It’s the end of the year!
And though there may be teachers who you’re eager to leave, some teachers deserve extra thanks. But maybe you aren’t ready to spend money on a gift they won’t care about. So here are some great ideas for teacher gifts!
- Quote posters. Does your teacher have a signature phrase? Perhaps it’s a resounding “Make good life choices!” or “Buenos Dias!” Create a unique poster that helps celebrate what you love about a teacher.

- Video
Though labor intensive, this is a great way to show a teacher how much you care about them. Gather some friends and classmates, and sit them in front of a camera as they explain why they love the teacher. Edit the clips together with some music and photos, and you’ll have a great video to give your teacher.
- Card
A handwritten card is always a good idea. By putting down your words about how much a teacher has influenced you, you’re sure to make something that they’ll treasure forever.

As opposed to a personal card, a card signed by many students is a great way to show the teacher how many students care about them.
