Teacher Appreciation Week may fall on the first full week of May each year, but basically anyone will agree that teachers deserve love all year long. After all, teachers are true superheroes, juggling classrooms full of kiddos and shaping the minds of future generations!
When it comes to letting the educators in your life know how much you value their hard work, you truly can’t go wrong with a teacher appreciation Greeting Card. Whether you’re sharing a silly or sincere note, sending a card is a sweet and heartfelt gesture certain to make their day.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through a few ways to make your teacher appreciation cards awesome. And while we won’t be quizzing you on this material, we highly suggest you jot down a few notes anyway because these tips are A+!
Write something that lets them know just how grateful you are for all they do! Whether you’re a student writing directly to your own teacher or a parent writing on behalf of your little one, adding a few words expressing your thanks is a great way to communicate that their work has impacted you and/or your kiddos.
Examples:
A little nod to their discipline is always a good idea! There are plenty of puns for every academic subject, so don’t be afraid to sprinkle a clever little message into your note.
Examples:
One of the best signs of a successful card is its ability to bring a smile to someone’s face! In addition to expressing your thanks to your teacher, adding some humor can help brighten their day.
Examples:
Sometimes, the words you’re trying to find have already been said by someone else! Consider including a meaningful quote in your teacher appreciation card to emphasize your gratitude for your educators. Coupled with a personal note written by you, you’ll be on track to seriously make their day!
Examples:
Of course, something personal is always a great choice. Remind them of a funny moment from the school year or a time when their hard work really impacted their students. There are so many wonderful moments to look back on and your recipient will love the opportunity to reminisce!

Evite SignUp Sheets offers parents, teachers and event planners customizable online forms that organizers and volunteers can access and update effortlessly. Volunteers can choose their preferred time slots, sign up for tasks or indicate what they'll bring to the event. It only takes organizers a few minutes to create a signup sheet and send it out with a shareable link, so they can get the word out via text, email or social media—whichever way they prefer!

Creating a signup sheet has never been easier than with Evite! Here’s how to create a sheet that’s sure to make your event an absolute success:
When it comes to signup sheet information, there are some essentials to include regardless of what you’re organizing:
When adding your slot information, clearly define what people are signing up for, especially for a what-to-bring list or role assignments. If you want someone to bring healthy snacks for kids to enjoy after a game, specify that. You want your volunteers to feel confident in what they’re bringing and to make it easy for them to know what’s expected of them. It will save them time and stress (and you, too!). That being said, if you make your ask too specific (for example, asking for a hard-to-source item or something expensive), you may not end up with a volunteer for it. So be clear about what you expect, but also be reasonable!
Aside from providing the basic signup information, you can also add optional descriptions to both your entire signup sheet and individual slots. While not required, they can help guide your volunteers further and provide more information. You can add information about allergies, preferences and general info about the event. You can also add a wish list to make it easier for your volunteers to bring exactly what you need!
Signup sheet templates offer a ton of advantages for both organizers and volunteers and with Evite SignUp Sheets, you'll enjoy even more benefits than other digital and paper signup sheets! Some benefits our signup sheet templates offer include:
