Well not ready ready, like mentally ready, but physically ready, I'm set to go for subbing. Tomorrow is the first day of school for one district. They were the ones I subbed for the first day of school last year though I don't expect a repeat. Oh and I found out they are searching for a kinder teacher (my ideal job) but have to be bilingual. I speak enough, but wouldn't be able to read/write what they would want.
So my bag is stocked. Hand sanitizer, lotion, advil , and a snack for me. Mad libs, geometric coloring sheet, stickers and erasers, and a read aloud book for the kiddos. I'll have to dredge out my super cute lunch bag with polka dots and my name on it.
Guess I need to prepare going to bed early again...although I'm going camping this week lol and I already had to block myself from the call list. Now I'm getting anxious...new kinders, new teachers, but I'm armed and ready. I can do this. It's my fifth year...wow. Oh, better pack some of my sub cards too before I forget :)

Hello! I'm a substitute teacher as well, and was wondering what you meant by sub cards? It sounds like a cool idea!
ReplyDeleteMy sub cards are cards I got from Vistaprint.com and they have my name, my sub id number, my cell number and my e-mail.
ReplyDeleteIf a teacher asks for my sub number to request me, I can just hand them my card. I often leave my card on the desk with a note about the day too.
Hope that helps :)
