EMERGENCY SUB PLANS FOR THE ELA CLASSROOM

These 5 emergency sub plans will reduce your worry and stress from having to be away from your students. All instructions are on the printouts. It's not always easy or possible for a substitute teacher to carry on with the regular curriculum, but with these emergency plans, all the substitute teacher has to do is disseminate the copies.

*These 5 activities also make a great addition to your literacy centers.*
