Description

What is included in these 5th Grade Science Sub Plans?

Each lesson in the 5th grade science sub plans is simple enough for the sub to follow, but will engage your students in authentic learning …and not just busy work. Each lesson plan has a section for teacher notes at the bottom for any notes you’d like to leave for the sub (or for the sub to leave you notes!) All the graphic organizers, activities, or worksheets needed to complete every lesson are included.

  • Gravity & Weight
  • Chemical and Physical Changes
  • States of Matter
  • Earth’s Axis, Seasons, Hemispheres
  • Earth’s Systems
  • Soil & Plant Growth
 

In addition to the 5th grade science lessons, the following BONUS student activities are also included:

  • 2  Interactive Notebooks covering a topic from one of the lesson plans
  • A puzzle to go with each one of the lesson topics
  • “Just Add A Task” Board Game:  This board game is nearly ready to go! All that’s left to do is add a task- such as a spelling or vocab list or math flash cards. It can also be played just for fun without a task. Color and B&W versions included.

Extras to make 5th grade science sub planning EASY FOR YOU!

  • Copies for Students Page lists what pages need to be copied for you or your sub’s convenience
  • Organization Tips to help you organize your 5th grade science sub plans
  • Print-and-go Thank You Cards to show your appreciation for your substitute
  • How Did Your Day Go? Substitute Notes Form. Just leave this form and you’ll more than likely get detailed notes from your substitute!
  • Substitute Punch Cards make a great behavior management tool that is special for substitutes!
  • Binder Cover and Spines to get your organized
  • Answer Keys & Worksheet Guides for ALL worksheets & graphic organizers, so that your sub will know exactly what to do.
 

Plus, a bonus editable PowerPoint,  which includes:

While most of the document is print-and-go for your convenience, this bonus editable document allows you to customize your outline and information to your own class.

  • Substitute Plan Outline: A complete editable outline for your entire day! It has been filled out but you may customize it to suit your needs
  • Additional Notes for the Substitute: Any other notes you’d like to make to the substitute here in the PowerPoint since everything else is in PDF format
  • School Schedule: To make sure your sub knows when to use each lesson
  • Classroom Info Form: To give your sub the important info they need at their fingertips
  • Class List Template: EVERY sub we have talked to has told us that this is a MUST!
You will not regret your purchase of these 5th grade science sub plans! Thousands of teachers have already used and loved the time saved by using Ready To Go Sub Plans. Check out what one of them had to say:
 
“These sub plans have been the BEST discovery that I have made! Thank you for making these wonderful all-inclusive plans that are so easy to use, especially when you are sick and the last thing you want to worry about is writing sub plans!”

  33. Fabulous Fifth Fundamentals –

    This resource was phenomenal for emergency sub plans. Every year we have to submit out emergency plans which rarely get used (we normally email a teammate things to do with notes on activities, etc). I bought these to send in for my resources expecting to not get anything out of it, but they are amazing. They have step by step instructions on how to teach the content and what to do with each worksheet which is a dream. As a former sub it was a nightmare to come in to a subject you are unfamiliar with, but these walk you through each step. I have them copied and in folders for student sets and know that if I have to miss during this crazy time that my students will have on topic activities complete. Great score!
