling cologne that he likes, clothing that he has interest in, mp3 player, and/or just about anything that he has mentioned that he has a fondness for. If you know him that well you will come to realize these things.\nGood luck and good shopping.\n\n\nps: Take him shopping with you and see what interests him and what stores he frequents. he will eventually and unknowingly show you what he likes or wants.

OK, since we don't know how special you two are to each other, I am going to offer something pretty safe. Go to his favorite music store and get him a gift certificate. Put it in a great card. Now if you want to deliver that card scantily dressed with something else on your mind, fine, but at least let him pick out his own jams.

it depends what the guy is into.\nI just went to a graduation party and gave my friend Michael cash because he was going to Vegas.   If he were not going to Vegas, I was going to give him tickets to a local concert or a gift certificate to his favorite electronics store.\n\nIf he's into music, an iPod is cool, or if he has that, then iTunes gift card to download more music.\n\nIf he's a High School grad, and you know his new college, then a sweatshirt or something from that new college.\n\nOr, be real cute and get a piggy bank, add a bunch of spare change and say "Party fund"

buy a t shirt or cd of music he likes, or even better an ipod so he can put music on it that he wants... or go to walmart and look in the craft section... since its winter, buy about 3 yards of fleece with a religious print on it and cut the ends and tie them into knots.... \n\n like this:   http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/diy_kits/article/0,2019,DIY_13787_2276464,00.html\n\n\nyou dont have to use a cutting mat though you can just use scissors but make sure you measure right...\n\n\nmake it reversable...oneside can be basket ball, one side religious...\n\n\nand it will be more special because you made it! :)

I would say something for the school would be good. Something decorative, like a small statue or a poster that would go with the school decorations. Either that, or if you know there's something he needs, that's okay. If you know something about his extra-martial arts life, you could get him something for that. But if you try to get him something Martial Arts related just for him, he's either already going to have it or he's not going to need it. All in all, I don't know that I like the idea though. As a Martial Arts teacher myself, I like to give out gift certificates to my students to give away as presents, but I don't expect presents from them, and I don't have a Christmas party for exactly that reason.

The suggestions that are here are great ones.\n\nI'd like to add the following:\n\n--- Season tickets to a favorite sporting team.\n\n--- Gift card to music store\n\n--- Leather Jacket\n\n--- Get a free pass to a good movie theater....say 20 movies or whatever you deem appropriate.\n\n--- Good set of headphones\n\n--- Does he have a car? Is it a decent car? How about going some place that details cars and arrange to have his done....inside and out.\n\n--- How about some kind of gift certificate at his favorite pizza place?\n\n--- How about tickets to a good amusement park, or water park?\n\n--- A new suit? \n\n--- New shoes?\n\nThose are just a few thoughts. I know some of those are pricey, but I'm just throwing ideas at you.\n\nAnd while you're at it.....I'm a large.\n\n;)

Get him a movie he likes and wrap it in red paper plus one of those heart candy boxes (bfs eat candy) and a card.  Depends on how much money you have.  A red or maroon or dark sweater or tee shirt would be good if he wears that color.  Maybe even some concert tickets for his favorite band, depending on how much you want to spend.  Or do like I did and make up a basket of stuff (could be a lot of low cost or high cost stuff)  and wrap it in red cellophane (any party store or big drug store has the red cellophane now).

If you're a teacher - \nMy cooperating teacher gave me things I could use in my classroom such as an apple shaped timer, reward stickers, a please sign and return stamp, etc. You could get her things like that. I know I really appreciated it.\n\nIf you're a student- \n\nShe'll love if you make her a card and write something sweet in it, what you liked best that she did, etc.

People who are good at teaching usually care a great deal about it.  I'm betting that the two things that would bring her the most pleasure are:\n1) to know you are going to be the same kind of teacher she is; and \n2) to know you'll remember her as someone who formed you to the teacher you're becoming.\n\nSo the question is, how do you pack that in gift wrap?  Some ideas:\n--have something made that she can keep on her desk or in her office, to remind her that you think she's great.  A silver star engraved with a personal thankyou.  A desk nameplate engraved with her favorite saying (my favorite teacher's saying was "look for the entertainment value!" which got me through a lot of tough times.) Maybe get a good photo of her and have an artist turn it into a pastel or drawing of her, and sign it with an affectionate thank-you.\n--Write her a letter, (on paper, in handwriting!) to thank her.  Give at least two concrete examples of what makes her an outstanding teacher and how that helped you or formed your values or your skills.\n--Find a way to honor her publicly.  Write a letter to the Dean of Faculty or to the local newspaper, describing what she does and what value it has to their community and to the world--a generation of better teachers is a fantastic gift to the world.  Have a party for a few of her students, present and past, who feel as you do, to honor her.\n\nTeachers live for the priceless moments when they are reminded that despite the grind of the daily work, they really are changing the world.  You can give her one of those moments.  Lucky you!

you should make something handmade. like you can make a scrapbook of him over the years, if he's going to college or not. or you can make like little anklets for each of you so it'll be special for him

Photo albums engraved with their last name or initials on the cover, those are nice.  Or how about some nice silver photo frames in 5 x 7 and 8 x 10 sizes?  My other idea is to think of something that they both enjoy doing together (for example, camping, tennis, etc) and get them something that involves that.  If they both like the outdoors you could get them a BBQ grill set.

Sports items, music is always great so CD's are nice ,a nice gold or silver chain (depending on there taste) Depending on your price range a leather jacket would be great or maybe some tools.
