good everybody

home attention please go

hi my name is Breezy and I'm 12 years

old and I've been coming out to this

Lake for 2 years and I paddle almost

every day of the week and I even come

out here on days like this when it's so

cold what are you waiting for let's go

stretch come on I love being part of a

team my team is the Seattle caman kayak

club we all practice really hard in the

winter so you can be ready for the

racing season in the summer I enjoy

kaying because it's really different and

unique from other sports and I have so

many friends here and it's almost like

my second home it's so cold today I

think my feet are going to freeze off

now we're taking our boat out so we can

go

paddle the boat I'm pading today is a K2

and I'm pading with my best friend Lizzy

the K2 is a kayak that made for two

people and this is a very Tippy boat and

it's really hard to learn in because

it's really Tippy oh my gosh the water

in the boat's Frozen these boats are

called Flat Water Sprint boats and

they're called that because the whole

point is to go

fast to make the boats go fast and go

how you want them to and control them

you have to practice and you have to

have the right technique sometimes if

you don't have the right technique

you'll flip but that's just part of the

sport today I'm going to go out and do a

time tral I'm going to go try to beat my

best time which is 2 minutes and 20

seconds and it's going to be on 500 M

and if I don't then that's why I'm out

here in the winter I want to work hard

and I want to be able to beat it so I

can be one of the fastest during the

racing season

the command will be attention please

followed by go K2 Ley Brey up take for

back pay two hold Quincy back everybody

there's so many things to learn and so

many different techniques and if you

don't learn those then you won't be as

timing and staying together when we

paddle all right good job time was 2:40

[Laughter]

here's a challenge that came in on email

from Alex M of Indianapolis Indiana

there are 12 marbles in a bag six are

yellow and six are blue how many marbles

do you need to take out to make sure

that you get two that are the same how

many do you need to pull out to get two

that are different stumped don't read

the answer until you thought about it 12

marbles in a bag six are yellow and six

are blue how many marbles do you need to

take out to make sure that you get two

that are the same how many do you need

to pull out to get two that are

different okay well what do you think I

don't know maybe six or four what do you

think I'm not sure yet but if you think

let's see if you had 12 if you had let's

see

one it doesn't matter how big they are 2

three four five is six blue

and okay we can pretend this pink is

yellow one 2 8 9 10

11 12 here we go now you need it you can

only pull out you have to pull out two

of one kind so how many do you think you

need to get the least to get the least

well to pull out the least number but to

pull out two of the same kind

hm what do you think though maybe four

I'm not sure this is a high I think I

know way you could find the

answer

try no if you

took two of one kind uhhm there's two

Marbles and

then you need but then you don't

wouldn't be sure that you'd always get

two yeah because you could get one blue

and one

yellow you want to try for yeah okay

should I just close my eyes close your

eyes and D to five and pull one

two three

four that works but it doesn't but then

if you are wait I I know three yeah that

the you only have to pull out two of

every color so that

means okay let's try C

one two one is that one yeah one two

three see you right yeah three you

always get two of one color and then one

of the other color let's see if we were

right you have to pull out three to make

sure that you get two that are the same

you have to pull out seven to make sure

that you get two that are

different

oh what if there was four different

color marbles how many do you think we'd

have to pill out to make a pair

four different oh I don't know oh I

think I know how this works now how well

if you took say you had okay I have two

of each color I have two clears two

blues and two

yellows then I need to pull up

three and then I'd always need to pull

out one more so it's the number of

marbles plus one extra one

equals equals the number that you'll

need to get a pair oh yes that's so cool

so if I had 49 I need to pull

out 50 yeah because then I I might pull

out 49 separate colors and then I'd

always need one extra one to be sure to

get a pair I get that rule oh cool

you're a

genius oh

Tails how snowflakes got their shape

written and illustrated by Nicole s of

Oakton

Virginia there once was a village on a

stratus cloud it was the village of

snowflakes there were lots of snowflake

children Jack and Willie were best

friends they looked exactly alike Chloe

and Tommy were twins they also looked

exactly alike in fact all the snowflake

Children looked exactly

alike strange things started to happen

when they all went to school Miss Frost

their teacher could not tell the

snowflakes apart she would have to call

each of them by name just to see who was

who Jack and Willie had a great idea

they all went to see the winter King

Willie and Jack nervously asked excuse

me master sir we mean Mr winter King why

are we all the same Jack said can we be

different Mr winter King replied well

you see young snowflake kids should all

be the same look the same act the same

etc etc etc so you'll be equal Chloe

said please Mr winter King can we all

have our own individual pattern that we

can be proud of Mr winter King said but

you will be different they all said yes

please Mr winter King said okay but you

must promise to accept each other and

your differences they all promised that

they would Mr winter King said very well

you will all be different and he raised

his wand to this day the snowflake

children are still different getting

along is sometimes a little hard but

much more fun

the

end hey Kenny yeah what the doctor say

to the banana I don't know are you

peeling okay I'm not feeling

[Music]

okay we've been trying to find out if

more people are squares or rectangles to

do this kids from all around the country

have been measuring their height the

distance from their head to their toes

and their arm spin the distance from the

longest finger on their left hand to the

longest finger on the right hand if the

two measurements are the same then

they're squares but if the two

measurements are different then they're

rectangles this is a pie chart showing

all the data we've received so far as

you can see slightly more girls are

rectangles and slightly more guys are

squares maybe that's because girl girls

grow taller before the arms go longer

that would make them rectangled yeah but

the number of boys and girls who are

square and rectangles is still prettyy

close it'll be interesting to see

what'll happen when we get more data so

make sure you collect your data measure

the height and our span of you your

friends and your family write down if

they're a boy or a girl and how old they

are then send your results to zoom

[Music]

[Applause]
