Substitute Teaching Adventures

I started substitute teaching in the West Ada School District last week to make some extra money. I wasn't too nervous after 2 years of substituting in the Canyons School District all those years ago and after teaching my own classes. My first day, however, ended up being a bust. I accepted a job being an extended resource room para at one of the high schools. It turned out the job posting was just a mistake and there was not really any need for me. The special education department head was basically just finding things for me to do. I got to work with some really cute special needs kids, but I really didn't need to be there. I almost wish they would have just been honest with me and sent me home instead of passing me off to various teachers. We'll see how subbing this time around compares to my 2015-2016 subbing though.
