How to Make a Candy Bar Story Card for a Special Teacher

How to Make a Candy Bar Story Card for a Special Teacher

Many teachers put in innumerable hours beyond their pay-grade, from grading papers to helping out with after school projects to tutoring students that need a little extra help in mastering a subject. For these special teachers, it can be a nice gesture to create a one of a kind gift to let her know that she is truly appreciated. A candy bar story card can be the perfect creative gift for students to express their feeling; they can be created with a few craft materials and, of course, the recipient's favorite candy bars.

Instructions

    1

    Create a special personalized message that best matches the reasons that you want to create the card. For example, if it is a "thank you" card for going above and beyond as a teacher, then you could use a Milky Way to write a message that says "There's not a better teacher in the entire (insert Milky Way candy bar) Galaxy. To add humor you could add a line like "We're not always (insert Sugar Babies) but you're always a great teacher."

    2

    Leave enough space to tape each of the candy bars you want to tape to your poster board card.

    3

    Allow children to add decorative elements like adding stickers to the card as a boarder or simple decoration.
