Title: Not at all helpful
Review: This book is very random and not at all helpful. The cut-and-paste lesson plans are based on specific topics that most likely aren't going to be relevant to the students. And besides, the students won't do the work if they know they won't be graded on it. And the worst advice was to just leave the classroom, or "walk," if the classroom gets out of control. You may as well turn in your badge because you won't be working for the district ever again.A useful book would talk about what to do if the teacher leaves lesson plans that are too short for the time period or no lesson plans at all. Bringing in un-gradable, non-standards-based lesson plans won't cut it. It would be better to just let the kids have study period. There's more advice for the permanent teacher than the sub in the book. But even then, the writing is just random and long-winded. Don't bother with this book.
