What Sets These Plans Apart?

I designed these substitute teacher plans to provide meaningful, engaging, differentiated, and varied tasks in your absence. I wanted to provide you with print-and-go, super high-quality plans (for those days you can’t muster the energy to write sub plans) but also the ability to edit the templates and use the activities in whatever sequence works for you and your students. Your kids will absolutely love these activities, and your sub or guest teacher will appreciate the engagement and ease of use.

While there are only 5 days of written plans, there are more than enough activities to last well beyond 5 days!
