Teaching tips

  • Fill in all bracketed placeholders ([season], [subject], [teacher's name], [number], [email address]) before printing or sending, since they are left blank in the template

  • Personalize the specific student contributions mentioned (helping erase the board, collecting papers) to reflect your own class rather than leaving the generic examples

  • Coordinate with the substitute teacher before sending so the contact email included is accurate and current
