00:01Hi, I'm Murray from Sesame Street, and I'm looking for the word on the street.
00:05What's the word on the street?
00:07Reporter.
00:08What is a reporter?
00:09A reporter is someone who talks about and writes about major events going on in the world.
00:13They might talk about the news, what happened that day.
00:16Where do these reporters report these stories?
00:18On TV.
00:19On the internet.
00:20Or a newspaper.
00:21Keep listening for the word reporter today on Sesame Street.
00:24Reporter.
00:25That's the word on the street.
00:27This is Murray signing off.
00:28Back to you.
00:52Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:56Hey, okay.
01:00And we can see that's where we meet.
01:05Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
01:09That's the cover.
01:11Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
01:23Come on, light bulb.
01:25Light up.
01:25Light up.
01:26Come on.
01:27Hey, guys.
01:28Nice.
01:30Ooh, look at that.
01:32Wow.
01:33Yes.
01:34Nice.
01:35Oh.
01:36Hello, science lovers.
01:38This is Tully, your monster-on-the-spot reporter.
01:41And Baby Bill, your cub reporter.
01:44Reporting to you from the Sesame Street Fairytale Science Fair.
01:48It's so exciting.
01:49All your favorite fairytale characters are here today, Tully.
01:53And each one is going to solve a problem with science.
01:57Mm-hmm.
01:57Our first fairytale scientist is Little Red Whiting Hood.
02:03Yes.
02:03Uh, tell us, Red.
02:05Excuse us.
02:05What?
02:06What is your problem?
02:07Oh.
02:08Oh, hello.
02:09Well, I can't tell the difference between my granny and the wolf.
02:15Mm.
02:16That's a problem.
02:16Yeah, sure is.
02:18Mm-hmm.
02:18You see these two grannies?
02:21Well, one of them is my real granny, and one is the wolf pretending to be granny.
02:27But I don't know which is which.
02:30Oh, I am your granny, Red Deer.
02:34Don't listen to her.
02:35I'm your granny.
02:37Oh, nuts.
02:38See my problem?
02:39So, how are you going to solve this problem with science?
02:43Ah, well, I'm going to observe and compare.
02:49Ah!
02:50Huh?
02:51Well, I'm going to look closely and carefully at these two grannies and see what's the same
02:58and what's different.
02:59Hmm.
03:00Sounds like science to me, folks.
03:02Yes.
03:02Right.
03:02So, I will start by observing things that are the same.
03:07Now, um, ah, they are both wearing the same cap.
03:12Oh, oh, yes.
03:14And, oh, they're both wearing the same nightie.
03:20And, oh, they both have the same glasses.
03:25But, but, I'm your granny.
03:27What, what?
03:28You back off, whippersnapper.
03:30I am her granny.
03:32You better keep observing.
03:34All right, all right.
03:35Um, well, they both have two eyes.
03:37And, um, yep, they both have two ears.
03:43Oh, for Pete's sake, everything's the same.
03:46Wait.
03:47Look closer.
03:48Sir, do you notice how much bigger these eyes are?
03:54Who asked you?
03:56Oh, he's right.
03:58What big eyes you have.
04:00That's different.
04:01Mm-hmm.
04:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:03And look.
04:04Look, his ears are much bigger, too.
04:06Mm-hmm.
04:07Oh, oh.
04:08What big ears you have.
04:10That's different.
04:12Mm-hmm.
04:12And, wait a minute.
04:15Now that I look closely, you're covered in fur.
04:20My granny's not covered in fur.
04:24That's different.
04:25So, you, you must be the wolf.
04:29Oh.
04:30You got it.
04:31Woo-hoo.
04:32I can tell the difference now.
04:35Oh.
04:35Granny.
04:37Oh, I am so proud of you, little red.
04:40Grat, foiled by science.
04:44Arrgh, argh, argh, argh.
04:45Remember, folks, just look closely and carefully,
04:49and you, too, can solve your problem with science.
04:52Mm.
04:53I couldn't have done it without you.
04:56Thanks so much, guys.
04:58Aw, you're welcome.
04:59Anything for science.
05:00Oh, look over here.
05:01Let's go.
05:05Our next fairy tale scientist is Cinderella.
05:09Well, uh, hi, Cinderella.
05:11Uh, what's your problem?
05:13I wonder if this pumpkin will float or sink.
05:16That's a problem?
05:18No, I don't have a problem.
05:20I just love science.
05:21I love everything about it.
05:24The questions, the experiments.
05:26I love science.
05:29Oh.
05:30Hmm, what do you think?
05:31Will this pumpkin float or sink?
05:34Well, um, I happen to have a wee little hypothesis,
05:37and I say it will sink.
05:39Yeah, look at how big it is.
05:40Oh, yeah, it looks very heavy.
05:42I say it will sink, too.
05:43Mm-hmm.
05:44Well, let's find out.
05:46One, two, three.
05:50Oh, oh, oh, it floats.
05:54Wow.
05:56That's amazing.
05:58It is.
05:58Oh, I love science.
06:01Oh, excuse me, but did you lose this glass slipper?
06:08Hmm, glass slipper?
06:11Oh, yes.
06:12If it fits you, then you can marry me, Prince Charming,
06:17and we can live happily ever after.
06:20Here, try it.
06:21Don't mind if I do.
06:24Float or sink?
06:25Uh, float.
06:27Yeah, yeah, yeah, float.
06:28Um, excuse me, what are you doing?
06:31Science!
06:36It's...
06:37It's...
06:38It's sinking!
06:39It's sinking!
06:40It's...
06:40Oh, fascinating!
06:42Oh!
06:43I like her.
06:44She's a scientist.
06:46I think I'm in love.
06:48I wonder why it sinks.
06:50Marry me, and we'll find out together.
06:54Deal!
06:55Wow, that Cinderella really loves her some science.
06:59I'll say.
06:59Come on, let's see what our next fairy tale scientists are up to.
07:03Yes, come on.
07:06Oh, hey, look.
07:08It's the three little piggies.
07:09Hey, what's up, three little pigs?
07:12The big bad wolf is coming!
07:14The big bad wolf is coming!
07:15This doesn't look very scientific.
07:17Whoa, piggies, stop!
07:19The big bad wolf is coming!
07:20What?
07:21Where's your science project?
07:23Now.
07:23We don't have time for science!
07:27We've got a problem.
07:29The big bad wolf is coming!
07:32The big bad wolf is coming!
07:33The big bad wolf is coming!
07:35Tell the old science pal,
07:36I think these piggies need our help!
07:38I think they're right, baby bear,
07:40old science friend!
07:41The big bad wolf is coming!
07:44Maybe you can solve your problem with science!
07:48How?
07:50First, you ask a question.
07:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:53For instance, um,
07:54what do you already know
07:55about this big bad wolf?
07:57We know he's coming!
07:59Uh, who's coming?
08:00The big bad wolf!
08:03Ah!
08:04The big bad wolf is coming!
08:05The big bad wolf is coming!
08:06Okay, let's try that again!
08:08The big bad wolf is coming!
08:08The big bad wolf is coming!
08:09The big bad wolf is coming!
08:11The big bad wolf is coming!
08:12The big bad wolf is coming!
08:12All right, all right!
08:13What else do you know
08:15about the big bad wolf?
08:17Uh, we know he can huff and puff!
08:20And blow us away!
08:23We don't like it
08:24when he blows us away!
08:25Oh, no!
08:26Ah!
08:27Okay, okay!
08:28Next question!
08:29How can you protect yourselves
08:30from the big bad wolf's
08:32huffing and puffing?
08:33Say, now that's a good question!
08:37We, we never thought of that!
08:39Oh!
08:40Oh, maybe we could build something!
08:43Like a house!
08:46Ah!
08:50I want to build it out of straw!
08:53I want to build it out of sticks!
08:56And I want to build it out of
08:59pineapples!
09:01Pineapples?
09:03Just kidding!
09:04I want to build it out of bricks!
09:09I say straw!
09:11I say sticks!
09:13I say bricks!
09:15Aw, what do we do now?
09:17Yeah, we each want to build
09:19with something different!
09:20You can experiment!
09:22Oh, that's it!
09:23We'll experiment!
09:24Experiment!
09:25Experiment!
09:27What's experiment?
09:29It's when you test your ideas
09:31to see which one is best!
09:34Cool!
09:36Now, if we're going to test our ideas...
09:39We need something that blows air
09:41like the big bad wolf!
09:43Hey!
09:44Good thinking, piggies!
09:45I got it!
09:46Come on, you guys!
09:47Okay, let's go!
09:48Come on!
09:49I'm very excited about your idea!
09:51Let's put it down right over!
09:53That looks good!
09:54Right there!
09:54Okay!
09:55A fan!
09:56Brilliant!
09:57Fans make air move!
09:58So, we'll turn on the fan!
10:01And let it blow on the straw,
10:03the sticks,
10:04and the bricks!
10:04Uh-huh!
10:05Hey!
10:06I wonder what'll happen!
10:08Oh!
10:09Let's think about what we know
10:11and make a guess!
10:12Oh, good idea!
10:13Yeah, let's think!
10:14These piggies are thinking
10:15like scientists now!
10:16They're forming an hypothesis!
10:18Let's watch!
10:19Let's see!
10:21Well, the straw is very easy to lift
10:24because it's light!
10:26Oh, yes, yes!
10:27These sticks are easy to lift!
10:29They're light as well!
10:31The brick is hard to lift!
10:32It's heavy!
10:34Hmm!
10:36I predict that the air from the fan
10:39will blow the straw and the sticks,
10:42but not the heavy bricks!
10:45Me too!
10:46Me too!
10:47Come on!
10:48Let's turn on the fan
10:49and see what happens!
10:50Yes!
10:50I got it, fellas!
10:51Here you go!
10:54Okay!
10:55Well, this is fairy tale history
10:57in the making, folks!
10:58The fan is blowing!
11:00Hmm!
11:02Oh, look!
11:02Look!
11:03And the air from the fan
11:05is moving the straw!
11:07Oh!
11:07There goes the straw!
11:09Ooh!
11:10Now, look!
11:10The air from the fan
11:12is moving the sticks!
11:14There go the sticks!
11:16Ooh!
11:17Yay!
11:18But look!
11:19The bricks are not moving!
11:22The air from the fan
11:24can't blow the bricks away!
11:26Oh, the bricks are the strongest!
11:29It must be the best!
11:30Yay!
11:32Hey!
11:32Let's build our house out of bricks!
11:35Quick!
11:35Before the big bad wolf gets here!
11:37Come on!
11:38Let's go!
11:38Let's go!
11:39Let's go!
11:40Let's go!
11:40Oh!
11:40They're building!
11:41Look!
11:42Look at it!
11:42And they're done!
11:43It's all done!
11:44Look!
11:45Yoo-hoo!
11:47Whoa!
11:48Whoa!
11:49You guys are fast!
11:50Yes!
11:51Whoa!
11:51Hello, piggies!
11:53Ah!
11:54The big bad wolf!
11:56That's right!
11:57And I'm here to huff
11:58and puff
11:59and blow you away!
12:03Ha!
12:07The big bad wolf is huffing and puffing!
12:10Will he be able to blow the brick house away?
12:14Ha!
12:16Van Puff!
12:18No!
12:18He can't blow it away!
12:20It's too strong!
12:21What's going on here?
12:23Science!
12:24Science?
12:25Again?
12:26Oh, organ blog!
12:28Hey!
12:29You science guys foiled my granny disguise, too!
12:33Ha!
12:33Ha!
12:34All in the name of science!
12:37Mr. Wolf, sir?
12:40Oh, yeah?
12:41Well, I can do science, too!
12:44Watch how air moves things!
12:57Anyone can be a scientist.
13:04This is Telly, your monster on the spot reporter.
13:08And Baby Belle, your cub reporter.
13:10Saying that's all for now from the Fairytale Science Fair.
13:16Bye!
13:21Hi, I'm Samantha.
13:22Oh, and Elmo's Elmo.
13:24And we're here to tell you about the word reporter.
13:27Oh, I mean Samantha? What's a reporter?
13:30Well, Elmo, a reporter is someone who writes or tells about things that are happening.
13:35Wow, that sounds kind of fun. Elmo wants to be a reporter.
13:38Right. Well, what does a reporter do?
13:40Well, remember, to be a reporter, you have to write or tell about what's happening.
13:44Oh, okay, Elmo can do that. Here Elmo goes.
13:48This is Elmo, reporter live. And this is what's happening.
13:55Um, Miss Samantha? Nothing is happening.
13:59Yeah, I guess you're right. It's hard to tell about what's happening when nothing's happening.
14:03Oh, boy. Elmo guesses he can't be a reporter then.
14:07Aw. Wait, I have an idea.
14:09Really?
14:12Hit it!
14:13Oh, boy. Something to report on.
14:19Whoa, this is Elmo reporter live. And here is what's happening.
14:24Elmo's friend Samantha is dancing with a penguin.
14:31And now Samantha is spinning the penguin.
14:37And now the penguin is spinning towards reporter Elmo.
14:42Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
14:43Are you okay?
14:44Oh.
14:47You make a great reporter, Elmo.
14:52Reward her.
14:54Hit it!
15:02It's time for the Ladder of the Day game show with our contestant, Cookie Monster.
15:09What's up? What's up? What's the game?
15:10That's right, Cookie Monster.
15:11And to play the game, all you have to do is find three things that begin with the Ladder of
15:17the Day.
15:18Oh, yeah.

15:29Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here we go.
15:31Wait, wait, wait, Cookie Monster.
15:32Yeah, what?
15:33You don't know the Ladder of the Day yet.
15:35Oh, yeah, that might help.
15:36The Ladder of the Day is...
15:37Yeah, what?

15:52Watermelon start with W.
15:53That's right, Cookie Monster.
16:01Cookie Monster, the clock is ticking away.
16:03You still have to find two more things that start with the letter W.
16:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
16:09Water, water, water.
16:10We know how.
16:13Wig starts with W.
16:15I'm here.
16:18Cookie Monster, you only have a few seconds left to find one more thing that starts with the letter W.
16:24What are you going to do?
16:26I can't think of anything.
16:27Hurry, Cookie Monster, hurry.
16:29Look at something.
16:30Cookie Monster, what?
16:31How do you do it?
16:32I'm just taking a bath.
16:34Ta-da.
16:36Oh, but where am I?
16:38Oh, I'm sorry, Cookie Monster.
16:40Time is up.
16:41And that's a girl.
16:42Girl doesn't start with the letter W.
16:46Yeah, but she all wet and wet start with W.
16:51Yeah.
16:53It does start with the letter W.
