Description

The May ELA sub plans with spring activities for 3rd & 4th grade include:

“May ELA Sub Plans” Binder Cover
  • This adorable cover can be at the front of your folder or binder! Not pictured in the preview, but included in the download. 🙂
Table of Contents
  • A list of everything that is included in the May sub plans with spring activities for 3rd & 4th grade!
Note to Teacher
  • This note to YOU explains what you need to do to get the sub plans ready. Basically, you just need to print, copy, etc!
Thank You Notes to your Substitute(s)
  • These print-and-go thank-you notes are spring-themed! They are a half page so you can save on paper and ink.
“How Did Your Day Go?” Substitute Notes Form
  • This substitute notes form gives your sub a space to write students who did well, those who struggled, what they didn’t get to, and any additional notes. Perfect to be sure you know just how the day went. It also includes a fun spring theme!
Spring Themed Substitute Punch Cards
  • These punch cards make a great behavior incentive for JUST when there is a sub- a.k.a. when students may need a little more help! 😉 These will do the trick!
Copies for Students List
  • A clear layout of what you, a staff member, or the sub will need to copy for the students for the entire day
ELA May Lesson Plan Checklist
  • This is where you let the sub know which lessons to use for the day. You can check a box to let them know to use ALL the lessons for a full day of plans, OR you can check individual lessons you would like used during your ELA block.
ELA Lesson #1: May Fill-In-The-Blanks

Reading Lesson to use with ANY Book!

WHAT HAVE PEOPLE SAID ABOUT MY SUB PLANS PREVIOUSLY?  
 
“These sub plans have been the BEST discovery I have made on TPT! Thank you for making these wonderful and all-inclusive plans that are so easy to use, especially when you are sick and the last thing you want to do is write sub plans!”
 
“I have purchased several sets of emergency sub plans, and they just never fit my needs. These, however, are just what I’ve been looking for! Easy prep, easy for the sub to follow! I recommend this to anyone needing emergency plans.”
 
“These are fantastic! I purchased, copied, and stored it in a sub tub. I told a neighbor where the tub was and all she did was put my tub on my desk and the day ran SO SMOOTHLY!”
 
DON’T STRESS ABOUT WRITING SUB PLANS ALL YEAR LONG! Remember, you can grab this set of sub plans in my An Entire Year of ELA Sub Plans for 3rd, 4th, and 5th Grades- THE BIG BUNDLE and get this set, plus the full year!
