A Clever Back-to-School Printable Idea
Here’s a creative twist on a reader favorite: the Birthday Party Invitations page at ActivitiesForKids.com isn’t just for birthdays! Teachers can repurpose it for the start of the school year to create Back-to-School printables, including teacher contact cards or parent information request cards.
Teachers can use the Activities For Kids invitation page for Back to School Printable pages including Teacher contact information or to request information from parents.
Creating the Information Cards
- Start Here: Head over to the Birthday Party Invitations page and follow the simple step-by-step instructions. In just minutes, you’ll have personalized cards ready to print.
- Custom Text: Each card can hold up to five lines of text. To make fill-in-the-blank sections, simply use the underscore key (shift + dash).
- Design Options: Choose one of the classroom-themed images for the top of your card, then pick a coordinating border and text color.
- Printing: Each sheet prints three cards that can be cut apart. Print as many as you need for your entire class.
What to Include on the Teacher Information Cards
Your card can be as simple or detailed as you like—think “business card” but for the classroom. Consider adding:
- Teacher’s name, phone number, and email (school or personal).
- School name, address, and classroom number.
- Office hours or times you’re available.
- Website links used for homework or school updates.
What to Request on Parent Information Cards
If you’re collecting details from parents, you might ask for:
- Student’s name (and nickname, if used).
- Parent/guardian’s name(s).
- Home or cell phone number.
- Special notes: allergies, medical concerns, or learning needs.
