5-Day No-Prep Sub Plan — Physical Education

Response Resources 5-day no-prep Physical Education substitute plan cover

Five full days of no-prep, substitute-ready physical education, built for the day the gym is gone and the person covering your class cannot coach or supervise a moving class they do not know. Nothing here needs a ball, a mat, a stopwatch, a gym or a change of clothes. Each day is an original nonfiction reading with every answer on the handout, a page that checks its own answers, and a no-equipment task students perform at or beside their seat and record -- count a pulse before and after marching, walk a skill cue through in slow motion. Nothing asks a student to weigh, measure or rank their body: no BMI, no calorie targets, no dieting, and every comparison is against the student's own earlier number. It is a print-and-go packet, not a gym-class activity plan. You come back to a complete set of answer keys and a class that kept working.

  • Sub & Teacher Notes cover sheet — what to hand out each day

  • 5 self-checking worksheet sets (one per day, 66 questions total) + 5 answer keys

  • 17-page PDF: print pages 1-11 for the student set; answer keys at the back

  • Each day is standalone — no prior lesson needed; run the days in any order

  • Physical Education, grades 6-12; tagged Emergency Sub Plans + First Week of School
