Description

What is included in these 4th Grade Science Sub Plans?

Each lesson in the 4th 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.

  • Weathering & Erosion
  • Geological Changes
  • Light
  • Heat Energy
  • What is force?

In addition to the 4th grade science lessons, the following is also included:

  • 2 Interactive Notebooks covering a topic from one of the lesson plans
  • A puzzle to go with each lesson
  • “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 4th 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 4th 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:

  • 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 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!”

    I was hoping for more activities that a sub can do with my students when I’m out. I do not feel comfortable allow my students to complete activities with glue and scissors when I’m out. Less movement would be best for my students. However, I can use those activities for days when I’m teaching. There were activities they could do, I just had to pull from other resources.

    • Educate & Rejuvenate –

      Hi Penny! Thanks for your purchase. Only a few activities involve cutting and gluing, and those are all shown in the preview. The description also states that there is an interactive notebook, so the resource is exactly as described. I do recommend reading the descriptions and looking over previews for the resources that you purchase. Glad you will be able to utilize all of the content, whether it’s with a sub or on your own! Have a fantastic day! -Kelsey
