[quote=Anonymous][quote]I remember being in a meeting with the reading resource teacher to find out that she spent 80% of her time creating reading lesson plans for teachers. She showed me one she had been working all day on for writing a fairy tale as if that had never been done before in 4th grade. I asked "aren't you helping students with reading?" and the answer was that most of the individual reading help was done by the teacher and not the reading resource. The reading resource was there to support the teachers. True story.

This still goes on?  I haven't taught in years, but I remember when the Reading Specialist went from taking groups of kids, to being a "resource."  It was a joke.  What a waste of resources.  She never did anything to help teachers.  I do think she had to be informed when we moved kids up to the next "level,"  but I don't think she ever checked anything.  The teachers could never figure out what she did all day.  I don't think she ever stepped into my classroom.[/quote]
