I read this document carefully last night; it took me an hour. I am truly shocked and feel sorry for the teachers and principals who are now required to implement this plan. I can not imagine that what Kamras says is true: that this idea was the brainchild of teachers.

Teachers will now have weekly 90-minute LEAP meetings, on top of weekly content meetings, grade level and logistics meetings. They will be observed weekly by TLs, not including IMPACT.

And tell me, how does a Teacher Leader who teaches 3rd grade Math, facilitate, help, and evaluate a Kindergarten or 1st grade Math lesson/teacher? That is a different curriculum, no?

What will happen to the Teacher Leader's students for 50% of the day? They advise:

-buddy reading with older kids
-clubs lead by other teachers
-additional specials (me)
-give to other teachers
-meet after school

Is this good for students? How will their parents feel?

They write like every class has 2 teachers. Really?

What planet does this man live on?

Don't get me wrong, I think colleague coaching and collaboration is a really great idea. But this plan is making me anxious.
