03x15 - Rock & Roll Easter!

Post by bunniefuu »

Hey, scientists, it'’s me,

Sid. While I was looking for

Easter eggs, I found this

Amazing rock, and now I want to

Investigate what it is. Come

Join us in this special easter

Episode.

Hey, is this thing on? Ha ha!

Hey, sid, what do you say?

What you want to learn today?

♪ I want to know why things

Happen and how

And I want to know

Everything now

Oh, yeah!

How does this thing work?

Why does that stuff change?

How does that do

What it just did? Hmm!

What'’s up with the sky?

You think I could fly?

The world is spinning

And I want to know why

I got a lot of questions

And big ideas. I'’m... ♪

[Hums] hmm, nothing over

Here, either. Well, heh! Where

Are they? Hmm. Oh! Hi! Heh! I'’m

Practicing for our easter egg

Hunt. What'’s an easter egg hunt?

Well, it'’s what mom calls

A family trandusting.

Transition. No. Trandusal.

Tradition!

Ha! Oh, yeah, that'’s right.

Tradition. Ha ha! Um, what'’s

That again?

Well, a tradition is

Something we all do to celebrate

A special day.

Right, and this sunday, we'’re

Celebrating easter, so I got to

Keep practicing. Heh heh! Ok,

Mom, do that ready-set-go thing.

Ha ha ha! Ok. Ready, set, go!

Going! Whoo! Hmm. Not there.

Heh heh! Ok, how about over

Here? Hold on. Ha ha! I got one!

Yes!

Way to go, sid. You keep

Practicing. I'’m going to finish

Making breakfast.

Ok, mom. Whoo! I'’m going to

Keep looking out here because I

Know there'’s got to be one in

The flowerbed because--[gasps]

Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa! Oh, that

Is definitely not an egg. Ha ha!

Check this out! It'’s--it's some

Kind of rock, the most amazing

Rock I'’ve ever seen. It's shiny

And sparkly and--hmm. Wonder

What kind of rock it is. Now I

Just got to know what kind of

Rock did I find in my backyard?

["Backyard" echoes]

Ok, sid, breakfast is ready.

Oh, boy! Hey, mom, look what

I found. Look at this.

Ha ha ha! Hey, guess what I

Found in the backyard.

More eggs?

Nope. This. Ta-da!

Oh, take a look at that.

You found that in our

Backyard?

Yeah.

Wow.

Wow is right. It'’s shiny like

Gold and so sparkly. Ha ha! So,

Mom, dad, what is it?

Uh, well, uh--

It'’s...let's look at the

Science center web site. They

Have lots of pictures of rocks.

Ok.

Ok. Uh...ok. Look, here are

Some pictures. Let'’s compare

Your rock to these rocks.

Ok. Uh...nope. Hmm. Hmm.

Well, those don'’t look like my

Rock. I can'’t believe there are

So many amazing rocks, and they

All look so different. Heh! How

Does that happen? Heh! What is

The big idea with rocks?

Great questions, and I know

A good place for you to find

Out.

That'’s right. I can

Investigate at school. Ha ha ha!

Ok, rock, just you wait. I'’m

Going to find out all about you.

And, sid, you know, I don'’t

Have to be at work until later,

So we can walk to school today.

Oh, ok, mom.

Eat a good breakfast, siddo.

You are going to need lots of

Energy.

Right, because today'’s a

Walking day.

♪ I love my mom

Uh-huh

My mom is cool

Uh-huh

But now it'’s time

For having fun at school

Yeah! ♪

[Both laugh]

Hi, sid. Hello, alice.

Hello.

Did you all walk to school?

Yes, we did.

Wow! What a wonderful thing

To do!

Ha ha!

And now it'’s time for sid

The science reporter. Heh heh

Heh! Greetings, rock fans. Today

I'’m talking with the world's

Greatest rock researchers to

Find out what they think of my

Rock. Follow me.

[Hums] hello, may.

Hi, sid.

I have a question for you.

Ok.

What kind of rock do you

Think this is?

Ooh, hey, hmm. Feels kind of

Smooth, but has little pieces

In it, like sand.

Yeah.

[Gasps] maybe it'’s made out

Of sand!

Oh, sand. Could be. Thanks,

May.

You'’re welcome.

Shiny rock!

Ooh.

Ooh, very shiny rock. Hey,

Hey, where'’d you find it?

In my backyard.

Backyard?

Uh-huh.

Ooh! Oh! I bet it'’s buried

Treasure!

Really?

Aye! It'’s a pirate's buried

Treasure. It'’s gold, matey, and

You and me, we'’re going to dig

Up your backyard till we find

The rest of the treasure. Aaarr!

That sounds great, but, um,

I don'’t think my mom and dad

Will let us dig up the backyard.

Oh. Well, it'’s still a cool

Rock. Ha ha! Bye, sid.

Bye. Thanks, gerald. Oh, hey,

Gabriela.

Oh, hello.

What do you think of this

Rock?

[Gasps] wow! Somebody must

Have put those sparkles on it

To make it look shiny!

Hmm. Well, how would they do

That?

Um...with a machine?

Oh, my rock made by a

Machine. Very interesting. Hmm.

Thanks, gabriela.

Sure thing.

And now, the results of my

Playground research. May says

She thinks my rock could be made

From sand. Gerald says it looks

Like pirate treasure. Heh! Maybe

Even gold. And gabriela says my

Sparkly rock could have been

Made by a machine. Well, there

You have it. I am sid the

Science reporter and sparkly

Rock owner.

Everybody, rug time!

That'’s teacher susie.

♪ It'’s rug time, come on in!

Rug time, take a seat

Rug time

We'’re ready

Everybody move your feet

Rug time

Teacher susie

Good times on the way

Rug time, come on in!

We'’ve got a lot to learn today ♪

Aaarr! I'’m looking for me

Treasure!

Ha ha ha!

Just like what me pal siddo

Has! Ha ha ha!

That'’s great pirate, gerald.

Thank you.

Is it true, sid? Do you have

A treasure?

I sure do. Look. Ta-da!

Wow. That is an amazing rock.

I found it in my backyard.

Oh, I love rocks.

Oh, me, too!

Yeah, when I was your age, I

Collected rocks that I found.

In fact, I still have a rock

Collection.

Wow, that'’s amazing.

Aw, I'’m really trying to

Figure out what kind of rock

It is.

Oh, well then, let'’s take a

Closer look with the perfect

Science tool, right over here.

What is it?

Yeah.

Ta-da!

A magnifying glass!

One for each of you.

Cool. Thank you.

Thank you.

And, sid, I'’ll hold your rock

And you can all make some

Observations.

Oh.

Sid'’s rock is made up of lots

Of little pieces.

Yeah, all smushed together.

Right. Rocks are made up of

Tiny materials called minerals.

Huh?

Minerals.

You got it. And the minerals

Make each rock look different.

But what makes his rock look

Like gold?

Well, I think somebody put

Paint on it with a rock

Painting machine.

Oh, yeah, like an art

Project.

Well, it may look like

Somebody put paint on it, but

Rocks aren'’t made by people or

Machines. They'’re part of

Nature. Here'’s your rock back,

Sid.

Susie, aren'’t rocks...

Just rocks?

Well, scientists have

Identified all different kinds

Of rocks that have many

Different colors and textures.

Right here is a big book about

Rocks found all over the world.

Let'’s see if we can find sid's

Rock in here. Ok, this rock is

Called sandstone. Does this look

Like sid'’s rock?

No.

Next!

Ha ha ha! This kind of rock

Is called granite. What do you

Think?

No.

Next!

And...this rock is called

Obsidian.

No.

Next!

And this rock is called

Quartz.

Nope!

Next!

I have one more rock to show

You.

Hey! That looks like my rock.

This is called iron pyrite.

Oh! Oh! Iron pirate! Hey!

Hey, maybe it is a pirate gold

Treasure. Aaarr!

Not pirate, gerald. Pyrite.

Oh!

It does look like gold, but

It'’s actually a mineral. Iron

Pyrite is sometimes called

Fool'’s gold because it fools so

Many people into thinking it'’s

Real gold.

Ha ha! Fooled me! Ha ha ha!

Wow. I found fool'’s gold

Right in my backyard?

I guess you can find rocks

Just about everywhere.

You'’re right, may. Hey,

Maybe we should see what rocks

We find right here on the

Playground.

Yeah!

And since it'’s almost easter,

We can have a special easter

Super fab lab.

Easter super fab lab!

Yeah. Grab your journals and

Let'’s go.

Ok!

[All giggle]

It'’s the super fab lab...

Outside! Observe, compare,

Contrast! Ah!

Hello, my easter bunnies.

Hello!

Today, instead of an easter

Egg hunt, we'’re going on a

Special easter rock hunt.

Yay!

You'’re going to search for

Rocks here on the playground and

All around the school, and put

Them in your easter baskets.

I even hid some rocks from my

Own rock collection.

I'’m an easter bunny, and I

Love hunting rocks.

When you'’ve collected the

Rocks, bring them back to the

Picnic table, and we can use old

Toothbrushes and soapy water to

Clean them. Then we'’ll look at

The rocks with magnifying

Glasses and make observations.

Are we going to find sparkly

Rocks or gray rocks or black

Rocks?

I don'’t know. Maybe you'll

Find all those rocks. Then you

Can work as a team to sort the

Rocks by color, shape, and

Texture.

I think all the rock colors

Are beautiful. They'’re even

Better than easter eggs.

You know what? You can

Choose your favorite rock and

Paint it to look like an easter

Egg. Well, an easter rock. Ha

Ha ha! Ok, bunny scientists,

Time to start the special easter

Rock hunt. Go for it!

Hey, you'’re a scientist. You

Can try this, too. Ha ha ha!

Ok, scientists, it'’s time for

A special easter rock hunt.

Explore all around the

Playground. Your teacher has

Hidden some special rocks, and

You'’ll also find rocks that are

Found naturally out here. Look

Everywhere. Ooh, you found

A black one. And you found

A few small rocks that are

Different colors. Some are big,

Some are different shapes, some

Have smooth textures, and some

Have rough textures. There are

So many different kinds of

Rocks. All right, everyone bring

Your rocks back to the table

So we can investigate.

First, use these old

Toothbrushes and water to clean

The rocks. Then use a magnifying

Glass so you can look at them up

Close and make some

Observations.

Now work as a team to sort your

Rocks by color, texture, and

Shape. And finally, choose your

Favorite rock and paint it to

Look like an easter rock. You

Can paint it any color you like

Or you can use lots of colors.

Wow. These are the best easter

Rocks ever. Great job,

Scientists. Oh, I love the way

You sorted the rocks. What kind

Of observations can you make?

Well, this rock is smooth and

Kind of brown.

Yeah, I found this pointy

Black rock.

Well, I can see little tiny

Pieces of sand in this rock.

Hey, where'’s gerald?

I'’m almost done! I'll be

There soon.

Ok, take your time. So, did

Anyone find a colorful rock from

My collection?

Oh, is this from your rock

Collection?

It sure is. That'’s a quartz

Rock, like the one we saw in

The picture inside.

It'’s so beautiful.

I agree, may. So, may I see

The easter rocks you all

Painted?

Oh, yeah.

They'’re drying right over

Here.

Ok. [Gasps] oh, they'’re

Beautiful.

I painted a flower on mine.

Nice.

And I made my rock into a

Rocket ship. It'’s a rocket ship

Rock. Get it?

Ha ha ha! Great, sid. And

What about your rock, may?

Well, this was my favorite

Rock, but I didn'’t want to

Paint it. I think it'’s pretty

Just the way it is.

May, would you like to keep

That rock?

Oh, yes! Thank you, susie!

You'’re very welcome. Ok,

What happened to gerald?

Here I come! Aaarr! Ha ha!

I found this giant rock and

Painted it to look like a

Monster. Rrowr!

I love it! Very creative.

Thank you.

Ok, my easter-bunny,

Rock-hunting, painting

Scientists. It'’s time to go play

With all your new ideas.

Yay!

Um, gerald, you want to--

Huh? Oh! Ha ha! I almost

Forgot. That rock'’s so heavy.

Hey there, rock fans! I'’m

Your host with the most,

Bringing you the

Behind-the-scenes story of the

World'’s first rock band. Yes,

They were all rocks, so much

Alike, yet so very different.

I am shiny.

I am smooth.

And I'’m rough.

And then they decided to form

A band.

Hey, do you want to be in a

Rock band together?

No way! You'’re shiny and I'm

Smooth. We could never get

Along.

I hear you want to start a

Rock band. Can I join?

I don'’t know. I am a

Beautiful rock with colors, and

You are a plain gray rock.

Hey, that'’s not fair!

We'’re all just way too...

For a while, it looked like

Their rock band would never get

Together. Too many different

Rocks from different places made

In different ways from different

Stuff. But then they realized...

Hey, wait a minute!

We may be different...

But we'’re all rocks, so...

Let'’s rock!

Yeah!

Ha ha! And so rock history

Was made because that'’s the way

Thank you. Well, scientists,

You did a great job on the

Easter rock hunt today.

Thank you.

There are so many different

Kinds of rocks.

You'’re right, gabriela, and

All the different rocks can be

Put into big groups: igneous,

Metamorphic, and sedimentary

Them into fancy jewelry from way

Back in ancient times, even

Older than me. Ha ha ha! Oh,

Zekey.

Rocks! They'’re everywhere.

I step on them every day, and

They'’re so amazing. They can be

Found in jewelry or made into

Statues. Ha! Wha-cha! Or they

Can just be really sparkly on

Their own, like my fool'’s gold.

Heh heh! Hey, you know what? I

Everything a great rock

Collector needs. It sorts and

It will even help figure out

What kind of rock it is.

Quartz.

Iron pyrite. Boop boop.

Granite.

Obsidian.

Sandstone.

Then your rocks will be ready

To show wherever you go. Find

A rock on a mountaintop and not

Sure what kind it is?

No worries. Insta-rock museum

Is there for you. Dive for a

Rock in the ocean? Insta-rock

Museum is there. Rocks in the

Desert sand or in the jungle?

A rock as big as an elephant

Or as small as a flea? The

Insta-rock museum will help you

Clean your rock and get it

Looking great for your

Collection. So start

Rock-collecting and get ready
