What this sheet is for
Turns a session that was half-planned in your head into something a helper can pick up and run, and leaves a record of what was planned for the next time round.
Who it is for
Youth workers and volunteer leaders planning a weekly session for a church youth group, club or community project.
How to use it
- Write the aim first — one line on what you want them to take away.
- Block the session out from and to, so the timings are decided before the night.
- Name who is leading each part, including the helpers.
- List everything to buy, borrow or print, with a name and a date against each.
- Keep the filled sheet with the term's other plans, so next year starts from something.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: One session planned on one page — the aim, the timings, what each part needs, who is leading it and what has to be bought, borrowed or set up beforehand.
The content is yours to set. The plan is yours: this sheet sets no theme, no length, no age range and no ratio of leaders to young people. Those come from your group's own policy and the rules where you are. Write yours into the blanks at the top.
Write-on lines: Date · Session title or theme · Age group · Expected number · Leading · Helping · Leaders on duty (number) · Aim of the session — what you want them to take away
Plan — the running order for the session, and what each part needs
Table, 6 rows: From · To · Activity · Led by · What it needs
Table, 4 rows: To buy, borrow or print before the session · Who · By when · Done
Ruled lines: Afterwards — what worked, what to change, anything to pass on
Questions
Why no suggested length or number of leaders?
Because both are set by your group's policy and the rules where you are. There are blanks at the top for the numbers you work to.
Can this be used for an adult group?
Yes — the shape suits any session that has an aim, a running order and kit to gather. The register that pairs with it is written for young people, though.
