The Leafy Greens Lesson Plans

Student Introduction

Cabbagesaurus Hi, Boys and Girls! My name is Cabbagesaurus and I am the team captain of the All-Star Cancer Fighting Team -- the CRUCIFEROUS CRUSADERS. My strength is in the high mineral and vitamin content which you can get from cabbage. CRUCIFEROUS is a big word that stands for the leafy green vegetables, cabbage, spinach, broccoli, kale, red and green lettuce. Our team is very important because we can help you have a healthy diet, AND we can help you lower the risk of certain types of cancer.

Let me introduce to you the other members of our All-Star Team:

Broccadactyl
First is our pitcher, Broccadactyl. He has helped carry the CRUSADERS to world championship because his power source is the fiber which comes from broccoli.
Lettuceratops

May I introduce the Red and Green Lettuceratops. They play 1st and 2nd base. The healthy, low calorie content of lettuce makes them a team favorite.
Kal-O-Don

Our right fielder is the fantastic Kal-O-Don. He is a versatile team player and has lots of calcium from kale which gives him his strong right arm.
Spinachraptor

And say hello to Spinachraptor. He is our power hitter. He is known throughout the world for the power that comes from spinach.

Altogether, the mighty CRUCIFEROUS CRUSADERS Team can help you have a healthy body and fight cancer. So, won't you join our team and be on your way to better health?
