This assembly is:

A four-person musical theatre piece with live piano accompaniment, singing, set and costumes.
Highly interactive with the audience throughout the 40 minute presentation.
Appropriate for grades K-5.
Complimentary to the Network for a Healthy CA curriculum.
Helpful in emphasizing the importance of good nutrition in a fun and memorable way.

This assembly encourages the students to:

Make half of their grains whole grain.
Eat more fruits and vegetables of varying color, especially dark green leafy and orange.
Start their day by eating a healthy breakfast.
Be active every day and use MyPlate to help with making healthy food choices. (www.myplate.gov).

Indy Jo and the Template of Health is:

Indy and Sugah go on an adventure, Sugah is now reformed and goes by the name Sugahfree. They meet some brand new characters: Chef Mangez DeMeals, Otto Time, EZ Wayout, Unna Ware and a surprise character at the end of the show. Each of these characters represent excuses we make to not eat a healthy breakfast. With the help of the student audience, Indy and Sugahfree battle these characters, solve riddles and finally, build the TemPLATE of Health, which is the new **MyPlate visual. The Network message is strongly emphasized along with the importance of eating a healthy breakfast, being active and eating more fruits and vegetables.

Adventure! Excitement! Songs! Laughs!
And learning about good eats! These shows have it all!

**MyPlate replaced the Pyramid of Food or MyPyramid in June, 2011. Both Indy Jo and the TemPLATE of Health and Mission Nutrition have been updated to reflect this new visual.
