+#### Schedule
+
+* 1:00 - Gather into groups
+* 1:05 - Begin small group discussions, take notes
+* 1:40 - Collate notes into a single group document
+* 1:55 - Break / Regroup into main room & sit with your group
+* 2:00 - Full group discussion
+
+#### Small Group
+
+Fork the `reading` repository and collate your group's notes into the appropriate file in https://github.com/JumpstartLab/reading/tree/master/inspired/composite_notes
+
+Each member of the group is responsible for one discussion question and recording notes on the group's responses. It should **NOT** be one person taking notes the entire time. The person who poses the question takes the notes. When you're not taking notes, close your laptop.
+
+Consider using an 8-minute timer for each question's discussion.
+
+Submit 1 pull request for your group when you finish the notes. It should not contain changes to any files or folders other than your group's markdown file.
+
+Be back in the main room, pull request submitted, and seated with your group at 2:00.
+
+### New Project
+
+This afternoon we'll reveal your new four-person groups and new project.
