Colors of the FFA The colors of the FFA are National Blue and Corn Gold. Blue reminds us that the FFA is a national organization. Gold reminds us that corn is a native American crop grown in every state.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The FFA emblem was designed with much thought and meaning. It is made up of five symbols.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem A cross-section of an ear of corn. The symbol of corn represents our common agricultural interests, is native to America, and is grown in every state.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The rising sun. It symbolizes progress in agriculture and the confidence that FFA members have in the future.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The plow. It is a symbol of labor and tillage of the soil.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The owl. It symbolizes wisdom and knowledge.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The eagle. This is symbolic of the national scope of the FFA.

Symbols of the FFA Emblem The words “Agricultural Education“ surround the letters “FFA.” This tells us that FFA is an important part of agriculture and agribusiness programs.

Some Guidelines For Wearing the FFA Jacket 1. It should only be worn by FFA members. 2. It should always be clean and neat. 3. It should only have the names of the state association and local chapter on the back. Individual’s name and office of honor should be on the front.

Some Guidelines For Wearing the FFA Jacket 4. It should be worn with the zipper fastened to all official FFA occasions. 5. It should not be worn with apparel bearing the insignia of other organizations. 6. It should be worn with no more than three medals beneath the individual’s name.

The FFA Creed I believe in the future of agriculture, with a faith born not of words but of deeds achievements won by the present and past generations of agriculturists; in the promise of better days through better ways, even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the struggles of former years.

The FFA Creed I believe that to live and work on a good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an inborn fond-ness for those associations which, even in hours of discouragement, I cannot deny.

The FFA Creed I believe in leadership from ourselves and respect from others. I believe in my own ability to work efficiently and think clearly, with such knowledge and skill as I can secure, and in the ability of progressive ag-riculturists to serve our own and the public interest in producing and marketing the product of our toil.

The FFA Creed I believe in less dependence on begging and more power in bargaining; in the life abundant and enough honest wealth to help make it so for others as well as myself; in less need for charity and more of it when needed; in being happy myself and paying square with those whose happiness depends upon me.

The FFA Creed I believe that American agriculture can and will hold true to the best traditions of our national life and that I can exert an influence in my home and community which will stand solid for my part in that inspiring task.

Different ideas for having student memorize the creed.

One way to get students to speak, especially with the Creed, is to allow them to imitate another speaker. Some examples of people students may do are Braveheart (Mel Gibson), Jesse Jackson, Gen. George Patton. They will actually do a great job with it because they have to pay attention to not only the words but the emphasis they placed on them along with the timing of each line.

If you have a student who is just too terrified to speak in front of the class any length of time. Have them give the first paragraph of the creed facing the chalk board and not the class. The next week have them give all but one line facing the chalk board, allow them to pick which line they feel most comfortable facing the class and repeating. The idea is to add a line for every paragraph until by the last paragraph they should face the class. By the third week they should do the whole paragraph facing the class.

When teaching the Creed, allow the students to use notes in their first attempts in front of class. However, the notes have to be written in their own hieroglyphics. One requirement is that they had to be their own creation and must be symbols that do not include numbers or letters. You should find the students working hard trying to come up with the symbols to match the words, they should end up repeating the paragraphs to themselves so many times they memorize it without realizing they are. Most students should end up not even using the hieroglyphs as notes because it will slow them down while speaking.

Draw a cartoon (six frames including an introduction) that captures the essential message of each paragraph of the creed.

Have students write a rap of their own version of assigned paragraphs of the creed. Then, have them practice and present their versions of the creed. You can recorded this and make an actual movie of the creed rap. This is good because the students will able to put the creed into words, they understand and when they presented the actual creed in front of the class they knew what they were saying and talking about.
