I have to say that there is a part of me that is not supportive of
dragging other teachers away from their strategies..... IF those
strategies are working for THOSE teachers. I say this from the
perspective of one who was the only person in my building using a
math workshop approach. I never felt the need to have other teachers
do what I was doing, and I was very glad that nobody tried to drag me
into their shift into direct instruction.
There are two sides to this coin.
Just a thought...

I have been using RW with CAFE for a couple of years now. I think
the only way to get those teachers on board that are dragging their
heels (and I don't really want to say this because we all are
professionals) is to get the administration involved. I took my
CAFE book and D5 book to the principal last year and she ordered
copies for everyone. Now, this year instead of being the lone wolf
in my school using RW and CAFE, all the 3-5 teachers are trying CAFE.

Deep down we must have real affection for each other, a clear
realization or recognition of our shared human status. At the same
time, we must openly accept all ideologies and systems as a means of
solving humanity's problems. One country, one nation, one ideology,
one system is not sufficient.
~ The Dalai Lama
