Absent students require a strong classroom management system in place no matter what grade you teach. Using absent work folders is critical to stay organized when it comes to students’ absences.
Today’s freebie is a cover for your absent folders: “While you were out…”. After you take attendance, simply place the absent folder on the missing student’s desk. Throughout the day as you’re passing out papers, slip their worksheets inside the folder. Make it even easier on yourself, and make it a classroom job for your students! When a parent comes by to pick up missing assignments, you’re all set! It’s good to keep about five absent folders for your class, in case of a flu outbreak.
