PLC agenda generator

Tell Sparky what the PLC meeting is about and how long it runs. Sparky writes a timed agenda with outcomes, discussion questions, decisions and action items, then fills in your team's details.

A teacher asks Sparky for an agenda for a 45-minute PLC on the unit 3 math test and gets a draft agenda with desired outcomes and a timed table right away, with Sparky asking which items were weakest and what the team needs to decide

Used by 250,000+ teachers, and built to FERPA, COPPA and GDPR standards.

How the PLC agenda generator works

  1. Say what the meeting is about

    Type one line, such as "agenda for a 45-min PLC on our unit 3 math test". Attach the score report if you have it.

  2. Add your team's details

    Sparky writes a draft with placeholders and asks what the data showed and what the team needs to decide. Your answers go into the same agenda, which the app saves as a new version.

  3. Share it with the team

    Save the agenda to Google Drive as a Google Doc, download it as a Word file, copy it or print it.

What goes on a PLC agenda

  • Desired outcomes

    What the team will have done by the end of the meeting, such as forming re-teaching groups.

  • Timed segments

    Each part of the meeting with its minutes, what the team does in it and what it should produce.

  • Discussion questions apart from decisions

    Questions to explore the data are listed apart from the decisions, so the team knows when it's discussing and when it's deciding.

  • Decisions to make

    The commitments to land before everyone leaves, such as the re-teaching focus and the grouping criteria.

  • Evidence to bring

    A checklist of what to bring: the item analysis, score results by class, student work samples.

  • Action items

    A table of next steps with an owner and a due date for each one.

Ways teachers use it

  • Data meetings

    Review a unit test or benchmark, name the weakest skill and decide who gets re-taught what.

  • SMART goals

    Turn your baseline and target into a goal with a measure and a deadline. The button opens Flint's SMART goals tool.

  • Planning a unit together

    Agree on the unit's learning targets, the common assessment and who builds which lessons.

  • Looking at student work

    Sort samples from one task against the rubric and agree on what proficient looks like.

What teachers say about Flint

  • "I have used Flint as an intro to a new unit, assessment mid-unit, aide in the writing process, and practice/prep for assessments. I find that my colleagues and I get more nuanced and successful in building activities the more we practice. :)"

  • "Flint makes it easier for teachers to personalize lessons and save time on routine tasks. Students get to use AI more as a study partner - not just for answers, but for guiding their thinking and building confidence."

Frequently asked questions

Is the PLC agenda generator free?

Yes, it's free for teachers, and there's no limit on how many agendas you can make.

Is there a PLC agenda template I can reuse?

Yes. Ask for an agenda and keep it as your template: desired outcomes, a timed table of segments, discussion questions, decisions to make, evidence to bring and action items with owners. Sparky leaves placeholders like [e.g., ...] for anything you haven't told it, so the same agenda works for the next meeting.

Can it write SMART goals?

Yes. Tell Sparky your baseline, your target and the timeframe, and it writes the goal with a line for each SMART letter, such as "By the Unit 4 test in six weeks, 80% of 7th grade students will score 70% or better on fraction-to-decimal items, up from a current baseline of 48%." Sparky won't invent baseline data, so it asks for your results first. Flint's SMART goals generator is built for this.

Can I attach our assessment data?

Yes. Attach the item analysis or score report as a PDF, a spreadsheet or a CSV, or import it from Google Drive or OneDrive, and Sparky builds the discussion around what the data shows.

Can it fit our meeting length and protocol?

Yes. Say how long the meeting runs and Sparky times each segment to fit. If your team uses a protocol, such as the Tuning Protocol for looking at student work, name it and Sparky builds the agenda around its steps.

Can the team fill the agenda in during the meeting?

Save the agenda to your Google Drive as a Google Doc and share it with your team there, or download it as a Word file. You can also copy it or print it.
