Planning for LENA Grow

4. Create Your Seasonal Plan (2 min)

Now that you’ve set your launch schedule, it’s time to plan for the whole year by creating a Seasonal Plan! This lesson will help you think about how to get the most out of your yearlong subscription.

  • The launch schedule you completed in the previous lesson will be included in your first Seasonal Plan.
  • This lesson helps you think about ways to maximize your program potential throughout your yearlong subscription.
If you already have a plan with LENA, great!. Review it now and note any changes to discuss with your Partner Success Manager.
If you don’t have a Seasonal Plan yet, reflect on the questions provided. During your next call, LENA will help you create a plan that works for your organization.

This is an example Seasonal Plan. Your PSM will help customize a plan for you.


LENA recommends completing sequences across multiple seasons. Many partners choose one fall sequence and two spring sequences. As you plan your schedule, think about:

  1. How many rooms can you use? (check LENA Online.)
  2. How and when you will recruit sites
  3. How many coaches do you have?
  4. How many rooms can each coach serve at once?
  5. When will each room participate during the year?
  6. How does LENA Grow fit with other initiatives, like assessments or professional development?

If you own your own devices, check how many devices and vests you have. This will affect how many rooms you can serve at the same time.

 


Remember:

  • You may need to revisit your launch schedule or adjust both schedules together until everything fits your organization’s needs.
  • Once your Seasonal Plan is created, you can view it anytime in LENA Online → Account Management → Subscription.
