Invariably, a substitute teacher is faced with the challenge of trying to implement lesson plans left by the permanent teacher that are either incomplete or outside the substitute’s area of expertise. Proficiency in the teaching strategies demonstrated on the SubInstructor and outlined in chapter two of the Substitute Teacher Handbook enables a substitute teacher to bravely face many of the challenges s/he may face during an assignment. Strategies for presenting the permanent teacher’s lesson plans include:

• Brainstorming
• Concept Mapping
• K-W-L
• Cooperative Learning
• Questioning
• Effective Implementation of Audio Visual Materials
