As a substitute teacher, you will likely face the challenge of trying to implement lesson plans left by the permanent teacher that are either incomplete or outside of your area of expertise. Proficiency in the substitute teaching strategies demonstrated in the SubSkills™ Basic Online Training Course and outlined in Chapter Two of the Substitute Teacher Handbook enables you to comfortably face many of the challenges during a substitute teaching 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
