Daily Slack Check-In Prompts

Use these prompts to start daily conversations with interns. Posting the same structure each day helps maintain engagement and surface blockers early.

1. What did you work on yesterday?
2. Encourage brief summaries of tasks or lessons completed.
3. What are you focusing on today?
4. Have interns share their planned tasks so mentors can offer guidance.
5. Any blockers or questions?
6. Provide a safe space to raise issues or request help.
7. Do you need pairing time or code review?
8. Identify opportunities for mentorship or collaboration.
9. Share one quick win or learning from yesterday.
10. Celebrate progress and reinforce continuous learning.

Post the prompts in a dedicated channel such as #daily-check-ins at a consistent time each day. Threading replies keeps conversations organized. React with emojis to acknowledge updates and follow up in a thread if more discussion is needed.
