Substitute TeachingAfter a couple of weeks of substitute teaching, I have to give a shout out to teachers who do this every day during the school year.
I've enjoyed most of my days substituting. It really helps when you sub for a organized teacher. I've had Seniors in High School, all levels at Middle School, and 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th at the Elementary level. Next week, I'll get to experience the Kindergarten kids. Let's hope they are good, b/c I have them for 3 days straight. ha!
I've had a few students try to fake an illness or injury so they can go to the nurse's office, a.k.a. get out of class pass. e.g. Had a student say he ate his spaghetti too fast at lunch and that his tummy was hurting. SO I told him to wait it out and see what happens. Well after several attemps of asking to go to the nurse, he decided that if he spit on the floor and then raise his hand to say he threw up - that maybe I would believe him and send him to the office.
Gross, he spit on the floor and his seat, so I made him wipe it up. Sure enough, when it was time to go to recess, he was feeling all better. Nice.
