[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do instructional coaches do? [/quote]

They literally make more work for teachers.  That's their entire job.  Some of them are nice people and well-liked, but few of us would miss those positions if they were all cut.  [/quote]

Can you give an example of “more work?” [/quote]

Different teacher, force us to sit in an hour long meeting to plan a unit that we already material to use from the previous year.[/quote]

“Unpack standards” that are already unpacked in the pacing.
CT meetings that always start with a grounding exercise.
CT meetings in which we “jigsaw” an article and then “share out” about what we read.

DP. Add to that a huge list of pointless questions that need to be answered and documented during the CT meeting. When are we supposed to discuss what we're actually doing then? 
This is the same person who sent us a document last year about how if [b]a[/b] student was on their phone in class (most of them were), we should have a discussion with the student to understand why they're using the phone, since phones are such a part of this generation's nature... I kid you not.[/quote]
