[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question, as someone interested in becoming a sub: what are sub plans like? Are they very simple, like, "turn on a vaguely educational video for the period"? Do they get more complex for long term subs? Like, "teach the kids how to factor polynomials," and then cross your fingers and hope your sub actually has some competence in mathematics? My main memory of subs in my own school days were mostly the former ("watch a video" days) but I did have one excellent sub for comp sci. Heck, he was even better than the actual teacher.[/quote] For elementary school, you will be legit teaching, in my experience. Though for math, there is often a video you can play for the main lesson. In MS and HS, I think it’s often just kids doing an assignment independently. [/quote]
