Guilty pleasures: What we did to substitute teachers and their lesson plans.

The smarter the kids, the more diabolical the antics and setup. One substitute teacher broke his glasses throwing it on his desk. The laughter from most of the class (not from me - I was amazed) - was cruel.

Subs should get hazard pay. They need therapy afterwards.

Recess, and I grew up in the northeast so stealing lunch trays to sled on at recess is a really fond memory.

Naps weren’t a thing in elementary school. We didn’t really have snacks either, unless it was a special day or someone brought snacks for their bday. It was recess, all the way!

No naps or snacks and only gold stars. Recess was short. I’d nap when we had films. Loved the library, read half of it by the time I finished 4th grade.
