Substitute Teachers: Teaching with Vague Lesson Plans
Strategies to Consider:
If the lesson plan is vague (e.g., a lesson plan may read, “teach vocabulary,” or “do Section 2.3 in the textbook”), then refer to the information presented under the issue “Substitute teachers: Teaching without lesson plans." Depending upon how much direction the permanent teacher gives you, as well as how much time you have to plan before you need to teach the lesson, you also may want to access the resource entitled, Differentiated Instructional Strategies.
