FCCLA Classroom Implementation Plan
Chapter Structure
One 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 Tool
Student 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 Tool
Visibility: 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.
Resources
The 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 assessment
Select 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.

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!
