There was a substitute teacher's story about a class that was known for being rowdy. When he entered, he expected chaos. But he started the class with a magic trick. The students were so amazed that they were quiet for the rest of the class. He then used magic - related analogies to teach various concepts throughout the day, and it turned out to be one of the most well - behaved and productive classes he had ever taught.
There was this substitute teacher on Tumblr who shared her experience of teaching a class of very quiet students. At first, she thought they were shy or disinterested. But as she started a group project, she realized they were just really focused learners. They ended up impressing her with their in - depth knowledge and teamwork, and she left the classroom with a newfound respect for those students.
A substitute teacher once brought in a box of old - fashioned teaching aids like abacuses and slide rules. He was so excited to show them to us, thinking we'd never seen such things. But we were all just amused by how ancient these items seemed. He went on to give a whole lecture about how they used to be used in school, and his enthusiasm made it a really funny and unique experience.
There was this substitute teacher in a middle school. The students were very noisy when he arrived. He noticed that there were a lot of musical instruments in the corner of the classroom. So he started a music session. He let the students play the instruments freely at first and then organized them into a small band. They spent the whole class making music and having fun. It was a unique substitute teaching day.
I know a story where a substitute teacher walked into a science class that was supposed to have a lab session but the regular teacher hadn't prepared the materials. Instead of canceling the lab, the substitute teacher quickly improvised. He used things from around the classroom like pencils and paper clips to create simple physics experiments. The students had a blast learning through these improvised experiments and it was a very memorable class.
A substitute teacher in our science class once. He showed us a really cool experiment that wasn't in the textbook. It involved making a mini - volcano. He made the whole process so exciting and explained the science behind it clearly. We were all on the edge of our seats.
A friend told me about a substitute who punished the whole class for not having the right textbooks. But it was the school's fault as they hadn't distributed them yet. That was really mean.
One story I heard was about a substitute who fell asleep during class. The students were left to their own devices and started causing chaos. They were running around, throwing things, and no learning took place at all.
One crazy substitute teacher story I heard was that a sub walked into a classroom full of high - school students wearing a superhero costume. He said it was to make the class more fun. He even pretended to have superpowers during the lessons.
One of the best substitute teacher stories I know is about a teacher who walked into a chaotic classroom. Instead of getting frustrated, he started doing magic tricks. The students were instantly captivated. He used the tricks to teach basic math concepts like addition and subtraction. For example, he made some small balls disappear and reappear to show how numbers can be added or subtracted. By the end of the day, the unruly class had become a group of eager learners.
A substitute teacher once entered a classroom full of students who were sad because their regular teacher was ill. The sub teacher decided to turn the day into a 'feel - good' day. He brought in some simple art supplies and let the students create cards for their regular teacher. In the process, he taught them about colors and shapes in an art - related lesson. The students not only had a great time but also learned something new. It was a really heartwarming substitute teacher story.
