Anyway, it got me thinking that it would be nice to leave my sub a little something to say thanks. I posted my idea on our Instagram (@whattheteacherwants) and many of you said you'd love to have this in your classroom. So...here ya go!
Aside from a pack of gum or maybe even some mint chapstick, I give my substitute another gift...DETAILED lesson plans, schedule, notes, organized substitute binder, etc. YAY!
And to get you organized... I have this little guy for ya. :)

We had such WONDERFUL substitutes at my last school! I would've loved to leave a small token of appreciation, if I thought about it. Great idea! :)

I subbed for two years while I waited and looked for a full time teaching job. It meant so much when teachers would write a note of encouragement to go with their plans- and even more when they would take the time to send an email after I was there thanking me and letting me know that my job was appreciated. Subbing is a hard job- not knowing where you'll be or what you'll be doing every day and often subs aren't treated very well by teachers in the building. Thank you for recognizing the job they do and encouraging others to do the same!
I subbed for 6 months before snagging a teaching job and it IS hard work! I ALWAYS leave specific plans for my peace of mind and theirs. Thanks for this. It will add the perfect touch.
