5-Day No-Prep Sub Plan — Sociology

Five days of substitute-ready sociology for high school, built for the problem that makes an elective absence hard: sociology is rarely the covering teacher's subject. Nothing here asks them to teach it. Each day is an original nonfiction reading with every comprehension answer in the reading, then a page that checks its own answers, and a run sheet tells the substitute what to hand out. The five days follow the introductory course in order, from the sociological imagination to stratification and social institutions, and the readings explain concepts and perspectives without asking students to take sides. 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, 69 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

  • Sociology, grades 9-12; tagged Emergency Sub Plans + First Week of School
