Good idea to prioritize each item on the agenda. So if time starts to run out, or we're pondering spending extra time on an in-progress discussion, we've already decided priority for each item.

I'm thinking about how we need to rethink what kinds of groundings we use and when, when in the distance learning environment. We have different needs as well as different kinds of participation now.

Our team has been working on making sure we use protocols as a means to an end and not getting caught up with the logistics of the protocol itself.

Including Team Working Agreements and a Parking Lot to agendas can support psychological safety in the meeting environment.

Grounding, Check-ins, and Community Builders remind us of the importance of building relationships with our teams.  They are essential and important.

Protocols allows for everyone's voice to be heard in a group environment. Also, supports the facilitator in being able to examine other aspects of a meeting.

Agendas help to keep the group on topic, on task and ensure the little things do not get lost or forgotten. They also allow people to go back and review if they have forgotten what was discussed.

Grounding help us remember we are all human and have lives outside of work too!  It helps build a deeper connection with those you are working with which can create empathy, better communication and collaboration.

Protocols can help provide different types of thinking and participation to help a group tackle challenging topics

Roles:  I appreciate having designated roles.  The facilitator doesn't have to be the "octopus" arms of the meeting. They provide others with a responsibility for the meeting.
Outcomes:  I've also found value in having the meeting outcomes noted at the top of the agenda to remind teams of what we hope to accomplish during our time together.
Parking Lot:  This still gives a nod to topics you can't get to at that moment.  Yet, it is recorded so you can revisit and give it attention at another time.

Could be worth keeping these protocols in a handy spot for future reference. Choose the right one for the need and get results from ALL teachers on a team.

# data[].attributes.body
Sharing roles is helpful as long as the roles don't become too much of a thing and take the group away from the meat of the discussion. This used to happen with book clubs, back in the day "Lit Circle" jobs. Turns out we didn't need all those.

The difference between a community builder and a grounding. Does this group need to come together as a community? Does it need an activity to shake off other stuff? Or do they just need a check in that's more loose? Grounding should ground in upcoming work . Do you need both? At CLTs, weekly? Probably not.

# data[].attributes.body
Those 4 questions--I like to rewrite the 3rd one to say something related to the learning we need to do, what do we Ts need to figure out to help the kids who didn't get it. Onus is on us, not them.

Something that stood out to me was assigning a time frame to agenda items rather than 5 minutes.  It might help hold us accountable...we always go over time!

We got stuck in one kind of check in this year and I'd like to mix it up after reading this. I never really understood the differences, so this exercise was super helpful! -Haley

# data[].attributes.body
We have used a few of these before, but I would like to refer back to this list with my fab co team lead when there's more time and dig in to some to try. Start small!- Haley

After reading more about the differences of groundings, check-ins, and community building I now know that there is a difference between them all. I originally thought they were all the same. Based on the group's attitude for the week and the goals, I would determine which would be best to use in our PCL.

I think groundings remind us to h ave a little fun and looks at where we are coming from at the meeting.

Our new reality, with online classes and meetings, we need to revise what grounded activities would be more effective for the participants.

Our team will benefit of a new set of protocols that will support our meetings and how participants feel about them.

We've always had it posted to have roles but we either never assign or we assign but they're rarely followed. I think being explicit about the roles might be good. For instance often we feel rushed through important topics by someone keeping time. So I want to try to talk about the expectations for those roles instead of just assigning. For example: Timekeeper might check in to see if we need to table the next topic instead of pushing us into it.

# data[].attributes.body
I think groundings can be essential but often they get skipped. I think they'd be more useful by being very intentional to the meeting and the team. Sometimes we just need something fun, sometimes we need to use that time wisely to connect to our planning. Also, some members have anxiety over sharing and we should respect that. So I try to be mindful of trying different approaches so it's not dreadful to that person(s) each week.

This is a new learning for me so I'm still exploring. As far as I can tell we generally use them on data days and that might be because we are meeting for a longer period of time. With that said, according to our learning now it's meant to help 45 minute meetings too. So I need to learn and explore more.

This helped me see that there are many ways to organize and capture our agenda. I wish our team had some input into the templates that we used. I think some are more conducive to the work that we do, our priorities, and our working dynamics, more than other templates.

# data[].attributes.body
I now understand the purpose and value of the different grounding activities. I am usually the type to just hit the ground running and get to work right away. Now, I understand how the different grounding activities help us, as a team, get into a productive headspace before diving into the work.

These protocols allow for team members with different working and learning styles to contribute meaningfully and ensure that their voices are heard.
