Layni LeBlanc – Gray Space (Spanish)
This lesson plan, built around the 2018-19 National FFA Secretary Layni LeBlanc’s retiring address video “La zona gris” (“The Gray Zone”), teaches students the importance of continually asking questions and thinking for themselves rather than following others without questioning. Students watch the video, complete an accompanying worksheet, and engage in follow-up discussion, extension, and exit-ticket activities centered on curiosity and independent thinking.
