When an art teacher has to be out, we put our rooms in the hands of a sub that probably won't have any art background. I did some informal polls on Facebook with other art teachers. As you can imagine, the shorter the time out of school the more likely it is that a non-art person will be placed to cover your classes. For extended leave, things get better, but even for those who will be out for 2 - 3 months, report having an art qualified sub only about 50% of the time. When someone is out four months or more, there is a greater likelihood (about 70%) that the sub will have an art background.
These tutorials are super basic and are intended for those with no art background. When you follow the link, you are welcome to reference it for your sub. Though I prefer to do video notes if I will be out 1 or 2 days, others prefer to have their students continue working on their art. Every situation is different.
These short tutorials are meant to help these subs so they have some basic knowledge. These videos are meant to be paired with the book, "Sub Plans For Art Teachers" and "Extended Sub Plans For Art Teachers." (Extended plans book will be available in June 2018). These books and MORE resources for art teachers can be found at FirehousePublications and many free resources can be found on this blog.
This list has been added to 2 pages for quick reference. It is at the top of the list on my "Sub Plans" page (Link to the left) as well as at the bottom of my video resources page, again to the left. I will continue to update those links as I find or create more short tutorials. If YOU have a great go-to video or resource, comment below, and I can add it to our list!
