However, when I returned the next day, none of the work was completed and students told me they watched a movie. How can I ensure this doesn't happen again?                 Submit a Possible Solution Please read response(s) below (if any) before posting your solution.                 Solution 1 Posted December 9, 2020 2:51 am yZadyT Reps: 53 Maybe you could create a checklist for the sub to fill out for the day or maybe create a checklist that the children can see as well. If it continues, you might want to talk to the principal to ensure that sub does not come back to your classroom.

The teacher requesting a substitute will leave instructions and classwork work the principals secretary. She will in turn follow up with the substitute when the school day has ended o make sure the directions left by the teacher were carried out. If they were not, the substitute will be placed on a list that will not allow them to return to this school. Substitutes are there to stand in for the assigned teacher, not replace them.

The substitute may not be well equipped alone to ensure everything is taught and assigned the way it should be.
