Description
What is included in these Digital 6th Grade Social Studies Sub Plans?
Each lesson in these digital 6th grade social studies 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. The following topics are included:
- Ancient Egypt
- Ancient Greece
- Ancient Rome
- Historical figures: Important inventors and their inventions
- Forms of government
In addition to the 6th grade social studies lessons, the following DIGITAL student activities are also included so you won’t have to worry about the sub running out of things to do.
- Brain Breaks that can be used to help break up the dayÂ
- Art Activity to help get creative juices flowing and fill time as-needed
- Digital Notebook Template covering a topic from one of the lesson plans
- Digital BINGO Game with movable pieces! The BINGO includes content from the other lessons during the day
- Digital Educational Game with movable pieces! The educational game covers content from the other lessons from the day
- Just Add a Task Digital Board Game with movable pieces! 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.
Rest assured the day will run smoothly because we’ve got these extras to make 6th grade social studies sub-planning EASY FOR YOU!
- Teacher PDF with tips for utilizing the Google Slides documents
- Separate substitute and teacher Google Drive links for EASY assigning to studentsÂ
- Sub Planning Tips for 1:1 Classroom OR Virtual Sub Plans
- DIGITAL How Did Your Day Go? Substitute Notes Form leave this form and you’ll likely get detailed notes from your substitute!
- Print-and-Go Thank You Cards and Substitute Punch Cards make a great behavior management tool that is special for substitutes! << these printable bonuses are included in the teacher PDF file
- Answer Keys & Worksheet Guides for ALL worksheets & graphic organizers– located in the SUBSTITUTE document- so there will be no accidentally assigning students the answer key on our watch 😉Â
Plus, a bonus editable PowerPoint, which includes:
While most of the digital 6th grade social studies sub plans are ready to 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!

This resource has been a lifesaver. I use it in my emergency sub tub in the event that I will be away for an extended amount of time. I also love the seating chart resource that is in this. It helps the sub to know exactly who should be where and keeps the kiddos honest on their seating arrangements!

This bundle is a lifesaver for busy teachers or unexpected absences. The activities are well-designed for independent student use, with clear instructions and engaging topics aligned to 6th grade standards. The mix of print and digital options adds flexibility, and everything truly requires no prep. While it leans more on review than deep exploration, it’s perfect for keeping students learning with minimal stress.
