Ready to use substitute lesson plans for a complete school day! As teachers we all know the truth. It is honestly easier to go ahead and drag yourself into school when sick or cancel the long over due appointment than it is to plan for a substitute during an emergency or planned absent. As a teacher, you have an enormous amount work to do and content to cover. In addition, those of you working as subs, have the daunting responsibility of reporting into a brand new job each day without specific classroom information. These lesson plans were written for regular primary/elementary classrooms and substitute teachers. Everything is written for you! All you need to do is program (this is an electronic copy so go ahead and type before printing) the class schedule, the class procedures sheet and the content lesson time periods for your specific classroom so the sub knows when to do what. Then place the plans and a class roster in a folder on your desk. That's it! You can keep the plans on your desk for an emergency situation or use them for a scheduled absence. The only materials you need to make sure the sub and students have access to are everyday desk/tub items such as pencils, crayons, scissors, glue, writing paper, construction paper and a white board or chalkboard. So, treat yourself and enjoy your day off! You can pick and choose which lessons to include in your substitute folder for the day. This second grade level kit contains: The programmable information sheets, programmable class schedule, 45-60 minute reading lesson (fairy tale read aloud, phonics, story extension), 45-60 minute math lesson (creating/solving number stories), 30-45 minute writing lesson (favorite healthy food story), 30 minute spelling lesson (spelling game), 30 minute science lesson (how germs are passed), 30 minute social studies lesson (being president), 30 minute art lesson (primary colors), and 30 minute extension lesson (class cheer). The lessons are designed to be presented in a way consistent to the standard cycle of instruction. First grade day 1, first grade day 2, third grade and K-3 Spanish substitute lesson plans are also available on TpT.

Great emergency plans. Love that most of the needed materials are readily available and don't need to be prepped!

The plans seemed to be exaxtly what I needed. However, after I downloaded the materials and typed in my specific details, the page breaks were completely out of line. So I couldn't use the plans; I couldn't find a way to make the breaks realign. Since I was pressed for time, I tried cutting and pasting the printed pages, but they were a mess. I gave up and wrote the plans by hand. I'll try to use the template again if you can clarify how to keep the worksheet page breaks in order.

I bought these lesson plans last year and never had to use them... until last week! They were a lifesaver to have on hand. I like the fact that they did not require a lot of prep work for a substitute teacher. Thanks!
