8 review blocksAbout 105 minutes of seat workFits around your specials, lunch, and recess

What's included in the pack

  • A one-page note for the guest teacher: the day at a glance
  • A script for each of the 8 blocks: what to say, how to start, and what to do when a child is stuck
  • 21 worksheets: one for every block. Where a worksheet has them, there is also a page for early finishers and an easier page for children who need one
  • A form the guest teacher fills in at the end of the day
  • Class information sheets that you fill in once: class list, schedule, routines, behavior plan, who gets the easier page, and how each child goes home

The whole day in one file

One file to print ahead of time for your sub binder: the note and the scripts for the guest teacher, the forms, and every worksheet in the order of the day. Copy a class set of each page for everyone, five of each easier page, and ten of each page for early finishers.

Guest teacher pages only (PDF)

The pack, the guest teacher pages, and saved pages are included with the Teacher plan.

Your PDF is built in your browser, so it always has the newest version of every page.
