Sunday Class

It's helpful to think about each Sunday Class as a workshop instead of a lecture.

You are expected to study the assigned prep work before arriving. Prep work will cover the theory you need in order to dive into the exercises on Sunday. Most of your time on Sundays will be in small groups working on a set of exercises with the support of a coach. HYF is a majority self-study course. Your coach will be there to help out but they will not explain everything or solve the exercises for you.

You will not cover the whole week's material on Sunday. In Sunday Classes you will cover just enough of the week's trickiest concepts to get you ready for the rest of the week.

So come prepared each Sunday to practice the new material together. After all, working in groups is hardest things to practice alone over the week ;)

A Standard Sunday

Every Sunday will be a little different depending on the week's material, but they will all be similar to this:

  1. Roll Call - Before Class
    • Your coaches will create a roll-call issue, and they will close the issue when class begins. Leaving your comment after the issue is closed will count as coming late (unless you let us know before Sunday).
  2. Review (all together)
    • Your coaches will spend some time answering questions from last week and going over any exercises your class had trouble with. They will start by going through the Q & A and Help Wanted discussions. But also ask new questions in person! This is your chance to clear up anything you would like to review before moving on to the new material.
  3. New Material (all together)
    • Your coaches will give a short introduction to this Sunday's new material. They will help you understand why the new material is important and how you will use it in the coming week. Because you are expected to have studied the prep work and theory before Sunday, the coaches will spend this time exploring practical examples instead of explaining the basics.
  4. Examples and Exercises (small groups)
    • In small (usually random) groups you will study this Sundays' examples and exercises. Your coaches will go around helping out in the small groups as necessary.
  5. Check-In (all together)
    • Each group shares a quick summary of what went well, what went less well, and what they learned.
  6. Break!: 🚽, ☕, 🍜, 👥.
  7. Review & New Material (all together)
    • Your coaches will do a quick review of the examples and exercises that were most challenging for the class. They will also introduce any new topics from the after-break examples and exercises.
  8. Examples and Exercises (small groups)
    • Return to your small groups to continue studying the assigned examples and exercises.
  9. Check-In (all together)
    • Each group shares a quick summary of what went well, what went less well, and what they learned.
  10. Good Bye (all together)
    • Take a look through the coming week's study plan, then you're all done for the day!
