Sub Behavior Reflection
As a middle school teacher, I used to dread taking days off. After continuously getting reports of bad/disrespectful behavior from substitutes, I knew I had to do something. I came up with a letter writing assignment. Students reflect on the previous day(s) by writing letters to the substitute, their parents/guardians, and my building principal.

Correct answers auto-populate certain colors to be filled in on the picture side. The Google Sheet is very easy to use and will be fun for all!

Experience

Teaching style
In my classroom, I focus on leading students through independent/group learning. Since I teach middle level, I focus on guided independence to help my kids transition from elementary to high school. I like students to work together using project-based learning. I do more "floating" than lecturing. My classes have a wide variety of ability levels, so I feel I can reach more students by purposeful wandering.
