should use these for something
funding for zoom

we're starting
hey i'm claudio
i'm elisa
i'm jesse
so let's talk we want to hear from you
come on give it a try and if you like
what you see turn off the tv and do it
come on
today we're doing a really special show
because we've invited back kids from
another zoom cast jared lenice
pablo david and gekko hi guys welcome
back
dear zoom here is a game what you need
is a cup filled with water a paper
napkin sharpened pencils a penny and a
rubber band
open the napkin and put it over the cup
put the rubber band around the rim of
the cup over the napkin
put the penny in the middle of the
napkin players take turns poking a hole
in the napkin with the pencil
the people who don't make the penny fall
are the winners good luck lisa d born
rhode island
all righty okay stick your pencils
okay
so
it's gonna be long
not that long
oh
i'm gonna go right here okay that's what
i just
okay
what are you doing
oh oh she's like the greatest one out of
all of us
i can never do that
oh my
oh no it already does look like
right there i should just go right there
but i'm not
good i know i know
oh my my
oh i guess not
won't even happen
we can like be here like for 10 hours or
something
oh move the penny no
nobody say anything okay
i won't yeah i think it's strong because
there's there's like a lot of these
attaching to it
yeah this part will break and if you're
not wondering
oh no oh okay
anyway
the risk taker
she met her match you did a good job
good job
when i bought my cat after a pet shop
you said it was good for mice yes i did
it doesn't even go near them well isn't
that good for mice
zumdu
this is a dream catcher
native american tradition says that if
you hang it above your bed it will catch
the good dreams and let the bad ones go
through the holes
becky r of jackson new jersey emailed us
the directions to make one like this
you can make it from things you find
around your house
i'm gonna do this with caico okay here's
what you'll need paper plates which are
the main part of the dream catcher
yarn to make the web that will catch all
the good dreams
a single hole punch and beads feathers
and markers for decoration
here's what you do
cut out the center of the paper plate so
you have about two inches of the rim
left over
punch holes a half inch to an inch apart
around the rim of the plate
take your yarn about two arm lengths and
tie it to one of the holes
here's your yarn
which one do you want
uh i'll take this one okay
cool okay
all right
so tie it to one of the holes
you might want to lift it if it doesn't
go
should i tie it so that's the notch on
the back
yeah so you can't see it all right
start weaving it from one hole to the
next
like do it
across you can add a few beads to the
middle of the dream catcher by slipping
them onto the yarn as you weave
it in out of the holes
i have a yarn ball in my mouth
it feels weird
tie a knot at the end of the yarn
but you don't really want to make it
visible
uh so you can make it visible you want
me you might want to tie it on the back
this isn't
punch three more holes at the bottom of
your dream catcher
and tie about five inches of yarn
each of them
thread beads onto the yarn okay when
you're done with that half leather too
okay
so this is what we've done so far
punch a hole at the top of your dream
catcher
and put a piece of string through it so
you can tie it
then you can hang it like that
and then use markers to decorate it
and there's your dream catcher
cool
hang it over your bed to scare away all
your nightmares sweet dreams
we got email from javon jay of green
maine and cara s of maple plain
minnesota
they told us about water filters they
made using napkins gravel sand and
cotton ba*ls
we thought this was really cool and
decided to make some water filters of
our own that could filter some dirty
water that we made
this water has dirt
cooking oil food coloring pieces of
paper and tiny styrofoam pieces all
right let's try it ready
all right what should we do first i
think
that this little piece in here
we can put something over this so let's
just put a couple of those in there
all right what do you think the other
one the water will kind of absorb it
yeah
on its way down
okay we should use these for something
yeah maybe
if we put it on top of that
it would like hold some of the
big junk and then that would absorb like
the food coloring and the cooking oil
we push the napkin all the way down then
we can put the rocks in
oh yeah yeah
okay well i can see the
oh
okay
what do you think that is
it looks like dirt and green color green
yeah the food coloring i'll hold it you
pour
oh it's kind of working
it's getting greenish
well maybe it's from the table
yeah it's greenish
so that it worked pretty well actually
it caught the gravel got the dirt
and the ripped out paper
and that looked like it got a lot of the
um
other stuff
so water
yuck yeah all right
all right
wash this out too because
it'll get more mucked up but still it'll
help my ears when i go
then don't do that
i got it look at the cotton ba*ls are
really green right so they must be
catching the greens and the the napkins
really brown right if we put extra
cotton ba*ls like a big a lot um
a lot cotton ba*ls then how much water
will we get in there right like that
right and then we put a napkin on and
then we put some rocks
yeah right there all righty
how about we clog it with napkins
yeah they'll try it the opposite way
because it'll probably work the same
maybe a little better
things are really tight
yeah that's good
okay
all right
here it is the big moment
look you can see like oh yeah yeah you
can see all the green catching up with
it because it soaks it all up
oh wait
no let's
there we go
all right
so no maybe we put too much like cotton
ba*ls you think
what if we limit the two
you got it yeah
out in the world
that is awesome
wait let me see
come here look at the water
for some wine
how'd you do that
i don't know
it's a miracle
what color is that oh
the green
it was oh but wait lift it up maybe it's
the trait maybe you're looking to the um
hold on
what if we add another napkin
or take the
bottom one out
if we put layers
put a napkin then put sand
then put cotton ba*ls then napkins
salmon all right here we go two in this
thing
right
you're gonna
well there's already some green water in
there so we'll just watch the drop to
see if it comes out clear
nope
okay come on
it's really dark but the last napkin is
up in that last napkin now it's starting
to get wet
yeah that's clear
it has a slight tint of blue but
it's fine with me
let's just use a napkin
just a napkin just a napkin
all right so let's see what got rid of
what is this
all right so the top layer
took the dirt and shredded paper it
looks like right
the middle layer is holding a lot of
water yeah look yeah
that's because it's the cotton ball
jared yeah
could could you work on that your magic
powers or something
because we like
um
the liquidy materials like
the cooking oil and then the last two
napkins
just got rid of more of the food
coloring
because the cooking oil's thicker so it
would stay at the top
all right
with our water filter david and i were
able to use napkins cotton ba*ls and
gravel to get the oil dirt and paper out
of the water
but it was really tough to get all the
green food coloring out maybe if we had
stuffed a lot of napkins into the neck
of the bottle like jared and claudio did
it would have been so tight that the
cotton could have filtered out more of
the green food coloring
try this at home and see if you can get
your water really clear
i want my money back why what happened i
bought a bag of bird seed here and it
didn't work didn't the birds eat it
what birds i planted every single seat
in that bag and not a single bird came
up
zoom check zoom
zoom
lots of kids want to know what it's like
to be on zoom and we thought today would
be a good day to talk about it
i remember we
we all like i met a few of you at the
auditions and then when we were picked
we went to
um
this outdoor adventure adventure program
we called the camp zoom and we like did
rope activities and everything to meet
each other and we had to do challenges
and we played games and we like
and we made our own food and stuff and
just like we brought us closer together
i think the first time we were all
together everyone clicked it was really
fun everyone got to know each other so
it was like we knew each other for a
long time before we even
really knew each other yeah the first
time that we ever met i was so excited i
was but i was also so nervous and i was
like oh my gosh this is awesome i'm
finally going to meet the people i'm
going to spend like so much time with
then i was like oh my gosh i hope they
like me i really hope that they like me
yeah we were in this room and we all
sat on this table and we introduced
ourselves and i was just like looking
around and see like i hope they like me
or if they don't like me oh my gosh it's
going to be like so bad but then like 10
minutes we all like we're talking after
we clicked i was like oh wow i made
friends this is going to be a fun summer
but at the end of the summer i could not
believe how close we all got
the whole cast was like a family
and i mean i've only known you guys for
like i've met you a couple times but
today is the only time i've got to know
the new cast
and i
like feel you guys are as good friends
as these guys
it's weird
i think the show is based on friendship
isn't it that's what the show's about
you know making friends and having
friendships and being with people you
know
i think zoom is a really big like thing
in my life and i am so
happy that i'm on it i'm so like young
and i already have this big thing to
look back on and be like wow that was so
cool i know i still don't believe i'm
actually on a tv show it kind of feels
like
yeah i know it kind of feels like if you
like it it feels like it's just
something that you're going through and
eventually it's over and then that's the
end and then it's like you realize it's
not there's like more to it and like you
don't forget it and it's like still a
part of you even after it's over because
sometimes i forget
like you
come on now like because
i'll be on the street
you know you seem like yeah and people
would stare at me sometimes i forget and
i think they're just looking to be rude
and i'm like yeah
and i'm just like do you forget you're
like oh oh yeah
there's a show
before i was really shy whenever
somebody would say hi to me
and i wouldn't say anything back but now
i can
start talking to them and not be really
shy and just
put my feelings out and say what i want
to say
before zoom
i
considered myself like
part of the team you know but now i mean
all seven of us of the first cast i felt
like we were all leaders even though no
one was
um above the other person we all had
some leadership qualities and we would
help each other out in science or
games
and like we would never put each other
down and i really like that
i've come to buy a car
i can't remember its name but it starts
with tea
sorry none of our cars start with tea
all of ours use gasoline
