Being organized and prepared for whatever may come my way is pretty important to me. If you're anything like me, you think you've got it all together and ready to teach tomorrow's lesson, until the WORST THING POSSIBLE HAPPENS....your child wakes up in the middle of the night SICK!
At my house, since my husband and I are both teachers, as soon as we clean up the vomit from the carpet, the clothes, the bed-sheets, the walls, etc... we immediately start discussing who can take off the next day to stay home with the sick child. My husband usually loses that battle after I explain that there's no way a sub could teach this rockin' lesson I have planned or conduct the dangerous lab with chemicals... I mean, really?!?!? Can you imagine what would happen if I wasn't there?
But on those rare occasions, I lose the battle and go into panic mode at 3 a.m. I rush up to the school in my pajamas, (yes, I've done it. The night janitor has seen things I'm sure he'd like to block out of his memory) and start gathering up everything my sub will need. I type up detailed directions, I try to think of everything the sub will need to know to make things run as smoothly as possible.
But wouldn't things be that much easier if most of the work was done in advance? Yes! That's where the EDITABLE Sub Binder comes in. I just finished creating it and have posted it in my TPT store at a 50% discount for a short time.
The idea is to have the binder assembled with everything the sub may need to know, so that you can take a day off at a moments notice. You could include a generic emergency sub lesson plan or quickly type up the specific lesson plan you need when the time comes. But you won't have to think of all of the tiny details that a sub needs to know at 3 a.m. This information will already be included in your sub binder.

Wow great post. Prepartion is main and important for growth their marks in exam. The scholarship essay writing service is also promote their writing skill by the way of proving the writing document.
ReplyDeleteI think this idea is absolutely wonderful. At my high school our principal had us put together 10 emergency lesson plans in the first month of school. When I sat down to do them, I felt overwhelmed. I was trying to remember all I would need for all of them. What will I set up? How diverse can I make them? How much do I need to have in them? I remember just sitting at the computer, staring at it. I was having a brain block.
ReplyDeleteI did turn in something. I feel as though it was the worse work in my life. I had two pages of generic lesson plans. A video here and there, and a worksheet packet somewhere in between on those sheets. I wish I had this idea in August to help me better plan in advance. It is extremely organized and has everything you would need right in front of you. How easy and efficient! I know next August I will be purchasing a packet and spreading the word for others to get them one too. It makes the process of planning easier. Thank you!
