Emergency Art Sub Plan for Kindergarten
Has this ever happened to you?
A lot of us have experienced the effects of someone else not being able to get a substitute teacher. Sometimes you inherit just a few extra kids from that class and sometimes you get the whole bunch. If you are lucky, someone tells you to expect it before they show up at the art room door. If it has never happened to you, wow, you live a charmed life!!!! It will likely happen to you at some point in time though, so best be prepared!
Mr. E, over on the blog, Art with Mr. E has written a post about just this to help you get ready for the inevitable. Click here to check it out: "50 Kindergarteners By Myself!"
If you have a coworker art teacher, please share that post with them because you might be the one who is without a sub one day and they add your classes to theirs.
