My first day of subbing and I was sooo nervous! Although I thought it would be an easy day because it was only a half day and I was supposed to be working in the office. Good thing I am flexible! I was asked to work in the SIP room. This is the student intervention program room for students with severe mental disturbances or behavior problems. To add to this new experience they were having issues in the office because of the system getting me a copy of the lesson plans. So for the first hour or so of the day I was left with no idea what to do or when to do it. I made it through advisory with no problems. It was supposed to be my prep after but one student refused to go to his next class and two others wanted to come back so I made them get notes. I found out as soon as I got the sub notes that I was not supposed to have anyone in the room with me during prep, oops! It was stressful but I survived. It could have been a million times worse. I left that day feeling like I could survive ANY sub job!
Today I decided to try subbing again. I chose 6th grade this time and a full day position. It was their jog-a-thon day so it was supposed to be easy. Today was so much fun!!! The class was extremely respectful of me and they helped me with everything I didn't know about. I had such a great day! I don't think the two days could have been any more different! I am so excited now to get into a classroom again that I signed up for another sub job on Tuesday as soon as I got home. I can't wait! All of my fears are gone :)
