It always takes longer than you think to set up your class for a substitute teacher. I substitute taught for years and i would always tell the students I am not a substitute like saccharin is a sugar substitute, I am an alternative like honey. This reminds me of a substitute teacher that came to my elementary school class. Instead of teaching us math he told us all about the honey bee hives he kept and passed around samples of honeycomb dripping with honey for us to taste. We were riveted to his words and I never forgot how interesting that day was. When a teacher returns to find out her students loved the sub it’s bittersweet. One must teach the curriculum but a sub can do pretty much whatever they want.
