Breakfast – Anytime, Anywhere The Faye Webb FUTP 60 Student Team decided on this play, as they felt it was important to educate their fellow students about the importance of breakfast. They worked together to develop a lesson to present during the school's daily Breakfast in the Classroom time. The lesson included MyPlate education, the importance of dairy over other beverages and FUTP 60. They targeted the 5th grade classes and presented each morning over 5 days, in a different classroom each day. Using the MyPlate – A Yummy Curriculum they presented the "We Are What We Eat Lesson". This lesson introduces students to MyPlate and eating foods from the 5 food groups. They utilized the "Think Your Drink" lesson plans provided by Dairy MAX to educate students on the sugar content of beverages They presented about the FUTP 60 program and the importance of being physically active 60 minutes every day.  After the presentation students were asked to take the pledge and sign up for the program.

How did students and adults work together as a team?
