+Module Two: Tools of the Trade Introduction to Tools of the Trade Mr. Lumerman Communications Mr. Savarino Planning Mr. Silberman The Teaching EDGE Mr. Synnott
+Planning Good planning is an essential skill Things don t just happen in the troop someone sometimes you planned ahead an prepared for it to happen The better planned an activity, the more fun and successful the event will be (reverse if not planned well)
+Planning Planning is just thinking ahead About what s needed to get the outcome you want to have happen To begin planning Ask yourself or small group questions and come up with answers Who? What? Where? When? Why? What types of questions should you ask?
+Planning What do we want to do? What is the desired outcome Where should this happen? What equipment do we need? Who is responsible? When is the activity? Who is participating?
+Planning The more questions you can answer ahead of time, the better the activity will be Next, focus on what if scenarios? What do we do if X happens? This will help you be prepared when things don t go as originally planned
+Planning Last, focus on who . Who is responsible for that part to happen? Who will bring that item? Sometimes teams work out a good plan but then the leader doesn t assign specific owners to every needed task. Figuring out what s needed is an important part of planning, but assigning someone to take care of it is essential
+Planning Let s Practice Planning Scenario Six weeks from now on Saturday, the troop will conduct a service project at the Plainview Pool The project involves: Installing 50 feet of split-rail fence around a tree Removing old plants (approx. 500 square feet) Laying down weed block in the cleared area Spreading 6 cubic yards of mulch in the cleared area and around the tree Planting 20 small plants and shrubs in a small garden in a third area
+Planning The three work areas are close together The town will provide the wood and hardware for the fencing, the plants for the garden, the weed block, the mulch, and several trash receptacles for the removed materials The troop will bring 22 scouts and 10 adults The troop must provide any equipment needed to do the work Plan to finish on one Saturday
+Planning Task Plan what equipment you need and how you re going to get it Plan how to use and manage your team on the day of the project You have 10 Minutes - BEGIN
+Planning STOP Someone explain the plan to me
+Planning Reflection The planning session How did the planning go? Who led the discussion? Did that work? Did anyone take notes? What did you focus on first? What else still needs to be planned? Was 10 minutes enough?
+Planning Reflection The project Who was assigned to lead the project? How did you divide the work? Teams? Who was in charge of the teams? How were the adults allocated? What about safety? How much time did you estimate for each task? What about food?
+Planning Reflection The project What about bad weather? Did the project require any special skills? What equipment did you put on your equipment list? Was someone assigned to bring each item?
+Planning Key Points Pick someone to lead the project, ideally the senior patrol leader. Assign age-appropriate tasks to each group. Divide up the adults. They should be coaching and mentoring the Scout leader of each team not leading the team themselves. Place skilled adults with the teams needing greater skill . Always consider safety factors when working on service projects or other Scouting activities. Every Scout should be instructed to bring his outdoor essentials whenever the troop is doing an activity of this nature. Personal safety gear, like work gloves or eye protection, should also be considered for service projects. A variety of equipment is needed. Make a good list, then assign someone to each item
+Planning Final Comments Don t presume that something needed will be there things don t just happen Always assign someone and follow-up that it will happen
+Planning Final Comments As you become more aware of the value of planning you will begin to notice when others have not put in enough time or effort into planning Provide each other constructive feedback to help each other for future events Ask for feedback when you run an event When you put in proper planning time, you will be seen as a leader
+Teaching E.D.G.E. The four-step EDGE process is a simple method for teaching any skill: Explain The trainer explains how something is done. Demonstrate After the trainer explains, the trainer demonstrates while explaining again. This gives the learner a clear understanding of what success looks like Guide The learner tries the skill while the trainer guides him through it. The trainer gives instant feedback as the learner practices the skill. Enable The learner works independently under the watchful eye of the trainer. The trainer helps remove any obstacles to success, enabling learner to succeed.
