Understanding Youth Behaviors - Staff and Volunteer Resources

In this lesson, 4-H staff and volunteers will examine potential scenarios they may experience while working with youth in 4-H and brainstorm how to help all youth be successful. The purpose of this activity is to think creatively about ways to intentionally support youth of all abilities. 

Being intentional about helping youth interact, understand and support those around them will improve the experience of all participants. 

Note: The lesson is tailored to a 4-H program experience but can be easily adapted to other youth program situations.

Lesson time: 25-45 minutes
