# Week 13 — Meetings & Facilitation
**Unit 3: Lead Teams & Projects • Domain III**
**Essential Question:** How do I run a meeting that people actually want to attend?
**Key Performance:** Facilitate a 15-minute real team meeting; receive structured feedback.

---

## Day 1 — Why Most Meetings Fail
**Objective:** SWBAT name the 4 most common meeting failure modes (no agenda, no purpose, no facilitation, no decision).
**Do-Now (5):** "Worst meeting I've ever been in. Why?" • **Circle (5):** Single word. • **Mini-Lesson (10):** 4 failure modes + the antidote = PADD (Purpose, Agenda, Decision, Documentation). • **Practice (25):** In pairs, redesign a "bad" meeting using PADD. • **Close (5):** Exit: "The failure mode I'll fix is ___."

## Day 2 — Agenda Craft
**Objective:** SWBAT build an agenda with time-boxed items and decision types.
**Do-Now (5):** Read a sample bad agenda; mark it up. • **Circle (5):** Roses/thorns. • **Mini-Lesson (10):** Agenda anatomy — outcome, owner, time, decision type (inform/discuss/decide). • **Practice (25):** Teams build an agenda for their upcoming real meeting. • **Close (5):** Send to teacher for review.

## Day 3 — Facilitator Moves
**Objective:** SWBAT use 5 facilitator moves (round-robin, parking-lot, stack, time-check, summarize).
**Do-Now (5):** "If I'm facilitating and one person dominates, what do I do?" • **Circle (5):** Check-in. • **Mini-Lesson (10):** 5 moves modeled live. Teacher demos each. • **Practice (25):** Fishbowl — one team holds a 7-min mock meeting; outer ring scores facilitator moves. Two rounds. • **Close (5):** "The move I'll use is ___."

## Day 4 — Facilitate It (Key Performance)
**Objective:** SWBAT facilitate a 15-min real team meeting and receive feedback.
**Do-Now (5):** Final agenda check. • **Circle (5):** Brave check-in. • **Practice (40):** Teams hold parallel 15-min meetings on real capstone topic; one observer per team scores with rubric. Debrief 5 min in team. • **Close (5):** Self-rate.

## Day 5 — Friday Circle: What I Notice About Power
**Do-Now (5):** "How did I use power as a facilitator?" • **Circle (25):** Friday Circle + round: "Something I noticed about who got airtime this week." • **Practice (15):** Portfolio: agenda + meeting notes + observer rubric + reflection. • **Close (5):** Leader of the Week.

## Assessment
4-pt facilitation rubric: **Agenda • 5 moves used • Airtime equity • Decision/documentation clarity.**
## Differentiation
ML/EL — co-facilitate first time; sentence-frame cards for transitions. Stretch — students facilitate a club meeting outside of class for bonus.
## Sub Plan
Day 1 redesign-a-bad-meeting works as a sub day.
## Stretch & Swap
Invite admin to be a "guest attendee" at one team's meeting Day 4 and give the student facilitator feedback.
