1.9 FFA Degrees
This FFA Basics lesson plan, “FFA Degrees,” teaches students to identify the differences among the five FFA degrees (Discovery, Greenhand, Chapter, State, and American). In a group activity, students copy each degree’s requirements onto posters, arrange them sequentially, and analyze the qualification differences, supported by a worksheet and an assessment with answer key.
