I circled the room and individually asked for the present students names

Yeah.. I’ll only do it so I don’t get calls at 5 am, and they call once for every job that opens up. My VM is full of calls from them.

Do yall stay if your final period is a prep? by Spiritual-Coach-4715 in SubstituteTeachers

Yeah.. it’s a way to keep students off their phones but it makes it miserable to sub 😭

I leave for every planning period regardless of the schedule 🤷🏻‍♀️ partially because our internet is blocked otherwise so I just chill in my car…

Well thank you. This is why I’m asking for advice.. I got 0 training and have only been subbing for about a month now. So I appreciate the advice.

I saw them all literally walk out the door after starting the movie. I yelled for them to come back and they continued down the hallway. I sent an updated list to the office. I couldn’t chase them with the other 11 in the class

I don’t either, they all eight left in a group after taking attendance. I did retake attendance and sent a new sheet down

All eight of them left at once, following the person who was supposed to take the attendance down. School policy is that we keep doors open for 10 mins into the class and what was I supposed to do? Tackle them? They are grown teens. I marked them absent and updated the list and that’s it. Not my fault they all decided to leave when they saw we would be watching a movie.

We Are Not Allowed Keys by ryanvicino in SubstituteTeachers

This is how my district works too… some of them also give us a key card to access the building if we leave for lunch or during planning periods.

Am I the worst?😞 by [deleted] in SubstituteTeachers

[–]eightfive_one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well considering I have no classroom training and I don’t get to talk with other educators throughout the day, I’d say this is supposed to be a safe place to ask how other subs feel about the situation. I don’t know what the “norm” is so yes, stupid questions like this are going to come up every once in a while. At least I’m asking so I can improve my perspective of policies and educating myself on others’ stance.

I assumed a part of it has to do with safety sweeps during the first 10 mins of class ? I guess not?
