(upbeat music) - Hey boy, I like this hat backwards.

Hey boys and girls, how're you doing?

Good morning and welcome back to the region's largest summer camp.

It is Dr. Sanders and I'm here to teach a little ELA and math to all of my pre-K and K campers.

But like I always say, it doesn't matter if you're two or 102, you can have some fun F-U-N, fun.

We will have some fun, excuse me, I just burped.

And also we will learn something.

And this week we're learning all about space.

So let's take a look at our journey to space, our objectives and ELA will ask questions and respond to relevant questions, and Math you will make comparisons of numbers or, and or sizes or shapes.

All right, let's take this hat off so we can get started.

We're gonna start today with the little camping, with little camping in Room Nine camp style.

Here we go.

We're gonna count from zero to 100 by twos, zero to 100 by twos.

I'm gonna say then you're gonna say, here we go.

Zero - [Student] Two, - Four, - [Student] Six, - Eight.

- [Student] 10, - 12, - [Student] 14, - 16, - [Student] 18 - 20 - [Student] 22, - 24 - [Student] 26, - 28, - [Student] 30 - 32 - [Student] 34 - 36 - [Student] 38 - 40 - [Student] 42 - 44 - [Student] 46 - 48 - [Student] 50 - 52 - [Student] 54 - 56 - [Student] 58 - 60 - [Student] 62 - 64 - [Student] 66 - 68 - [Student] 70 - 72 - [Student] 74 - 76 - [Student] 78 - 80 - [Student] 82 - 84 - [Student] 86 - 88 - [Student] 90 - 92 - [Student] 94 - 96 - [Student] 98.

- 100, now we're gonna count from zero to 30 by threes.

We're gonna do this together, here we go.

Zero, three, six, nine, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30.

Let's try that one again.

Zero, three, six, nine, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30.

Now we're gonna count from zero to 100 by 10.

Me first then you here we go zero, - [Student] 10 - 20 - [Student] 30 - 40 - [Student] 50 - 60 - [Student] 70 - 80 - [Student] 90.

- 100, now we're gonna count from, we're gonna count backwards from 10 to zero, from 10 to zero hands up, 10, nine, eight, seven, six, five four, three, two, one.

Blast off, let's get into our solar system.

Let's fly high above the sun.

If you get too close you might get burned, no, no stay away from the sun.

Come back to earth.

Are you back with me on earth?

Okay, okay let's go on top of a mountain and look down at everybody.

Say hi everybody.

Hi everybody.

All right say hi Dr. Sanders.

Hi, Dr. Sanders.

Hey campers.

Let's take a, think about size.

We've been talking about sizes, right?

So let's think about our sizes.

I have this spider right here.

Let's take a look at this spider.

You see the spider from our critter week and let's take a look at our yellow shark.

Our lemon shark, it's yellow.

Orange is yellow.

What can you tell me about these two things?

The shark is longer than the spider.

Yes, you are right.

The spider has legs.

What does the shark have?

Fins, how many legs does a spider have?

You wanna count them?

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

Let's see how many fins the shark has, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

So who has more?

The spider.

Yes let's look at sizes.

Remember we talked about the big ball, that's bigger than my head.

My head is not bigger than the ball.

Stop laughing, my head is not bigger than the ball.

My head is not that big but the ball is bigger than the what?

Lemon shark.

When we think about our planets, when we think about the planets, remember we say Jupiter is the biggest but we can say earth is bigger than you can choose one, earth is bigger than Mars.

Earth is bigger than Mars.

What else?

Let me show you something real quick, I had these magnets on the board.

Can you describe and tell me about, thinking about size comparisons, can you tell me about these two magnets?

The blue one and the purple, and just tell me something when you're comparing sizes, tell me something about them?

Compare them, the purple, okay?

The purple one is smaller than the blue one?

Yes, or you can say the purple one is the smallest.

The blue one is bigger than the purple one or the blue one is the largest, okay?

Ooh what if I put this one in?

Now, can you make some comparisons on that one?

The yellow one is what?

Tell me about the yellow one?

The yellow one is medium size.

Yeap, the yellow one is medium size.

Can we put them in order?

Would it be easier if we put them in order?

Which one you want to go first?

You want the smaller one or the bigger one?

The bigger one, okay?

So let's say yellow and then what?

I mean blue and then what?

Yellow and then purple.

So they're in order so we can compare the sizes.

We can say that the what?

Purple one is the what?

Smallest, the blue one is the what?

Biggest, the blue one is bigger than the yellow one and the purple one.

The yellow one is smaller than the blue one, but bigger than the purple one, the purple one is the smallest and the tiniest.

Who is the tiniest person around you right now?

Are you the tiniest person?

Are you the tiniest person?

So who's the tiniest?

I'm the biggest in the room right now.

I'm not?

No, okay let's see.

Put your fist up to this, hold your fist up.

Now look at your face and look at my fist, which one is bigger?

Yeah, mine is bigger.

Mine is smaller than yours.

Woo you got a big fist.

All right let's see, let's look at foreheads.

Let's look at foreheads.

Put it up to the screen and look at mine.

Let me see yours.

Ooh yeah mine is a little, yeah mine is bigger than yours.

Mine is a large forehead.

That's large 'cause I don't have eyebrows, but (chuckles) all right you've been sitting a long time, so let's stand up.

Jump up and down 10 times go!

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10.

Let's do the orbit for seven go!

One, two, three, four, we're orbiting around the sun.

Five, six, seven, best smile for three go.

Let's shake it out for tango.

Let's smile for three.

Raise our shoulders for seven go, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

Let's nod our head slowly, stretch him out, one, two, four, five, three, four, five.

10 jumping jacks go, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Ooh I'm tired, let's sit out on three, one, two, three, up, down, up, down sit right down on the ground, we haven't time for some, woo, there's a lot of bubbles, did you catch any of them?

Oh, maybe next time you can catch them.

All right we've been talking about space and mostly about planets, right?

Let's look at our planets on our board, we start with the sun.

Let's name them, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.

Yes, yes.

You know what boys and girls?

Hello did you like seeing all of my campers and their favorite planet?

I have a question, which one was their favorite planet?

Which planet was said the most?

Earth, yes even I tried.

What else did you learn?

What else did they say about different planets?

Okay do you have a favorite planet?

Oh, okay that's excellent.

You like Jupiter?

You like Saturn?

Okay, planets are amazing.

Planets are some things that you can do, and I think you should study on some planets.

All right, let's count the letters in our friends' names.

Let's count the letters in our friend's names.

Whose name is this?

Rainbow, let's count the letters?

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

Whose name is this?

Whose camp name is this?

Zippy, Z-I-P-P-Y.

Aham, hi Aham let's count this letters, one, two, three, four.

And whose camp name is this?

Buggy, let's count the letters.

One, two, three, four, five.

Let's take a look at our words for the week.

What word is this?

We, let's spell we?

We, W-E, we.

We are watching Room Nine, the largest summer camp in the region.

We, can you use we in a sentence?

We like camp, okay I like that sentence.

What word is this?

Boy, let's spell boy?

Boy, B-O-Y, boy.

The boy was walking down the street.

Can you use boy in a sentence?

The boy is mean to a girl, what?

All right, that's a good sentence but don't be mean.

And what word is this?

The, let's spell the?

The, T-H-E, the.

The students were walking down the street.

Can you use the in a sentence?

The mom was holding the baby, aaw.

The man on TV is me.

What man?

And what word is this?

One, let's spell one?

One, O-N-E, one.

One, I drink one cup of water during the episode of Room Nine, one.

O-N-E, one.

And what word is this?

Dad, let's spell dad?

Dad, D-A-D, my dad and I went fishing, can you use, oh your dad, you said my dad and I went to the park?

What did you write on?

Oh, that sounds fun.

Go give your dad a hug.

All right, boys and girls, campers how are you doing?

Let's think about stars?

What do you see stars?

Or when do you see stars?

At night?

Yes, did you know that planets can be seen in the night sky as well?

And they look like stars as well, sometimes they're just brighter than the other ones.

A little while ago, Saturn and Jupiter are really close to the earth and you actually could see it.

You can probably go look it up, probably on PBS Learning Media and actually see the pictures that people took of Mars and Jupiter, Jupiter and Saturn.

If you, sometimes you look up in the sky, you see a really bright star and that's called the north star.

It's called the north star.

And it's always in the what?

North, and it forms constellations, what I was going to do for you boys and girls but it's so cloudy outside that I couldn't do it what I was going to do, and I think you should do this, I think you should go outside even in your backyard, but if you can get somewhere out, maybe in a part where it's not as many lights and lay down and just look at the sky and see all of the stars.

And sometimes you'll see a star shooting like a shooting star, a star falling out there it's called a shooting star.

So I want you to see, go outside late, ask your grownup, don't go outside by yourself.

That wouldn't be very safe now, would it?

But lay down on your back, let your eyes adjust to the light and just lay back and watch to see if you see any stars in the sky.

Try to count them, and you'll see constellations like you might see a big difference which looks like a big cup.

You know I see a Ryan's belt but you can look and you can see all the stars in the sky.

It may be, it's fun to do that especially in the summer when it's warm outside, just look up in the sky, star, hi star.

I don't (chuckles), don't laugh at me.

You want to see me lay down?

Okay I'll lay down.

I'll turn off the light.

Let's see if I see any stars.

Okay, come on.

Ooh, let's lay back, relax.

Ooh, I don't see any stars on my ceiling (chuckles), but at your house (chuckles) if you're outside, you can see the stars possibly.

All right my campers, I hope you had a fun week talking so much about the planets and stars and taking our trip into outer space.

And when you go into outer space, you can ride on a car if you use your imagination, but you can ride in a maybe you'll be an astronaut one day and you can fly into outer space on a space shuttle, but until then you can still join me in the largest summer camp in the region.

Now we need to spell out that word, what is that?

Nine, let's spell nine?

Nine, N-I-N-E, nine.

Thank you for doing it.

Thank you for meeting in Room Nine bye bye.
