These activity packets will be game-changers in your classroom because they come with ready to go, no-prep, yet FUN lessons your students will actually want to do!

With this no-prep emergency Sub Plan for Middle School ELA, your students will WANT to work and stay on task as they read about Netflix, the rise of the streaming phenomenon, and get quizzed on what they know about the wildly popular service. Packed with engaging activities, this ready-to-use set is ready for your sub tub, and designed to ease the burden of substitute teacher planning while keeping students engaged and motivated.

You'll get a stand-alone resource that was designed to offer a print-and-go sub-plan solution for ELA teachers who don't have time to prep their lessons.

Students read a pop culture article on Netflix and you get lessons that include both reading and writing. Two fun puzzles are also included, as well as a design page where students can pitch their concept for a new series in the #NetflixChallenge. Students will think about what type of series or movie they want to create, the audience, cast of characters and genre and then summarize the story and create a visual promo design. The estimated lexile measure of this set ranges from 900 to 1100.

I always leave my sub binder on my desk for a sub, administrator, or colleague to grab in case of an emergency. I feel at ease knowing my students are engaged, productive, and learning even when I have to be out of the classroom.

  • sub plans
  • bell ringers
  • homework
  • test prep
  • review
  • assessment

Activity: Students can complete all six worksheets as part of a sub packet, but if you don't see them for a full block then assign only one page each day you're out (you'll get even more bang for your buck!) This packet has so many uses beyond sub work - use it any time of year for a no-prep, yet FUN learning activity that kids will actually enjoy doing! All answer keys are included!
