Middle School Sub Plans, Emergency Substitute Binder, 7 No Prep Activities

$5.99

It is 6 a.m. and you are not going in. These middle school sub plans are an emergency substitute binder you print once and keep ready: 30 pages with 7 no prep activities and every answer key. No prep, no screen, no slides.

Perfect For

  • A sub who does not know your class or your subject
  • Any day you are out: sick, training, a conference
  • Advisory, homeroom, and the last twenty minutes

How It Works

  1. Print it once, put it in a binder, and fill in the front pages
  2. Leave it on your desk. It is ready for any day you are out
  3. The sub picks an activity, reads the script, and runs the lesson from the printout

Why Teachers Love This Binder

  • Every activity has its own sub script with a box marked Read This Out, written to be read aloud word for word
  • Every answer is printed, so a sub with no subject knowledge is never stuck
  • Scoring is peer checked or a show of hands, so a class cannot argue the sub into a corner
  • Color and ink-saver black and white, in US Letter and A4

Here is a look at what you get:

Description

What’s Included

30 pages in every version. The sub binder pages first, then the activities.

Sub binder pages

  • A binder cover to fill in with your name, room and subject
  • An Important Information page: who to call, emergency procedures, helpful students, where things are, class routines
  • A Note to the Substitute page with the activity table
  • A Schedule of the Day: a time table with open times and editable blocks, plus every activity with its page number
  • A Lesson Plan already filled in for every activity, with short bullets and page references
  • A Class List and Dismissal sheet: 30 rows with notes, how each student gets home, and here and gone boxes
  • A How It Went slip for the sub to leave for you

The 7 activities

  • Quiet Reading (quiet single, 45 min): two original passages, one fiction and one nonfiction, with 8 questions each and full answer keys
  • Finish the Story (quiet single, 42 min): six story openers, a planning page, and a lined story page
  • Math Menu (quiet single, 45 min): three sheets students choose from, color by answer, two number mazes, and ten word problems, all with keys
  • Draw and Pass (quiet group, 33 min): telephone with pictures, in silence, with 36 starter prompts
  • Brain Teaser Tournament (group or single, 43 min): 24 riddles in three rounds with every answer on the key
  • Category Race (group, 41 min): one letter, ten categories, three minutes, peer scored so the sub never judges an answer
  • This or That Stand-Off (whole class, 42 min): 24 either-or debates decided by a head count

Written So a Sub Can Just Read It

Every activity starts with its own sub script: how to set up, a box marked Read This Out that is written to be read aloud word for word, how to run it, how long it takes, and the full answer key. A substitute never has to invent a question, judge an answer, or know your subject.

Please Note

This is a print resource. There are no slides and no editable file, so what you see in the preview is exactly what you print.
