Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Have your own classroom management policy for substitution and if you feel you need to, teach it every new class your in. Go over the expectations, the rules, and the lessons. Most times students don't respect subs because they don't expect to have to do any work. Involve education and a lesson and don't let their expectations of work in the classroom and homework drop off just because the teacher is absent.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: Great idea!

Some students act out against change in a situation like this.

This could create problems as students become confused and I would rather avoid that.

It would take time and might even be exhausting for the sub to have to repeat themselves so often.
