Kolesen McCoy – Humbly Known (Spanish)

This lesson plan, built around National FFA President Kolesen McCoy’s 2019-20 retiring address video “Ser humildes,” teaches students about humility and how recognizing and using their personal strengths can help them connect with and serve others. Students watch the speech, complete an accompanying worksheet, identify four of their own strengths, and plan acts of kindness based on those strengths.
