A PowerPoint version has been added IN ADDITION to the Editable PDF. The PowerPoint is an all-in-one document- that includes all the sections, your seating chart, AND blank pages to add your own sections. The PowerPoint version also allows you to rearrange, duplicate, and delete pages! This means it is also perfect to submit digitally as needed as well, since you can delete all the instructions as well as dividers and tabs. Instructions to create a digital sub binder from the document are also included in this version.

To use the PowerPoint version, you will need to download 2 fonts. Directions and links included! If you prefer the original editable PDF with fonts embedded, that is included as well. You have the option to choose! :)

Please note that you will need PowerPoint in order to access the most up-to-date version of the substitute binder! You will also need two fonts if you want the text that you type to match the rest of the sub binder. The fonts are free and directions are included within the resource. :) If you don't have PowerPoint, want a digital option, or use a Chromebook as your main device, you may want to grab the sub binder in Google Slides format here.

Editable Binder Tabs

I have created tabs for the divider sections as well as tons of editable tabs, so you can organize as you please!

Binder Spines

Binder spines are included for 1",1.5", and 2" binders. You can choose whether to use the version where you add your name (Your Name's Substitute Binder) or just a plain one that says "Substitute Binder".

Editable Seating Chart Instructions and Blank Seating Charts

Instructions for the Editable Seating Chart (in a separate PowerPoint) are included as well as blank pages for if you'd rather hand draw your seating chart (if you aren't tech savvy).

Back Cover

The back cover is also included with a text box to write an editable note on it.

Editable Table of Contents

This is a table of contents for your sub rather than you. I pre-typed everything that is included in the binder and the dividers as I organized it. You can tweak it if you decided to make any changes.

This note welcomes your sub to the class and gives a brief overview of the information the forms include. You can edit the contents in the blue box as you’d like or leave it as is. Just sign your name!

Class list

You can type the boys names on one side and the girls on the other, alphabetical order, or however you please. Two columns are included so you can fit all your students easily and organize as you would like. You could also leave one side blank for notes if you prefer. Do whatever works best for you and for your class!

Individual Student Contract Info & Pull Outs

BONUSES in the Zipped File

EDITABLE seating chart PowerPoints

Two editable seating chart PowerPoints are included! Please refer to the instructions in the main document before using these. Horizontal and vertical versions are included, with 3 pre-made layouts in each. Choose the one closest to yours as a starting point, then drag and drop to make it your own! Color coding instructions also included.

EXTRA-EDITABLE Sub Binder Sections PDFs

Bonus PDFs are included with editable headers. The main document is mostly editable, but the headers are not.
