About The Backup Teacher

Hey there! I'm Lauren. When I started teaching fifth and sixth grade, I felt like I was thrown into the deep end. I quickly realized that my school's curriculum priority was the lower and mid-elementary grades. While I loved the freedom and creativity that I had to create resources that met the needs of my students and filled the gaps, it came at the price of my time.

I aim to provide you with time-saving, integrated resources that promote student engagement and differentiation at the fifth and sixth grade levels so you can do what you love (teach) and not compromise your time!
