Super Worksheets for Teachers
“Real heroes don’t wear capes, they teach!” -Unknown.
Teaching is challenging, rewarding, exhausting, overwhelming, and extraordinary
all at once. Teachers can juggle drying tears, organizing chaos, instructing
challenging curriculum, and so much more all before lunch. But how do teachers
juggle all that we have to on a daily basis? We have great planners and teacher
worksheets that help keep our heads on straight. Today I’m sharing my favorite
super worksheets for all you super teachers out there! Read more to learn about
my favorite, no super worksheets for teachers that help me plan and execute all
the amazing thing we teachers do.
Worksheets for Teachers
Conferring sheets
One thing that makes my teacher life easier is
having my conference binder organized and ready for use. I let my kiddos use graphic
organizers, so why shouldn’t I? At the start of each year I print out my favorite conferring
sheets and get a tab ready for each kiddo in my class. Then I set up a tab for
each of my reading, writing, and math groups. Disclaimer: This is totally a time consuming
project with all the tiny tabs, just a heads up. But you know what, it is so
worth it! This one stop teacher worksheet spot helps keep me sane, organized,
and ready to confer with my students. Trust me, in the craziness of the day it
is my saving grace to have one thing that is always organized and easy! Plus, it's nice to have one spot in my room that makes me feel like I have my life together. You can

Sub Plans
Superheros get sick sometimes too. When that
happens, super teachers need great sub plans! Sub plans? Grrrooooaaaann! I
know what we’re all thinking; writing sub plans are the worst! You’re right,
writing sub plans is no walk in the park, especially when you wake up feeling absolutely horrible. But when you have easy digital,
editable plans that you can copy and paste over and over, writing sub plans
gets a whole lot easier. I use these editable sub plans to easily make and
print 3 days worth of sub plans at the start of the year. I keep them in a
binder labeled "sub tub" and replenish as needed. I'm not sure why I call it a "sub tub" when it is actually a binder... hmm. Anyway, I set this up because if I wake up feeling absolutely
dreadful, I don’t have to spend hours planning, writing, and emailing plans for
my substitute. Yay! Back to bed with all the tissues and soft blankets! However you choose to set up your sub plans, I definitely recommend writing a few extra days in advance and putting them in a binder somewhere. Don't worry, you can thank me later.

Year Long Checklists
I love checklists! I feel like I always have a
million thoughts swarming around my head. Checklists help me get visually
grounded and prioritize what I need to do first.. or not at all. I print out one of these FREE
monthly checklists and make one for each upcoming month. I will add to it as
the month gets closer. I am a total big picture person. I can handle all the
little things no problem, as long as I have a rough outline or big picture.
This is why checklists really help me. I can look down and see if I need reading
assessments done by a certain date, and it will jog my memory to start them
sooner. It all just somehow seems more manageable with checklists. You can grab
these free checklists HERE.
I.E.P. at a glance
I don’t know about you, but honestly, I have a
horrible memory. It is what it is. So, I made these I.E.P. at a glance forms and
good Lord are they a saving grace! I take time to look over each one of my
kiddos I.E.P.’s at first. Then, I use the template to make myself a cheat sheet
version. You know, one that’s not 500 pages long. Then, I put it in front of
their data folder so I always have easy access to it. Honestly, any little
thing that helps save me time in the classroom is my friend, and this helps
save me time. Therefore, we are for sure friends! If you want to grab these forms, you can click HERE.
