THE SUBSTITUTE: A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR THE INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED OR
UNMOTIVATED TEACHER was born from necessity. Like me, if you are ever
in a situation where you are expected to "entertain" a room full of:
* high school students,
* ESL students or even,
* Corporate trainees, THIS IS A BOOK FOR YOU!
THE SUBSTITUTE is a priceless collection of proven tips, tools and
techniques to turn you into a SUPER-SUB ... especially if your
teaching career has just begun!
_I WAS EDUCATED TO BE A TEACHER_, but the one thing they forget to
teach us was what happens when the teacher you are replacing has left
you WITHOUT ANY MATERIAL TO WORK WITH. If you are an experienced
substitute teacher, you can cope. As a new substitute teacher, the
potential to be lost is obvious.
Discover PROVEN, TRIED and TESTED techniques that will make your most
difficult days easier to deal with, so you can concentrate on moving
forward to becoming a GREAT TEACHER that all of our school systems
need!
DISCOVER THE SECRET OF HOW TO GET CALL BACKS FROM THE TEACHERS YOU
SUB FOR...
* From that first day, I realized that I would never enter a
classroom without being fully prepared.
* I decided to gather as many fun activities as I could and never
look back.
* I realized that my REPUTATION AS A SUB grew because of the fun the
students were having in my class.
* I understood that if my classes were interesting and different, I
would get more substitute calls from teachers because the KIDS
recommended me!
* If you are a teacher looking for a JOB, you understand how
difficult it is. If you can impress the students, you are more likely
to get numerous sub jobs, which will lead to a PERMANENT POSITION.
Why am I telling you all this?
Simple. I am the LIVING PROOF that this stuff actually works under
the most unusual, stressful and demanding classroom circumstances.
EVERY ACTIVITY IN _THE SUBSTITUTE_ WORKS. I tested each one before
putting them in my book and know that if you are in a pinch, you can
always rely on one to get you through to the next class!!
Listen to what others say about The Substitute: A Survival Guide for
the Inexperienced, Unprepared or Unmotivated Teacher...
"A wonderful resource! The Substitute would be a welcome addition to
any school library. Visiting substitute teachers as well as full time
teachers could utilize these entertaining activities!" Teachers, from
all areas of studies, with years of experience to those just starting
in the profession would benefit from this great resource.

"Why didn't I think of that?"
That's the response most great ideas receive. Simple splashes of
brilliance such as suspenders, seatbelts, and the spork all became
painfully obvious only after they were discovered. Well, you can add
one more entry to the list of overlooked genius: THE SUBSTITUTE: A
SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR THE INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED OR UNMOTIVATED
TEACHER.
Why hasn't anyone ever compiled a series of easy, entertaining, and
insightful exercises to help substitute teachers - or any public
speakers, for that matter - get themselves established?
It seems that there is this philosophy of 'trial by fire' within the
teaching industry.
Author Jason Day wanted to stop the pain.
Having been a substitute teacher himself, Jason knew just how
ill-equipped substitutes can be. So he took it upon himself to equip
them. The result came in the form of THE SUBSTITUTE: A SURVIVAL GUIDE
FOR THE INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED OR UNMOTIVATED TEACHER. This
easy-to-use, entertaining, and innovative handbook has truly become
one of those "Why didn't I think of that?" flashes of brilliance. As
creative as the spork, as life-saving as a seatbelt, and as capable of
sparing you from embarrassment as a pair of suspenders, THE
SUBSTITUTE: A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR THE INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED OR
UNMOTIVATED TEACHER has definitely earned a spot on the list of
overlooked genius.

of my teaching qualifications:

Why the Title?
Good question! Some people think that the title of my book is a little
negative, or gives the wrong kind of message with regards to education
and our teachers. My thoughts are the total opposite! I only speak the
truth. We teachers are human too!
* When I first started subbing, I was obviously INEXPERIENCED. If I
had my book then, my job would have been a lot easier!
* Let's be honest...sometimes regular teachers are UNPREPARED to be
away for a day...because who really plans for a sick day during the
week! Substitute teachers typically get the call for a job in the
morning hours the same day that they are expected to teach. Sometimes
that sub is unprepared!
* Finally, the _UNMOTIVATED_ part came from the feeling I got after
being "beat up" emotionally from subbing in some very difficult
classes. Subbing is an extremely difficult job, and if you are not
ready for some "bad" days, then you are getting into the wrong
profession. Sometimes you will be unmotivated to give each class your
best. Always know that The Substitute: A SURVIVAL GUIDE FOR THE
INEXPERIENCED, UNPREPARED OR UNMOTIVATED TEACHER will be there for
you!
So what's a fair price to pay for this one-of-a-kind collection of
