Gather the class together and ask if there are any questions or clarifications needed regarding the day's activities or the assignments. Remind students of any homework or upcoming tests as noted by the regular teacher. Ensure that the classroom is tidy before the students leave and collect any completed assignments to hand over to the regular teacher.
VIII. Additional Notes for the Substitute Teacher
If time allows, you may engage the students in a brief review session or an educational game related to the topic. Be sure to follow any specific instructions left by the regular teacher and reach out to other teachers or the school administration if you encounter any issues or need additional support.
