Sub Plans for Media Center
for Evelyn Bussell
Afternoon of Thursday, January 5, 2023
Thank you for subbing for me! I will be at the dentist for myself and my two kids (!), so if you have any questions, please text me at 919-539-8467. Please write me any notes about how your day goes, about particular classes or students that I should know about.
Water bottles, backpacks, lunch boxes/bags, playground equipment should all be left on/at the empty wooden display by the front door next to the light switch panel.
SCHEDULE:
12:35-1:20pm - 2nd Grade - Russ & Raynor
1:25-1:55pm - Planning
2:00-2:45pm - 4th Grade - Roy
2:50-3:35pm - 5th Grade - Hagler
SEATING & Book Return
ALL Grades As students come in, have them place any water bottles, bookbags, lunch boxes, etc. on the table or floor in the rainbow taped off section at the front door. They should then check IN any book they are bringing back to the library. They will scan their book where it says Pleasant Grove on the back and place the book on the blue cart, unless it is a bin book and they know which bin to return it to.
The following students are fairly reliable for knowing the correct way to check in and checkout books. You can ask them to be helpers.
2nd grade - Deven & Maddison
4th grade - Jihoon & Emma & Jacob
5th grade - Aubrey & Emery
All Students will sit in the Non-Fiction section. Have the line leader take the line and stop at the rainbow line on the floor just before the tables.
2nd Grade - Seat students 3-4 at a time at the tables. There should only be 3 chairs at Table 1.
4th & 5th Grade - Use the seating charts attached to the printed plans. They will NOT remember or know where they are to sit so you will need to tell each of them. Both of these classes can be challenging so I have assigned them seats to minimize behavior issues.
At the beginning of every single class I review the expectations using the following script:
My expectations today are the same as last week and all year long.
I expect that you will Be Safe and you will Be Respectful.
Right now being safe looks like sitting on your bottom, your body is in control and your body parts are kept to yourself. (If students will be moving around the room, substitute "using walking feet" for sitting on your bottom)
Right now being respectful looks like eyes and ears are on me, your mouth and body are quiet and you are paying attention. (If students are sitting for a lesson or read-aloud; if they are moving around for checkout then they are quiet and on-task)
2nd Grade - 12:35-1:20pm
After students are seated, review the expectations as scripted above.
State the following at the beginning and anytime during the period that students are talking, playing or otherwise not paying attention:
“I will wait until you are ready. I will know you are ready when you are sitting on your bottom, your hands are in your lap, your eyes and ears are on me, and your mouth is quiet.”
Play for them the video I made regarding their chromebook chargers. Afterward, tell them that if they have any questions, they will need to ask their teacher or wait until Ms. Bussell is back tomorrow. (If the link does not work, the url is https://bit.ly/3QhvLU0 )
Next, tell them that you will be going to see who can check out books today and that they’ll need to remain quiet while you call out their names. During checkout, they are to use walking feet and whisper voices.
Click on the tab “”Check Out” on the laptop
Ask students who are in Mrs. Raynor’s room to raise their hand.
On one of them select the homeroom “eraynor” from the drop down menu.
Click on each of those students’ picture/name. If they have 0 books out, they may check out 3 books. If they have 1 book out, they may check out 2 books. If they have 2 books out, they may check out 1 book.
After reviewing students in Mrs. Raynor’s class, click “RESET” on the screen and select the homeroom “druss” from the drop down menu.
Click on each of those students’ picture/name. If they have 0 books out, they may check out 3 books. If they have 1 book out, they may check out 2 books. If they have 2 books out, they may check out 1 book.
After students check out their books, they are to sit somewhere and read quietly either alone or with ONE friend. At this point you may walk around to keep students on task.
4th Grade - 1:25-2:10pm & 5th Grade - 2:50-3:35pm
After students are seated, review the expectations as scripted above.
State the following at the beginning and anytime during the period that students are talking, playing or otherwise not paying attention:
“I will wait until you are ready. I will know you are ready when you are sitting on your bottom, your hands are in your lap, your eyes and ears are on me, and your mouth is quiet.”
Play for them the video I made regarding their chromebook chargers. Afterward, tell them that if they have any questions, they will need to ask their teacher or wait until Ms. Bussell is back tomorrow. (If the link does not work, the url is https://bit.ly/3QhvLU0 )
While students are doing the activity below, you will click over to the “Check Out” tab.
Select the homeroom “mroy” (for 4th gr) or “khagler” (for 5th gr) from the drop down menu.
Click on each of those students’ picture/name. If they have 0 books out, they may check out 3 books. If they have 1 book out, they may check out 2 books. If they have 2 books out, they may check out 1 book. ONLY let 3-4 students at a time get up to checkout.
