Definition: To be grateful or thankful for.

Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! You’ve got the dictionary definition – “to be grateful or thankful” - that’s a great start! But let’s dig a little deeper, shall we? “Appreciated,” you see, is more than just saying "thank you." It's about feeling the warmth within. Think of it like this: if someone does something nice for you, maybe they help you with your homework, or draw you a picture bright and new, You can say “Thank you,” that’s polite and true, But "appreciated" means you feel it too! It's recognizing the kindness, the effort, the care, Showing someone you truly value them there. It’s about understanding why something is good, And letting that feeling be understood. So, “appreciated” isn’t just a word to say, It’s a feeling of gratitude in every way! 😊 Does that make sense? Do you have any questions about how we show appreciation to others?
