I got caught out yesterday. It doesn’t happen very often. I have taken over a new class and last lesson they decided to play “you’re going to be a supply teacher, we’re not playing the behaviour game” with me. I’d taught the class only once before the previous week & they weren’t too bad, a little unsettled, but they have a change of teacher so hey ho! The previous teacher hadn’t left me any information on them so I was going somewhat blind into the lesson and was prepared to give them a little bit of leeway because of it.
