Activity #2

DiscussionHow easy was it to do the tasks that you were

given?Would the tasks have been easier to complete

if you were doing it without your partners help? Why or why not?

What can this activity teach us about working together?

How hard is it to do some things as a group rather then by yourself?

DiscussionDo some people work better by themselves

rather then in a group?Have you ever bee in a situation where a group

slowed you down?How frustrating is it to be slowed down?What are some ways when working with a group

that you ca keep from having problems? If you become frustrated when working with a

group what can you do to lesson the frustration?

Key MessageDo not be afraid to work together as a team.

Work with your state adviser, area advisors, and chapter advisors to make sure we are on the same page.

We need to assure we are on the same page and make sure expectations are the same so that we can all be successful.

FCCLA Classroom Implementation Plan

Chapter StructureOne Chapter Per Class

Each class functions as a chapter within the classroom, selecting leaders and conducting projects. Each class affiliates as a separate chapter.

One Mini-Chapter Per Class

Each class functions as a chapter with the classroom, selecting leaders and conducting projects. The mini chapters affiliate as a single chapter for the school.One Chapter Per Adviser

In a multiple school, each adviser’s classroom mini-chapters affiliate as a separate chapter.

FCCLA as A Teaching ToolStudent Leadership: Turn the planning, management, and implementation

of learning activities like films, speakers, and enrichment activities over to students.

Show how the topic relates to an FCCLA National Program.

Students develop leadership as they create the activity.

Because it is “their” activity, they must put more into it and, as a result, get much more out of it. This is an easy, effective way to integrate FCCLA into the curriculum and is easier on you.

FCCLA as A Teaching ToolVisibility: FCCLA is an integral part of the total Family and Consumer

Sciences program, so keep it visible. Display the emblem, creed, and purposes. They can arouse interest, promote enrollment, and spark classes into action

Planning Process: Use the FCCLA Planning Process to brainstorm students ideas

on any classroom topic. Identify it as a part of what young people learn in FCCLA. If possible, use the planning process to determine topics and priorities of the entire course.

Resources: Use Teen Times, the state FCCLA newsletter, Advisor

excerpts, etc. when discussing young people’s needs and concerns. Identify the resources as among the benefits of belonging to FCCLA.

FCCLA as A Teaching ToolFlexibility: When a class discussion lends itself to developing an

FCCLA project, hand the president the gavel and have an “instant” FCCLA meeting. FCCLA programs and projects are outgrowths of the curriculum…encourage them to grow when the “teachable moment” arrives.

Subtle influence: You can be the “gardener” who plants the seed of an idea,

then lets students take over to grow it. Toss out an idea, then sit back and watch it grow into a super student-created project idea. You can “cultivate” some direction during discussion while giving students ownership of their ideas and plans.

ResourcesThe Ultimate Officer Handbook

& Training Manual is full of activities and resources for the FCCLA leader. Use this manual as an instructional tool or textbook for teaching leadership in every Family and Consumer Sciences class.

Integrating National Programs

Make the project relevant to the students in the classroom.

Survey Students about hat they are interested in.Have students conduct a community needs

assessmentSelect a topic they will focus on for the semester.Students then work as a group to plan a project to

address the issue

Integrating National ProgramsLarger Classrooms

Classes may be divided into subgroups of 5-10 students

Each group may design a plan around a community need

Or plan a component of a much larger project

For ExampleCancer AwarenessOne group may work on the education component

for a particular type of cancer.One group may work on raising funds for the

American Cancer Society.The class may decide to sponsor a cancer

awareness event and invite various groups to present screening methods, awareness information, fundraising opportunities or other information preventing cancer.

FLAG OF ITALY ACTIVITY

HW

ConclusionUse National Programs as the framework for the projects Students learn the Planning Process Students learn about FCCLA even if they are not affiliated Integrating National Programs into the classroom can

increase chapter membership by including students in the program of work who are not generally active members of extracurricular organizations

And Remember, like in the Flag of Italy Activity, we can all take different paths, tailor our FCCLA involvement to our own personalities and still end up in the same place!
