This FFA interactive know book is set up to  completed through out the course.  We suggest that you do not complete this as a stand along unit.  We suggest making "FFA Fridays" (or any other day) to get this work completed.

You may use this rubric to guide the students through this process.

Careers - Using www.agexplorer.com students are to research 1 career in each of the 9 pathways.  Ideally these careers should be something they are interested in.  As they learn about the career, students are to complete the puzzle piece and add it to their notebook.

FFA History - Students are to create a class FFA timeline.  Break students into groups. (I normally do  groups by decades.  Each group will be assigned a decade.)  Each group is to research 3 major events that happened in their decade and share it in the class google slide.  (See example).  The google slide can be printed out and shared with the class for their knowbook.  Give bonus points if students can tie historical information about your chapter in the timeline.
