  • I'm finally back to work! As schools open up again, I am so so SO excited to get back into the classroom to substitute teach. I'm working towards getting my Masters in Elementary Education and my teaching certificate so subbing has been an amazing experience in the meantime! Here's what I absolutely cannot live without when I'm heading to a subbing job. I'm happy to say that I've never found myself in a situation where I really needed something and didn't have it with me!
    NOTE: I forgot to mention masks because I always keep these in my car, but I always take a mask with me to school now as they are required!

    This video was helpful especially the information on introduction and expectations. I’ve watched several of these packing videos or substitutes first day. None of them have really mentioned how they introduced themself and specific expectations. I really like the overall class prizes versus individual prizes. Thank you!

    Love this. I'm planning to become a sub and have been making a list of items I want to have on hand. One thing is, I want to make separate go to boxes to change out, depending on what grade I'm assigned to. I'm honestly excited at the idea of becoming a sub and doing that while I am going to school for my bachelors degree.

I have been considering pursuing a teaching degree as a second career. Can you do a video on why and how you got into teaching? I am just curious about peoples journeys into teaching if it was not their first choice. Love your channel!!

    Thank you so much. I started subbing at my daughter's school! You gave awesome helpful tips, That will definitely help me. I sub for a second grade class the other day and wish I had the goodies because I had 4 boys that would not stop talking to each other or telling on each other. Plus when they were to get on the iPads. I caught them looking up fortnight or car pictures. My mom mode almost kicked in lol. So hopefully the next time I sub for that class I will be prepared better 😆

  • @amberrexford1004
    @amberrexford1004 3 роки тому +3

    I really like your folder for emergency sub plans. 1 question about it though. Do you just have 1 copy of every activity and then when you get to the school and realize you are going to need to use one of them then you use the schools copier to make copies for every student?

    • @HannahAlonzo
      @HannahAlonzo  3 роки тому +2

      I had full class sets of copies made and I would only take the activities/worksheets that applied to the grade level I was teaching that day and left the rest at home. Only taking one could be a good idea though depending on how early you get there and if you know your way around the school! In my district, they only allow subs to come 20 mins early (really inconvenient in my opinion) so I always brought my own copies so I wasn’t scrambling last minute running around trying to find a copier.

    • @HannahAlonzo
      @HannahAlonzo  3 роки тому +1

      I meant that if worst comes to worst and the teacher doesn’t leave sub plans, you can give high school students the class period to catch up on homework or do work for other classes. You can tell them “use this time as a study hall period and work on whatever you need to get done”. Whereas if you tell elementary students that, they will just hear “do whatever you want” and chaos will ensue 😅

    As a former substitute, great job, but don't just do study hall if you don't have plans. You need to call the principal and let him/her know and they will tell you what to do.

    • @tinad8041
      @tinad8041 2 роки тому

      It depends on where you're located! In my area, they have a "non certified supply list" that they call from if they can't find a certified teacher. You need a bachelor's degree and some relevant experience working with children (in my case, I volunteered at the school prior, plus I teach ESL online to young children). Also a recent police check. I talked to the principal of the school directly (my children's school) and had an interview.
