Guest Teaching Experiences

My oh my, was I as precocious as some students are these days? I have lately been a guest teacher at schools in the Eagle County School District. I wouldn't treat any guest the way they often treat me. Suffice it to say, subbing is hard! God bless the teachers who do this every day.

Continuing, because of the size of Battle Mountain High School and in turn the amount of teachers employed, it is quite frequent that they need subs. So I often go to that school. There are pluses and minuses to subbing in high school and I am contemplating subbing more in the lower grades where there is a little more respect.

At the high school level, most of the teachers have a free period as their planning period. So it's quite nice to kick back and get paid during their planning time. Generally as a high school sub you also really aren't teaching. Well, at least I hope I'm not required to teach Physics, am I? Every now and again, there will be subject matter I see the students working on which I don't remember quite well. And that is the good thing, I am not expected to teach, I'm just a warm body. All in all, I just ask them to do according to the plans and then fight them tooth and nail for them to do it.
