We can't always be the adult at the front of the room, but how we get ready for somebody else to step in for us can take a lot of stress off of all parties involved. I've collected informed from subs from around my rural northern area to get their feedback on what they like to see and don't like to see in sub plans. I have also collected a number of sub plans from teachers across my area to build a sharing registry of what other professionals do across a range of ages and subjects. Lets get together and share some experiences, best practices, and examine common pitfalls of how we prepare for not being the teacher at the front of the room for a day.
