[quote=Anonymous]Current sub chiming in about leaving instructions in SmartFind and Special Ed classes.  I always try to take resource or special ed positions because I feel these teachers / IAs need time off the same as anyone but it's a lot harder to find subs willing to take the day for them.  If I am a Spec Ed teacher there is always an IA in the class and I usually defer to them on schedule, behaviors, etc.  They know the kids and the routine, I'm just the warm body in there to keep the day going as smoothly as possible.  As for instructions, I am hesitant to accept jobs that don't have at least an age range or basic description of the job requirements because I don't want to walk into a situation that blindsides me.  Not good for anyone but it's amazing how many teachers/IAs don't include anything in their sub request.  I am also a "go to" for a local elementary and those teachers text me directly for jobs before they submit into the formal system.  I wish teachers were more attuned to how subs can help them.[/quote]
