Lessons 2 and 3 – Understanding Life Balance

This substitute teacher lesson plan (Lessons 2 and 3 in the Personal Development 10th–12th grade series) teaches students about life balance and goal setting. Students categorize their goals, develop a 10-year long-term plan, create personal “identity squares” that they tie together into a class quilt, and reflect on mutual interest and how the FFA promotes it.
