PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Substitute teachers serve an essential role in the education system, they often feel underappreciated and even ignored. Most assignments can leave substitute teachers without a lesson plan, while students can refuse to take the substitute seriously.
There are many different factors that can make the job of a substitute teacher difficult, but ultimately the position is a rewarding one. This month let’s explore tips for preparing to present the state standards while on a substitute assignment.
- Be aware of what grade and subject you are substitute teaching on your next assignment. Make sure that you know how to locate the standards and read them.
- When implementing standard based instruction one must always communicate the assignment, rules, and procedures.
- Make sure you have thought out all material needed to present or teach an assignment. Students must have the materials needed to complete the assignment as well.
- Make sure that you understand what is the goal of the standard that’s being taught. Teaching to standards ensures that the learning process is not disrupted during a teacher absence.
- Standards based instruction maintains the learning focus of assessments and student expectations for grade level learning.
Resources
If you are a substitute who has on boarded with us in the past two years you should be utilizing your resource materials. The STEDI Substitute Handbook and TEKS Learning Resource Guide.
- Also Our states very own website for locating TEKS Curriculum Standards https://tea.texas.gov/Academics/Curriculum/
- Lead4ward is an excellent free resource for Texas teachers as well as Texas Substitute teachers. www.lead4ward.com
- Dallas ISD campuses have instructional coaches, department heads, team leads, and the teachers next door to your assigned classroom for the day.
- Also, you can use any search engine for samples of TEKs standards and TEKS based lessons.
Do not take for granted that any student can miss a day of learning. It is important that every student is exposed to learning and maximizing all learning opportunities each and every day. Even when there is a substitute in the classroom.
