 Good for Beginners September 23, 2008

This is a great book for someone beginning to sub. It had some excellent ideas on how to manage the classroom (which is always one of the biggest fears). The "extra time" ideas are fun and creative and there are pleanty of good printable worksheets. All in all, and excellent addition to your library.

This book delivers everything it promises. It is detailed, easy to read, and comprehensive. I recommend this book to new substitute teachers who are unsure about what they are getting themselves into.
 Not for high school substitutes September 7, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
From the description it is not clear as to whether this is a substitute book for elementary or high school. It is GREAT for elementary teachers and some of the information is applicable to both. But, for the most part, I found it inadequate for high school substitute teaching.
 Great Guide for Substitutes August 8, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book gave a lot of tips for being an effective substitute teacher. It is chuckful of interesting tidbits to help newbies in the field. I particularly liked that the professional standpoint that it took on how to make a good name for yourself as a substitute teacher. It is a very positive book. It is easy to read because the writer does not talk above you or at you rather at your level. Nor is it like the typical self help books that tend to drive the reader into overload with all sorts of new information. I would say it is more along the lines of reasoning and wisdom when it comes to teaching children. I appreciated the perspectives that Barbara offered in her book. They gave a lot of food for thought. I enjoyed reading it.
The BEST book on substitute teaching that I have found! May 4, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is by far the best book to get you started or keep you inspired as a SUB. It has both serious and light-hearted advice that is practical and easy to implement. Lots of life lessons learned by the author are related in a simple way so that you feel as if you are chatting with an experienced teacher who is giving you all the best secrets they have. Loved it!
