Part II: Ag Ed 3 Circle Model: Classroom/ Lab, SAE, & FFA (Competition Day: Saturday, May 17, 2025)

The day of the contest, a randomly chosen team member will be selected to teach 15 minutes of any part of their lesson to a mock class (each team must provide one non team member student who wishes to participate in each lesson being presented by all teams that day).  Two out of three other aspects of the 3 circle model of Ag Ed will then be randomly assigned to the remaining other team members.   (If there is less than 3 in a team, individuals will be divided to complete all components as evenly as possible.  If there is a team of only 1, then the 1 member will complete all components by themselves.)
