 Why Substitute TeachSubstitute teaching can be very rewarding. There are different reasons that people choose to substitute teach. Some look at it as just a job and they can make some what they view as, easy work, until they have done it for a day or two, then their opinions change. Substituting is anything but easy. Try Outs for Elementary School Plays and ProgramsSo you want to have an elementary school play, but how do you choose who gets each part. Since elementary students are quite a bit different from middle and high school students here are some ideas that you might find helpful in choosing parts. Interesting Bald Eagle FactsThe American Bald Eagle is the United States National Symbol. It was chosen as our national symbol in 1782 and was chosen over the Golden Eagle because it lives on on the North American Continent while the Golden Eagle also lives in Europe. When born it is truly an ugly duckling, but in four to five years it will turn into a beautiful bird that inspires you when you view it in flight. If you study about this beautiful bird you can learn some very interesting facts. Elementary Substitute Teaching TipsMost teachers hate getting a substitute teacher for their class because it is so much work to get prepared for the substitute. Since many districts have gone to the automated sub finder system the teacher is also never sure who will be their substitute and that worries them because the wrong substitute teacher can make more work for the regular teacher. So if you are going to substitute then you need to go in prepared to help the teacher and maintain control of the class. Credit Card Problems for First Time Site OwnersFive hours! That is how long it took me to figure out what to do with an order that I felt came from a stolen credit card. Being new to the internet business I had had very few problems with credit cards. Besides, on the site where I was selling the most items, those items cost less than $30. At thirty dollars the fraud would not have been real costly to me. Simple Red Ribbon Week IdeasOne year everyone at our school was tired of doing Red Ribbon week. They felt that they were being asked to do too many things so they sort of boycotted the whole idea. My class really wanted to do something and I did also, but I didn’t want to have to do too much because time was short. We came up with an idea that the students could help with and would take very little time. Two Easy Substitute Games for Elementary SubstitutesFour Corners is a simple game that students of all elementary school ages love to play. This is fun to play with the lights out if there is a window letting a little light into the
room. Give each corner a number one to four. One person is it. Th Animal Offsprings“Grandma what is baby cat called?” This is a question that often comes up and it is easy when it is a baby cat, but what about those other animals. Some of them can make you head for the dictionary or encyclopedia to try to find the answer. Red Ribbon Week Time to Celebrate FreedomSo many times when we celebrate Red Ribbon Week we only think about not taking drugs. Students get tired of the no, don’t do that message. They want to hear something else. Well, if you think about it this should be a week to celebrate freedom. If we don’t take drugs then we have a lot of freedoms that we can cherish. Red Ribbon Week is Almost Here, AgainSome people think that Red Ribbon Week is no longer important, but I disagree. I believe that the earlier we reach children the better. One of the best ways to reach school aged children with a message about saying no to drugs is through the use of plays or programs.
