Peyton Moore – Agritourism SAE Lesson Plan
“Harvesting the Benefits” is a 45-minute FFA lesson plan that connects Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE) programs in the Agribusiness Systems career focus area to FFA activities, coursework, and careers using the three-circle model of agricultural education. Students watch a video about an agritourism SAE, use AgExplorer to research careers, and complete Venn-diagram worksheets (“Growing Career Success” and “Growing YOUR Career Success”) to apply the concepts to their own SAE.
