LifeKnowledge
Many educators, parents, and industry leaders expect students to develop essential skills in leadership, communication, teamwork, and personal development. Some of these skills are inherent components of classroom and FFA activities, but many more could be integrated into agricultural education programs if teachers had access to the resources needed for a targeted, measurable approach to leadership, personal growth, and career success. Welcome to LifeKnowledge. Real lessons for real life.
AgriEntreprenuership
Twelve lessons were developed to assist educators in teaching entrepreneurial concepts. The lesson plans are available below and include all handouts needed for the classroom. The lessons have been developed incorporating National Standards and can be used singularly or as a complete educational experience.
Drinking Water-Protecting the Source
The Drinking Water: Protecting the Source instructional materials will assist teachers who seek to enhance the consciousness of their students about where their drinking water comes from and how sources of drinking water can be protected. The teaching materials are designed to supplement existing instruction in agriculture, food and natural resources courses. The instructional materials are related to water characteristics and contaminants, water regulations, drainage, and reducing the flow of nutrients into groundwater and surface water
Renewable Fuels
The Renewable Fuels instructional materials were created for educators to use with students to develop a solid foundational understanding of renewable fuels. The six units of curriculum include information ranging from definitions of ethanol and processes within the ethanol industry to the exploration of career opportunities in renewable fuels.
