Teacher Trophy Craft
Everyone remembers the brilliant teachers that they’ve had and as a parent you’ll know what a a difference it can make to your child when they have a great teacher. I certainly know with my own children how much difference a great teacher can make to their school year.
This printable teacher craft is a great way to show that you think they’re number one and in our teacher trophy craft template you’ll find three phrases to choose from that you can add to your trophy; ‘World’s Best Teacher’, ‘#1 Teacher’ and ‘Best Teacher Ever’. All you need to do is choose which one you want to use.
This craft is low mess, low prep and as the trophy craft template is free it’s low cost too as it only uses the most basic craft materials which are ones you probably already own.
It’s ideal for making at home or in classrooms as a Teacher Appreciation Week craft or as an end of the school year activity.
Supplies Needed for This Teacher Craft

How To Make Your Teacher Appreciation Craft for Kids
Start by printing your PDF file. If you are making this as a cut and paste craft then you might want to use cardstock to make sure that your trophy is sturdy (you don’t want it to tear before you give it to your teacher!) If you will be using this to make a teacher appreciation card then I would print it onto normal white printer paper instead.
Color in all the parts of the trophy including the cup, base and handles. You only need to color in the wording option that you’ll be using.
Don’t forget to write on the plaque who the trophy is to and from.
Cut all of the parts out using scissors. You’ll find a dotted line around each part to help guide you.
Glue the base block onto the base plate and then stick the main cup onto this.
Stick the trophy handles onto the back of the cup so that they stick out from each side and then glue on your trophy plaque and choice of words. Don’t forget that you can also add the star shapes if you wish.
If you’d like to turn this into a teacher appreciation card then simply fold a piece of colored cardstock in half and glue your finished cut and paste trophy onto the front of it. Make sure to write a note to your teacher inside the finished card.
