ARE YOU?

AWESOME!

THEN YOU KNOW WHAT IT'S TIME FOR?

IT'S TIME FOR OUR MATH MISSION OF THE DAY.

SO, WE'VE GOT TO CHECK IN WITH OUR FRIEND SPARKLES TO SEE WHAT OUR MISSION IS TODAY.

LET'S SEE.

SPARKLES!

DO YOU HAVE A MISSION FOR US?

[gasps] I SEE IT RIGHT HERE.

LET'S SHARE IT WITH OUR FRIENDS.

HERE'S OUR MATH MISSION.

LET'S SEE.

THIS SAYS... WE CAN DO THIS, SUPER LEARNERS.

I KNOW WE CAN.

SO, BEFORE WE GET STARTED, WE'VE GOT TO PUT OUR CAPES ON.

DO YOU HAVE A CAPE YOU CAN PUT ON, OR AN INVISIBLE CAPE?

AWESOME.

WELL, I'M GOING TO GRAB MINE... AND PUT IT ON, SO WE CAN GET STARTED.

I LOVE MY SUPER CAPE.

WHEN I WEAR MY CAPE, I CAN DO ANY MATH SUPER THING, ESPECIALLY WITH YOUR HELP.

SO, LET'S DO IT.

LET'S GO.

ALRIGHT, FRIENDS.

FOR OUR FIRST MISSION, WE WILL...

SORT BY SIZE.

"TO SORT" IS TO GROUP THINGS TOGETHER, TO SHOW HOW THEY ARE THE SAME, AND HOW THEY ARE DIFFERENT.

TODAY, WE WILL SORT SHAPE SIZES.

WE'RE GOING TO SORT THEM INTO 2 GROUPS.

WE'RE GOING TO SORT IT INTO A BIG GROUP AND A SMALL GROUP.

WE WILL PUT THE BIG ONES HERE, AND THE SMALL ONES HERE.

CAN YOU HELP ME SORT THESE SHAPES?

AWESOME.

OKAY.

SO, WHEN I HOLD UP A SHAPE, PLEASE POINT.

IS IT BIG OR SMALL?

ALRIGHT, LET'S GET STARTED.

WOULD YOU SAY THAT THIS SHAPE IS BIG OR SMALL?

THAT'S RIGHT, IT'S BIG.

SO, WE'LL PUT IT RIGHT UP HERE.

ALRIGHT.

WHAT ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL SHAPE?

IS IT BIG OR SMALL, COMPARED TO THIS ONE?

THIS ONE'S SMALL, SO, WE'RE GOING TO PUT IT DOWN HERE.

AWESOME.

OOH, WHAT ABOUT THIS SHAPE?

IS IT BIG OR SMALL?

THAT'S RIGHT, THIS ONE IS BIG.

SO, WE'LL PUT HIM RIGHT UP HERE.

NOW, WHAT ABOUT...

THIS SHAPE?

IS IT BIG, OR IS IT SMALL?

IT'S SMALL, THAT'S RIGHT.

WE'LL PUT IT RIGHT HERE.

NOW, WHAT ABOUT... OOH, THIS ONE?

IS THIS ONE BIG, OR IS IT SMALL?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK IT'S A BIG SHAPE, TOO.

I'M GOING TO PUT IT RIGHT UP HERE WITH THE BIG ONES.

AND WHAT ABOUT THIS BEAUTIFUL SHAPE?

I LOVE STARS.

WHAT SIZE-- IS IT BIG OR SMALL?

THAT'S RIGHT, THIS ONE IS SMALL.

SO, WE'LL PUT IT RIGHT...

THERE.

ALRIGHT.

WHAT ABOUT THIS ONE?

IS IT BIG OR SMALL?

BIG!

THAT'S RIGHT!

GREAT JOB.

AND THEN, THE LAST ONE IS OUR SQUARE.

IS OUR SQUARE BIG OR SMALL?

IT'S SMALL, THAT'S RIGHT.

AWESOME JOB.

OKAY, WE DID IT.

WE SORTED THIS BY SIZE.

THESE SHAPES ARE DIFFERENT, BUT THEY ARE BIG.

AND THESE ARE DIFFERENT TOO, BUT THEY'RE ALL SMALL.

LET'S COUNT HOW MANY BIG SHAPES WE HAVE.

WE HAVE 4 BIG SHAPES.

AWESOME.

OKAY, LET'S COUNT HOW MANY SMALL ONES.

CAN YOU LOOK AT THIS AND GUESS HOW MANY SMALL SHAPES THERE ARE?

AWESOME!

THERE ARE 4.

THERE'S 1, 2, 3, 4.

WOO HOO!

YOU DID AWESOME.

NOW, SUPER LEARNERS, IT'S TIME FOR OUR NEXT MISSION, AND WE'RE GOING TO USE THE SAME SHAPES, BUT THIS TIME, WE'RE GOING TO SORT THEM EVEN FURTHER.

THEY'RE KIND OF BIG RIGHT NOW, SO WE WANT TO BREAK THEM DOWN SMALLER, INTO SMALLER GROUPS.

DO YOU THINK YOU CAN HELP ME?

AWESOME, THANK YOU.

SO, WE ARE GOING TO SORT NOW BY COLOR.

SO, I WANT RED HERE AND YELLOW HERE FOR OUR BIG SHAPES, AND THEN WE'LL DO THE SAME FOR OUR SMALL SHAPES.

WE'LL PUT RED HERE AND YELLOW HERE.

ALRIGHT?

FOLLOW MY LEAD.

YOU'LL SEE HOW WE'LL MAKE THESE GROUPS SMALLER.

SO, WE'LL START WITH OUR RED BIG ONE.

WE'LL PUT RED HERE.

NOW, WHAT COLOR DID WE SAY THIS IS?

YELLOW.

WE'LL PUT HIM HERE.

NOW, WHICH PILE WOULD THIS GO IN?

IS THIS ONE RED OR YELLOW?

IT'S RED, THAT'S RIGHT, SO WE'RE GOING TO PUT HIM RIGHT HERE, WITH OUR RED SHAPE.

AND OUR LAST ONE-- WHAT COLOR WOULD HE GO WITH, THE RED OR THE YELLOW?

THAT'S RIGHT, THIS ONE IS YELLOW.

SO, WE HAVE A BIG RED AND A BIG YELLOW.

AWESOME JOB.

NOW WE'RE GOING TO SORT THESE INTO SMALLER GROUPS, OKAY?

SO, THE SMALL ONES ARE GOING TO GET EVEN SMALLER.

SO, LIKE I SAID, WE'RE GOING TO PUT OUR RED HERE AND OUR YELLOW HERE.

SO, WHAT COLOR IS THIS SHAPE?

YEAH, IT'S YELLOW.

SO, WE'LL PUT HIM OVER HERE.

AND WHAT COLOR IS THIS ONE?

RED, THAT'S RIGHT.

SO, WE'LL PUT HIM HERE.

OH, I SEE ANOTHER RED ONE.

DOES HE BELONG OVER HERE?

NO, WE'RE GOING TO MOVE HIM TO THE RED SIDE.

AND WHAT COLOR IS THIS ONE?

MY FAVORITE, THE STAR.

[gasps] IT'S YELLOW.

IT GOES OVER HERE.

SO, NOW, WE HAVE 4 DIFFERENT GROUPS.

WE HAVE BIG RED, BIG YELLOW, SMALL RED, SMALL YELLOW.

WE HAVE 4 DIFFERENT GROUPS.

AWESOME JOB.

GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL, SUPER LEARNERS.

NOW THAT WE'VE SORTED ALL OF OUR SHAPES INTO SMALLER GROUPS, WE CAN CHECK IN TO SEE...

IF WE'RE FINISHED WITH OUR MISSION.

[gasps] LET'S CHECK.

MMM, SPARKLES, DO YOU THINK WE'VE COMPLETED THE MISSION?

[bubbles] LET'S TAKE A LOOK.

[gasps] YES!

"MISSION COMPLETE."

WE DID IT, SUPER LEARNERS.

WE DID EXACTLY WHAT WE NEEDED TO.

SO, TODAY-- LET'S REVIEW WHAT WE LOOKED AT.

TODAY, WE SORTED BY SIZE, AND WE SORTED BY COLOR.

YOU CAN PRACTICE SORTING OBJECTS TODAY TOO.

AND YOU CAN EVEN SHARE YOUR MATH POWERS BY SHOWING IT TO SOMEONE.

THANK YOU, SUPER LEARNERS, FOR GOING ON A MATH MISSION WITH ME TODAY.

AND A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO SPARKLES.

AWESOME.

REMEMBER, SUPER LEARNERS, YOU HAVE THE POWER TO BE SUPER AT MATH.

i¡ADIÓS!

BYE!

I HAVE SO MANY FRIENDS WHO ARE ARTISTS.

THEY ARE SUCH AMAZING PEOPLE.

CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO OF SOME ARTISTS WHO WILL REALLY INSPIRE YOU.

LET'S GET OUR REPERTOIRE OF SOUNDS.

I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE FOR YOU TO GET BACK.

♪ ♪ WELCOME BACK.

LET'S GET STARTED.

DO YOU LIKE COLLECTING BUTTONS?

I LOVE TO COLLECT BUTTONS.

TODAY, WE ARE GOING TO SOLVE A PROBLEM ABOUT BUTTONS.

MY FRIEND MOESHA LOVES TO COLLECT BUTTONS TOO.

IN A BIT, WE ARE GOING TO READ A MATHEMATICAL STORY ABOUT MOESHA AND HER BUTTONS.

BUT BEFORE WE READ HER STORY, LET'S EXERCISE OUR BRAIN AND GET IT READY TO DO SOME MATH WORK, SO WE CAN BE FIT MATHEMATICIANS.

WILL YOU JOIN ME?

LET'S GET ON OUR FEET, AND LET'S DO 5 ARM CIRCLES.

ARE YOU READY?

GREAT JOB.

NOW, LET'S DO 3 MORE ARM CIRCLES.

ARE YOU READY?

AWESOME.

SO, WE STARTED OUT WITH 5 ARM CIRCLES, AND THEN WE DID 3 MORE ARM CIRCLES.

SO, HOW MANY DID WE DO ALTOGETHER?

THAT'S RIGHT, WE DID 8, BECAUSE 5 ARM CIRCLES PLUS 3 ARM CIRCLES EQUALS 8 ARM CIRCLES.

NOW, LET'S STAY STANDING ON OUR FEET, AND LET'S DO 4 HOPS.

ARE YOU READY?

GOOD JOB.

LET'S DO 2 MORE HOPS.

ARE YOU READY?

SO, WE STARTED WITH 4 HOPS, AND THEN WE DID 2 MORE.

SO, WE DID 6 HOPS IN ALL, BECAUSE 4 PLUS 2 EQUALS 6.

WOW, I FEEL ENERGIZED AND READY TO FOCUS ON HELPING MOESHA FIGURE OUT ABOUT HER BUTTONS.

YOUR JOB TODAY AS WE READ OUR STORY IS TO FIGURE OUT HOW MANY BUTTONS MOESHA HAS.

LET'S READ A LITTLE TO FIND OUT ABOUT MOESHA AND HER BUTTONS.

WHAT ARE YOU PICTURING IN YOUR MIND?

HMM.

I'M PICTURING MOESHA WITH BUTTONS IN HER BAG, AND I'M ALSO PICTURING MOESHA PUTTING EVEN MORE BUTTONS INTO HER BAG.

HOW MANY BUTTONS DO YOU THINK MOESHA HAS AT FIRST IN HER BAG?

SHE MIGHT HAVE 10 OR 20 OR MAYBE EVEN 30 BUTTONS.

LET'S READ A LITTLE MORE ABOUT MOESHA.

WHAT DO WE KNOW NOW THAT WE DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE?

YES!

I HEARD SOMEONE SAY THAT NOW WE KNOW MOESHA HAS 56 BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

HOW MANY MORE BUTTONS DO YOU THINK SHE COULD PUT INTO HER BAG?

YES, MOESHA COULD PUT 20 OR 40 OR 50 BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

LET'S KEEP READING TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MOESHA AND HER BUTTONS.

SPLAT SAYS THAT NOW WE KNOW THAT MOESHA PUT 20 MORE BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU THINK WE COULD ASK ABOUT THIS MATH STORY?

THINK OF A QUESTION ABOUT MOESHA AND HER BUTTONS, AND THEN SHARE YOUR QUESTION WITH A TRUSTED ADULT OR STUFFED ANIMAL.

FINALLY, WHISPER IT TO SPLAT AND ME.

I'M LISTENING IN FOR THE WHISPERS.

I HEAR A WHISPER THAT SAYS WE COULD ASK... THAT'S A REALLY GREAT QUESTION.

LET'S READ A LITTLE MORE ABOUT MOESHA.

HOW MANY BUTTONS ARE IN HER BAG NOW?

WHAT IS THE QUESTION IN THE STORY?

YES, YOU ARE RIGHT.

THE QUESTION IS ASKING HOW MANY BUTTONS MOESHA HAS IN HER BAG.

DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION?

YES, YOU DO HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED.

I WANT YOU TO THINK ABOUT HOW YOU CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

TELL A TRUSTED ADULT OR STUFFED ANIMAL HOW YOU WOULD SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

WELL, SPLAT ALWAYS HELPS ME SOLVE MATH PROBLEMS, AND HE JUST TOLD ME A WAY THAT I CAN SOLVE THIS ONE.

SPLAT SAYS WE CAN USE A TOOL CALLED A HUNDREDS CHART.

LET'S TRY IT OUT.

WE CAN SOLVE THIS PROBLEM BY USING A HUNDREDS CHART.

ON THE HUNDREDS CHART, I WILL START AT 56.

56 IS THE NUMBER OF BUTTONS THAT MOESHA FIRST HAS IN HER BAG.

CAN YOU POINT TO 56?

GREAT JOB.

I KNOW THAT SHE PUT 20 MORE BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

SO, FIRST, I'M GOING TO JUMP DOWN ONE ROW TO 66.

IF I JUMP A WHOLE ROW, THEN THAT MEANS I MOVED 10 SPACES.

THAT MEANS I ADDED 10 MORE.

WE CAN WRITE WHAT WE DID ON THE HUNDRED CHART AS AN EQUATION.

56 BUTTONS PLUS 10 MORE IS 66 BUTTONS.

ARE WE FINISHED SOLVING OUR PROBLEM ON THE HUNDREDS CHAT?

NO!

HOW MANY MORE DO WE NEED TO JUMP?

YES, YOU ARE RIGHT.

WE HAVE TO JUMP 10 MORE, BECAUSE WE KNOW MOESHA PUT 20 BUTTONS IN HER BAG, AND WE ONLY COUNTED FOR 10 BUTTONS WITH OUR FIRST JUMP ON THE HUNDREDS CHART.

WATCH AS I JUMP DOWN 1 MORE ROW-- THAT'S A WHOLE OTHER 10 SPACES-- AND LAND ON 76.

SO, I LANDED ON 76, WHICH MEANS MOESHA HAS 76 BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

MOESHA STARTED WITH 56 BUTTONS IN HER BAG.

THEN, WE JUMPED 10 SPACES AND 10 MORE SPACES, UNTIL WE JUMPED 20 SPACES IN ALL, AND WE LANDED ON 76.

SO, 56 BUTTONS PLUS 20 BUTTONS EQUALS 76.

CAN YOU WRITE THAT EQUATION?

WRITE THAT DOWN, AND SHOW IT TO SPLAT AND ME.

GOOD WORK!

WE FIGURED OUT THAT THERE ARE 76 BUTTONS IN MOESHA'S BAG.

GREAT JOB USING THE HUNDREDS BOARD TO COUNT BY TENS.

IN A BIT, WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT ANOTHER WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

BUT BEFORE WE DO, LET'S TAKE A MATH MOVEMENT BREAK.

I WOULD LIKE TO INVITE YOU TO STAND UP FOR THIS MOVEMENT BREAK.

LET'S EXERCISE USING OUR NUMBERS AND COUNTING DOWN FROM 10 FOR INSPIRATION.

ARE YOU READY TO MOVE YOUR BODY TO EACH NUMBER?

OKAY, LET'S GO!

FIRST, WE'LL DO 10 TWISTS.

NEXT, WE'LL DO 9 HOPS.

NOW, WE'LL DO 8 ARM CIRCLES.

NEXT IS 7 KNEE BENDS.

OKAY, LET'S GET READY FOR 6 ARM STRETCHES.

NOW, LET'S GET READY FOR 5 KNEE RAISES.

LET'S DO 4 SIDE BENDS.

LET'S DO 3 TOE RAISES.

LET'S DO 2 HEAD NODS.

AND FINALLY, LET'S DO 1 BIG JUMP.

THAT WAS FUN, EXERCISING OUR MATH MINDS AND COUNTING DOWN FROM 10.

NOW THAT WE'RE ENERGIZED, SPLAT AND I WILL SHOW YOU ANOTHER WAY TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEM.

REMEMBER, OUR PROBLEM IS... HOW MANY BUTTONS ARE IN HER BAG IN ALL?

SPLAT SAYS ANOTHER WAY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM WOULD BE TO USE AN OPEN NUMBER LINE.

YOU CAN DRAW A NUMBER LINE ON YOUR PAPER, AS I DRAW MINE UP HERE.

FIRST, WE'LL DRAW A LINE ON OUR PAPER AND PUT 56 AT THE BEGINNING, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT MOESHA IS BEGINNING WITH 56 BUTTONS.

WE KNOW THAT MOESHA ADDED 20 MORE BUTTONS TO HER COLLECTION.

BUT THAT'S A LOT TO JUMP AT ONCE.

HMM.

I KNOW.

WE COULD BREAK APART THE 20 AND JUMP 10 AND THEN ANOTHER 10 INSTEAD, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT 10 AND 10 EQUALS 20.

SO, LET'S START AT 56 AND JUMP 10.

BE SURE TO SHOW YOUR JUMP ON THE NUMBER LINE AND WRITE "+10" ABOVE IT.

SO, WE LANDED ON 66 ON THE NUMBER LINE.

NOW, LET'S JUMP 10 MORE.

SHOW YOUR JUMP AND WRITE "+10" ON TOP.

NOW WE'VE LANDED AT 76, BECAUSE 10 MORE THAN 66 IS 76.

SO, WE BEGAN AT 56, AND THEN WE JUMPED 10 TO 66, AND THEN WE JUMPED ANOTHER 10 TO 76.

THAT TELLS US THAT MOESHA HAD 76 BUTTONS IN HER COLLECTION.

AN EQUATION THAT MATCHES OUR NUMBER LINE COULD LOOK LIKE THIS.

YOU DID SUCH A GREAT JOB ABOUT THINKING ABOUT MORE THAN ONE WAY TO SOLVE A PROBLEM.

BEFORE SPLAT AND I GO TODAY, WE WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU TALK ABOUT OUR LEARNING.

I HAVE THESE SENTENCE STARTERS TO HELP US TALK ABOUT OUR MATH.

THEY SAY...

SO, IF I WERE DOING THIS, I MIGHT SAY, "TODAY, I LEARNED HOW TO SOLVE A MATH STORY PROBLEM WITH 2-DIGIT NUMBERS."

"I CAN USE A HUNDREDS BOARD OR AN OPEN NUMBER LINE TO SOLVE 2-DIGIT EQUATIONS."

NOW, IT'S YOUR TURN.

READ WITH ME, AND FINISH THESE SENTENCES.

OKAY, OUR NEXT SENTENCE...

FANTASTIC JOB TALKING ABOUT YOUR LEARNINGS FROM TODAY.

FRIENDS, SPLAT AND I HAVE TO GO NOW.

BUT YOU DID SUCH A GREAT JOB OF SOLVING THE MATHEMATICAL STORY OF HOW MANY BUTTONS MOESHA HAD.

WE USED THE HUNDREDS CHART AND AN OPEN NUMBER LINE TO HELP US ADD TENS TO FIGURE OUT HOW MANY BUTTONS MOESHA HAD.

SPLAT AND I HOPE YOU ENJOYED TODAY, AND WE HOPE WE GET TO SEE YOU AGAIN SOON.

[beeps] HI, EVERYBODY.

MY NAME IS KAT.

I'M ONE OF THE AVICULTURISTS HERE AT SYLVAN HEIGHTS BIRD PARK.

AND TODAY, I HAVE WITH ME MOONLIGHT.

MOONLIGHT IS KNOWN AS A WHITE-FACED WHISTLING DUCK.

AND THEY GET THEIR NAME QUITE LITERALLY IN THE WILD.

WHEN THESE BIRDS ARE IN LARGE FLOCKS, THEY OFTEN COMMUNICATE EACH OTHER WITH A VERY SPECIFIC SOUND THAT VERY MUCH RESEMBLES A WHISTLING SOUND.

AND SHE IS KIND OF MAKING ONE RIGHT NOW.

IT'S A LITTLE QUIETER VERSION OF IT, SO IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO HEAR.

BUT THEY CAN BE HEARD QUITE A DISTANCE AWAY.

THEY COULD DO IT TO FIND FAMILY MEMBERS, FIND POTENTIAL MATES, OR JUST, OVERALL, JUST SAY, "HEY, I'M HERE."

[laughs] THESE BIRDS ARE NOT NATIVE TO NORTH AMERICA, BUT THEY ARE FOUND ON 2 SEPARATE CONTINENTS.

THEY ARE FOUND IN SOUTH AMERICA AS WELL AS AFRICA.

NOW, DESPITE BEING SEPARATED BY THE ATLANTIC OCEAN, BOTH POPULATIONS OF WHITE-FACED WHISTLING DUCKS ARE GENETICALLY IDENTICAL.

AND THAT'S KIND OF AN AMAZING FEAT, WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

NORMALLY, WHEN ANIMALS ARE SEPARATED BY SUCH A VAST OBSTACLE SUCH AS AN OCEAN OR A LARGE MOUNTAIN RANGE, YOU DO TYPICALLY SEE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE 2 POPULATIONS OF ANIMALS, WHETHER IT'S ONE'S LARGER, SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT COLORS, OR THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT FOR THE WHITE-FACED WHISTLING DUCK, NOTHING REALLY HAS CHANGED.

AND SO, BOTH POPULATIONS ARE CONSIDERED THE SAME.

NOW, JUST LIKE MOST WATERFOWL, THESE BIRDS ARE FOUND IN SWAMPY MARSH AREAS.

THEY CAN ALSO BE FOUND ON SOME GRASSLANDS AS WELL.

ANOTHER CHARACTERISTIC THAT DEFINES THEM AS A WHISTLING DUCK IS THEIR LONG FEET.

SO, SHE'S KIND OF SHOWING THEM OFF RIGHT NOW.

WHISTLING DUCKS HAVE LONG FEET TO HELP THEM PERCH EASIER ON TALLER TREE BRANCHES.

SO, THEY CAN PERCH A LITTLE MORE BALANCED THAN SOME OF THEIR WATERFOWL COUSINS, SUCH AS A NORTH AMERICAN WOOD DUCK.

THEY HAVE VERY STUMPY LEGS COMPARED TO THESE LITTLE GUYS.

AND EVEN THOUGH THEY STILL CAN PERCH ON TREES, THE WHISTLING DUCK FAMILY HAS AN EASIER TIME DOING SO.

ALRIGHT, EVERYBODY, I HOPE YOU HAD FUN LEARNING ABOUT THE WHITE-FACED WHISTLING DUCKS.

WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

WELL, THAT WAS GREAT.

WE GOT THE BRAIN JUICES FLOWING, AND WE'RE READY FOR ANYTHING.

I'M GRATEFUL FOR MATH, BECAUSE IT CHALLENGES ME TO USE A LOT OF MY BRAIN.

AND I'M ALSO GRATEFUL TO BE LEARNING WITH YOU.
