Description

Dread being out due to the thought of making sub plans? In this episode, I give you effective sub plans that allow for a seamless transition for students and guest teachers. I share my approach to creating emergency sub plans with accessible templates and engaging activities for kindergarten. Key topics include detailed instructions, respectful language for "guest teachers," and proactive communication with students and parents to reduce anxiety. This episode offers practical strategies for teachers to enhance their substitute planning, ensuring a smooth classroom experience during absences. 

In this episode I share:

  • Go-to activities for substitutes
  • The sub tub strategy
  • Language matters
  • Preparing students for guest teachers
