(upbeat music) - Hello everyone and welcome to Teaching in Room 9.

- So come on in, take a seat and let's get started.

(upbeat music) - Good job.

Now, go ahead and touch your throat right here and see how they feel.

- Hello boys and girls, welcome to Teaching in Room 9.

- Falcons are built for speed, so she doesn't have very wide wings.

- And the numbers get bigger as we go across to the right.

- I just want you to start with saying hello.

Remember, you got this.

- All righty, are you ready to learn?

Let's go!

Welcome back to Teaching in Room 9, the region's largest classroom.

I am Dr.

Sanders, and we're in our amazing classroom where you can go anywhere and be anything.

But like, what do I always say?

You know what I, that's right.

It doesn't matter if you're two or 102, we will have some fun.

F-U-N, fun.

We will have some fun while learning.

Before we get on to our adventures, I would like to give some shout outs to some of my friends.

My first friend today is Rashad.

Hello, Rashad.

How are you doing today?

Excellent.

Let's spell Rashad.

Capital R-A-S-H-A-D.

R-A-S-H-A-D.

Hi, Rashad.

My next name today is Chosen.

Hello, Chosen.

How are you doing today?

Excellent.

Let's spell Chosen.

Capital C-H-O-S-E-N.

C-H-O-S-E-N.

And my last name that we have a shout out today is Zayden.

Hello, Zayden.

How are you doing today?

Excellent.

Zayden.

What letter does Zayden start with?

Yes, a capital Z. Let's spell Zayden, capital Z-A-Y-D-E-N.

Z-A-Y-D-E-N.

Now, if I didn't give you a shout out, just please remember, you are my friend and I am so happy that you are watching.

And you know what time it is?

Yes, that's right.

It is time to get into our adventure.

So are you ready?

Then let's go!

(applause) (school bell ringing) Hi, Glenn.

How was your night last night?

(sad trombone) Uh-huh.

(sad trombone) Oh, no!

(sad trombone) Really?

(sad trombone) Friends, you wouldn't believe the story that Glenn just told me.

He was home last night making macaroni and cheese, and the pan caught on fire.

(farting) Fortunately, his older brother Al was there, and Al helped him put out the fire and everything's okay.

(whistles) Glenn, you had an emergency.

An emergency can be scary.

It's a situation where somebody needs help because there's a fire or somebody's really sick or hurt so that they can't talk or they can't move.

It's important to know what to do in an emergency.

One thing that we can do in an emergency is call 911 on the phone.

There are people like police, like firefighters, like paramedics who come and help us when we have an emergency.

When we call 911 on the phone, that lets those people know that we need them to come because we need their help.

I can show you how to dial 911 on the phone.

Would you like me to show you that, Glenn?

It's pretty easy.

Three numbers, 911.

Let's do it again.

Ready?

911.

One more time.

911.

When you call 911, someone will ask you questions about your emergency.

And it's important to answer those questions the best you can and stay calm.

If you can't get to a phone and call 911, you can ask a grownup you trust to help you call 911.

So remember, emergencies can be scary, but we have tools to help us.

We can call 911 on the phone, or we can ask a grownup to help us.

And you're ready for school.

Good day, animal lovers.

Welcome back to Teaching in Room 9, our region's largest classroom.

I'm Ms.

Knarr, and I will be your zookeeper today that is going to observe all the different ways to help us learn to read.

Today, our learning is going to focus on syllables and breaking apart a word into the different beats built around a vowel.

Let's go ahead and sing a song to help us practice.

♪ Let's learn how to read by clapping out the syllables.

Syllables are beats in words.

Syllables each have a vowel.

Syllables are beats in words.

They help us break apart new words.

Let's learn how to read.

Let's learn how to read.

Let's learn how to read by clapping out the syllables.

Nice job, friends.

We're gonna go ahead and do an exercise to help us warm up our brains by clapping out the syllables or beats in words.

Let's go ahead and try one here together.

Say the word insect.

Nice.

Now go ahead and clap the syllables.

Insect.

How many syllables do we have?

Yeah, two syllables in that one.

Let's try another one.

Say the word puppet.

Clap the syllables.

Puppet.

Nice job, two again.

Say the word pencil.

Clap the syllables.

Pencil.

Nice.

Say the word computer.

Clap the syllables.

Com-pu-ter.

Nice job.

One more.

Say the word caterpillar.

Clap those syllables.

Cat-er-pillar.

Whoa, that one had four syllables in it.

Nice job.

All right, now that our brain is nice and warmed up practicing those syllables, we are going to use our chart here with our zoo that has cages with one, two, and three syllables.

So you're going to clap them along with me.

All right, what do we see here?

Yeah, penguin.

Go ahead and clap the syllables.

Peng-guen.

Which cage should I put it in?

Yeah, the second one.

Two syllables.

Let's try another one.

What do we see here?

Good.

Clap the syllables in.

Flamingo.

Flamingo.

Which one should I put it in this time?

Yeah, three syllables in flamingo.

Let's try another one.

What is this a picture of?

Yeah, a bird.

Clap the syllables.

Bird just won that time.

Next up, what animal is this?

Yeah, zebra.

Go ahead and clap it with me.

Ze-bra.

Two syllables.

Very good.

All right, what do we see here?

Yeah, kangaroo.

Go ahead and clap it out.

Kang-ga-roo.

Three syllables that time.

All right, what do we see here?

Yeah, a snake.

Clap it out.

Snake.

Just one talking vowel.

So, going on one.

Let's do one more.

What do we see here?

Yeah, lion.

Go ahead and clap it out.

Lion.

Nice.

Two syllables for that.

I wonder how many other animals you can think of and practice clapping those syllables.

Let's go ahead and sing our song one more time.

♪ Let's learn how to read Nice job learners.

Go ahead and keep practicing at home.

Good day, animal lovers.

(upbeat music) - Hi everyone, and welcome to Movement in Room 9.

My name is Ms.

St.

Louis, and I'm so excited that you're here to join us today.

So stand up, get on your feet, and let's get ready to move.

Today, we're going to be using this drum to help us move different parts of our body through self-expression.

That means that you get to do any kind of movement that you want.

So today we're gonna start by moving different parts of our body to different sounds.

Some sounds might be slow like this.

[drumming] And some sounds might be really fast like this.

So today we're going to practice moving those different parts as we get into the beat of the music.

So let's start with our head.

We might move our head really slow like this or really fast and crazy.

Are you ready?

Listen to the beat.

Let's start slow.

And speed it up.

Now Now this time, I want you to listen 'cause the beat might change and I'm not gonna tell you.

Are you ready?

We'll start slow though.

(upbeat music) Nice stop.

Now we're gonna move on to our arms and we're gonna move our arms slow or fast.

And you can move them as big as you want or as small as you want in any way that you like.

You're ready?

(upbeat music) And speed it up.

Slowing down.

Speeding back.

(upbeat music) Very nice.

You guys are doing excellent with your movement.

Let's move on down to our legs.

So now I want you to practice with your legs.

They can be small movements or big movements as we move slow and fast.

Are you ready?

Let's start fast this time.

So get those legs ready to move.

And slow it down.

And speed it up.

Now listen because it's gonna change.

(drumming) Good job.

(drumming) Excellent job.

Now this time I want you to get your entire body into it.

From your head to your toes, moving everything in every way that you like.

Are you ready?

Let's start slow.

(drumming) Ooh, I hear it picking up.

(drumming) Ooh, good freeze on that stop.

Now listen up, 'cause I'm not gonna tell you when the beat changes.

(drumming) Very nice.

I hope that you guys had so much fun joining in with us today.

We'll see you back here next time in Room 9 as we keep our bodies moving.

Bye everyone.

(upbeat music) - Welcome back, boys and girls.

Look who we have in the building, Mr.

Bare Hands Beran.

Our most amazing wildlife expert.

- And I brought Godiva to the classroom today.

- Ooh, Godiva sounds so exotic.

- Yeah, she's really wiggly today too.

- Uh, that's okay.

Tell me a little bit about Godiva.

- So Godiva is a red-tailed boa.

- Red-tailed boa.

- A red-tailed boa.

- She's not, let me see her tail.

It doesn't look very red to me.

- That's because she has a special gene and every time she sheds, she gets blacker and she loses her pattern.

- Oh man, but she looks amazing and shiny.

- Yes, and iridescent.

- Iridescent, say that big word, boys and girls.

- Iridescent.

- Now, what type of animal is this red-tailed boar?

- Godiva is a reptile, which means she's cold-blooded and she's got scales and she eats meat.

- She eats meat.

I know eating meat makes her, she might be a reptile, but she's also a carnivore.

- That's right.

- She's a carnivore.

What type of meat does she like to eat?

So particularly, she likes rodents, any kind of rodent.

In South America, she actually eats a lot of guinea pigs.

Oh.

Oh.

How long will Godiva get?

So typical red-tailed boas get around 10 feet full grown.

But most of the time, I see them, you know, eight feet or so.

OK.

And tell me, how do they hunt?

Well, these guys are typically ambush predators, which means they'll follow the trail of a rodent somewhere, and then they'll set up shop.

And when that rodent runs by, they reach out, grab it, wrap it up, and they constrict it, because these are constrictors.

OK, that means they get really tight together.

Really, really tight.

OK.

And then she swallows it whole.

Whole.

She swallows it whole.

Yeah, she has adjustable jaws.

And so her mouth can open up this big.

So she can eat things that big around.

- Does it, do you mind me trying to hold Godiva?

I know she's a little wiggly.

- She's a little wiggly, but just wiggle around with her.

- All righty.

And what I heard was that Godiva can actually hold her breath for a long time.

- Yeah, so red-tailed boas are good swimmers, and they do like to hunt around water edges in South America, where they're from.

They can hold their breath quite a while.

Like if they're actively hunting, 15, 20 minutes, but if they're resting and hiding, up to an hour.

- Wow.

Boys and girls, how long can you hold your breath?

- Hmm, two minutes, maybe.

- Maybe.

I got about 30 seconds.

But that's okay.

And Godiva says she's kind of cold.

Why does she feel cold to the skin?

So reptiles, especially boas, are cold-blooded.

And so that means that they're going to be whatever temperature their surrounding is.

And where she was being kept recently was about 72 degrees.

And since we are about, what, 98 degrees, she's going to feel cold to us.

Okay.

And then if I set her on my neck for a long time, she probably would start feeling just like me.

Yep.

And if she was out in the sunshine, that black coloration would absorb the sun rays.

Oh, okay.

And she would store up that solar energy in her body.

All right.

Now I wonder, like she's very calm around my neck right now.

So I really wonder, is Godiva good as a pet?

So red-tailed boas in general do make good pets, especially if you like snakes and if you like reptiles.

The red-tailed boas are very hardy, they're easy to keep, they're very forgiving in their husbandry or the way you keep them in it.

So they do make good pets.

And I have one more question.

One more.

How are their babies made?

Are they eggs or do they just come out squiggling all over the place?

So red-tailed boas definitely have their babies born live and so they are squiggly and wiggly when they come out.

Alrighty.

Well, Mr.

Bare Hands, once again, thank you for bringing this amazing Godiva and thank you for being with us today.

Thank you.

Are you ready for some more learning?

See you in a bit.

One, two, three, four, five, six.

- Hello, boys and girls.

Welcome to Teaching in Room 9.

You're in math class with Mrs.

Ray.

I'm so glad you're here today because today's lesson is all about place value.

So come on in, take a seat, and let's get started.

Now, you know we always start with a question.

What is place value and why do we need to know it?

Well, every number has value, but place value teaches us that that value can change depending on the location of the number.

And that is very important for you to know.

So today you and I are gonna take a little trip through place value.

We are going to cover ones, tens, and maybe even the hundreds place.

Are you ready?

Let's go.

Now, I am going to start with the number one.

We're gonna do something easy first, okay?

The number one just represents one.

We count by ones.

I know you know how to count by ones.

And there's nothing more to it.

There are no other digits with this number.

Now, how do we represent that number?

Well, we are going to use one of these small squares.

This represents one.

Now, if I want to change that from the ones place to the tens place, then boys and girls, the whole value changes.

Let's take a look.

Now we are in the tens place and there are no ones to be seen.

So we can get rid of this.

Let's add a zero.

Okay, so we have one tens, which means we need to count by tens one time.

Can you do that with me?

Here we go.

Ten.

Very good.

Now, how do we represent that?

Well, we are going to use this one instead.

You see, this represents 10.

You don't have to bother with counting by ones all the way up to 10.

They put it together for you.

There are 10 of these inside this one.

See?

Now, we are in the tens place.

But what if we change it just one more time?

If we go from the tens place to the hundreds place?

Let's see what that looks like.

There are no more tens, so we get rid of that.

Now we are in the hundreds place and we have 100.

Now how do we show that with place value?

We've got to break out the big boys for this one, boys and girls, we use this.

Why?

Well, there are 10 of these inside of one of these big squares.

This represents 100.

So now you have seen the number one move from the ones place to the tens place all the way over here to the hundreds place.

And if we had time, and if I had a bigger board, we could go from the hundreds to the thousands to the millions and more.

But we don't have that kind of time today.

But I hope you try it on your own.

Boys and girls, thank you so much for joining me today.

I will see you next time, boys and girls.

Bye.

Hola muchachos.

Hello boys and girls.

I'm Senor Johnson.

Welcome to Teaching in Room 9, the region's largest classroom.

Today we're going to talk about our emotions, about expressing how we feel to other people.

In Spanish, we would say, "Yo estoy," which means I am.

Yo estoy.

We're going to learn three different ways to express how we feel.

The first one is, when things are going great for us, we would say, "Yo estoy feliz."

I am happy.

Yo estoy feliz.

I'm happy.

But if we're not having a good day, we would say something different in Spanish.

We would say, "Yo estoy triste."

Yo estoy triste, which means I am sad.

But after we've had a long day, we've been playing with all of our friends and running around, we get tired.

So to tell others that we are tired, we say, "Yo estoy cansado."

Or if you're a girl, you would say, "Yo estoy cansada."

So to recap, I'm going to give you situations that I want you to tell me.

Would you say, "Yo estoy feliz," "Yo estoy triste," or "Yo estoy cansado" or "cansada."

You just blew out the candles on your birthday cake.

Which one would you use?

I would use, "Yo estoy feliz," because I know that I'm going to get something really awesome.

So, "Yo," "I," "estoy," "am," "feliz," "triste," "cansado."

Those are the words that we use to express how we feel in Spanish.

Rum-bum-bum-bum.

Learning Spanish is fun.

Adios.

- Great day, everybody.

This is Candice with Khaos, and I wanna introduce you to my friends, the Khaos Kids.

Khaos Kids are just like you.

They have feelings just like anybody else, but they've learned to keep healing and overcoming struggles.

And this is what they say so that they can remember.

They say, "My feelings are my feelings.

They are mine to have.

I can't feel happy, angry, silly, confused, grumpy, or sad.

I would rather feel excited, but sometimes I feel blue.

But no matter how I feel, I shouldn't hurt me or you 'cause I'm a Khaos Kid."

They keep healing and overcoming struggles, and you can too.

Air hugs and cyber kisses.

- Welcome back to our classroom.

How were your adventures today?

Oh, were they fun?

Okay, okay.

Can you tell me about your favorite adventure?

(upbeat music) Ooh, yes.

That sounds like fun.

All right, all right.

Now it's time for what?

That's right.

It's time for my little lesson.

So are you ready?

Today, what do I have?

What do you see?

Yes, a flower pot.

We're going to start a flower or a plant, and it's actually cucumbers.

Everybody say cucumbers.

Is cucumber a fruit or vegetable?

Yes, it's a vegetable.

It's a vegetable.

So to make a plant, you got to have a what?

A pot.

You got to have a pot.

And then what's inside the pot?

What's that?

Dirt.

Dirt or soil or potting mix.

And then you need what?

Some water and some light.

And you need some-- you need a what?

Seed or seeds.

You need more than one seed.

OK, the first thing we do is I pour our soil into our pot, look around, make sure it's ready to go.

And then I'm going to take some seeds.

I'm going to take some seeds.

I'm going to take my finger and make a couple divots in there.

And then I'm going to put a couple seeds in each hole.

And then I'm going to cover it up and put some what?

Water!

And then hopefully in a couple weeks it'll be ready to go outside.

But guess what?

It is time for us to get out of Room 9.

Let's spell our favorite word.

Nine.

N-I-N-E.

Thank you for being in Room 9.

Bye-bye.
