it is to really understand creatures who are different yeah and how not to be
afraid of them just because they're different I used to be afraid of almost
everything [Music]

[Applause] [Music]
and many Indians believe that the white
man had the gift from the great spirits to send his messages hundreds of miles
on the talking leaf that is the gift of the written language but one man Sequoia
did not believe this he was sure that he could find a way for the Cherokee Nation
to read and write their own language
at first Sequoia do a picture for each Cherokee word but there are thousands of
Cherokee words [Music]
[Applause] Sequoyah tried many different ways to
find the secret of writing his language many years went by and Sequoia kept
working and trying [Music]
[Music]
[Music]
making up a written language was hard work especially all by himself what he
was trying to do no one had ever done before
Sequoyah also used some of the English alphabet because it looked the same as his but were simpler
after 12 years of trying Sequoia succeeded he ended up with 86 characters
and it worked Sequoia had given the Cherokee Nation a gift better than gold messages could be
sent back and forth between the Cherokees in the nation now the stories could be written down now the Cherokee
Nation could read and write their own language it took Sequoia 12 years to find a way
for the Cherokees to write their own language but he is the only man the
world to find the secret of a written language all by himself when daddy's
name is salvador Flores my daddy goes lots of meetings he works on papers and
types a lot he's the man who said weathers schools are closed when it
snows years ago photographers would come around and ask if you'd like to have a
family picture taken and they'd cost maybe a dollar and are on hips and here is probably the first one that
was ever taken of the family there I am in the high chair now who would this be got beyond oh boy this one turned
okay now hold this young lady beat Danny Jenny and okay you see years later then
we went into town to take the family portrait
hey buddy looks about right dr. Flores
Superintendent of Schools good morning boys and girls I wonder if I could walk
around and maybe speak with some of you just a little bit my father tries to see everything that's wrong in this school
and he tries to make them better let me
ask you a question when you came to grant school and you didn't speak English what did you think there was
some day smarted just because I was talking in Spanish today I was talking about them I see but has that changed
friends in this room yes very good now Eddie where are you from one of the
things my father's done his teacher was to help other people learn to speak English or Spanish let's see and let's
see where are you from Perico Porto Rico and where are you from
what the mullah my mother and father came from Mexico so I learned how to speak Spanish from the limb and then I
went through an elementary school just like you boys and girls are at this table and I learned to speak English my
father goes to meetings and he goes around and walks around the school to make sure that they're okay and
everything's coming on are they all set we're all set we've met with everybody we're now ordering the last of supplies
everybody being good change where do we stand on bringing some of the kids back into the city things look pretty good
thank you some of the other things that a superintendent worries about do we
have the best teachers that we have some of the most attractive and comfortable
classrooms around and this is really one of the main things about being a school superintendent my father told us a lot
about you know some of the stories when he was growing up and how it was really hard for him because he had to get out
really early in the morning and he had to catch a bus and he had to go to school that day and he had to also work
to help support the family when I was a kid we harvested tomatoes hi mr. grapes
we harvested walnuts and all sorts of other things usually we would start
around 7 o'clock in the morning work until about at 11:00 take all 30 or 40
minutes it's lunch and work until the Sun went down you would do this six days a week
yes we got paid but not too terribly much the amount of money that we got
would run something like five cents though you know for each box of tomatoes that we harvested now one of the things
I think about whenever I visit classrooms is where there are children we were having some problems I worry
about them because I want for them the same things that I want for my children I want them to be successful I want them
to be able to go ahead in life and select whatever they wish to do [Music]
[Music] and now we join the big-game hunt the
show which asks the question can a nice girl like wicked wicked find new games to play everyday with the help of a
small stuffed doll named Ringel Evo well cricket what are you up to today we were
going to play hide and seek but that introduction of yours is so boring that it put the person who draws this cartoon
to sleep again and now there's nothing to hide behind meanwhile unbeknownst to
our friends a sinister figure lurks stealthily in the background you know Ringo I have the strangest feeling that
unbeknownst to us a sinister figure is lurking in the background well as long
as we cannot go hidin and seekin I'll teach you a different game that's Puerto Rican so before you can so much as say
duo Diddy my hat trick will drop us off in New York City yeah now to follow them
and commit various and sundry insidious indecencies and now as Long John
spoilsport zooms off in his nasty plane lousing up the ecological balance with
non-biodegradable Nahas as he goes let's look in on cricket and Ringo in New York
City we're glad you can visit us this is a merry occasion we welcome you both to
El Barrio our parents moved from Puerto Rico to here we all can speak English
but let's make it clear we also speak Spanish so we think we should call our
home here el barrio our neighborhood now let's play a game good idea
the game is called el gato yell a ton in English that means cat and mouse it's
done by forming a circle of kids like this one one player stays inside the
circle to hide he's the mouse the cat's thoughts the game standing outside the kids in a circle hold hands and move
around the cat moves the other way until he's found a pair of hands he thinks
that he can break through to capture the mouse that's all he has to do
now to cheat my way to victory like the CAD that I am oh who let the
cat out of the bag all I have to do is to hit the mouse with this trap and then
reel em in it's easier than taking candy from a baby
of course you run into some pretty tough babies from time to time he got that
from a baby no wonder he lurks but tell me Long John are you sure this
trap works why don't you step inside and find out yeah I've always known you were
a rat but now are you not pushing the resemblance a little too far
well Long John I hope you've learned your lesson I certainly have next time I'll keep my
big trap shut - link Oh - OH - sorry
people me you people my name is Karen my grandpa
gave me a pet crap my friend Jack came over to see it
where does he eat so stirs like digital conflicts to put looking sugar on no
it's just little except for the water
hello ha ha ha
hi grandpa hi
taking your shoes off she always does that much for just feet hurt I don't
think so where did he come from Japan
maybe then how she in Japan how are you
Jan said something funny today what is funny she saw grandpa take off her shoes
and she said that must be what Japanese people do that's right you should do it
too it's more polite she said they
didn't wear shoes in Japan where did she learn that in Japan everybody wears
shoes but they take them off when they go inside it's a custom like shaking
hands when you greet someone grandpa does it because he learned to do it when he was little there's nothing strange
about that we have Japanese customs in our family like eating with chopsticks
or eating a big breakfast on New Year's Day you knew I'd give it to other people
not really every family has its own customs that they've learned from their
parents and grandparents I'm sure Jan's family does too
let's go play with the crab did you ever put him in the bathtub I don't think so
I don't feel too good today yo stomachache I think so well okay I'll
see you tomorrow don't forget better goodbye
my god why do you take off your shoes well let
me explain when I was a little boy in Japan we live
in a house different from these houses instead of door and windows we had
chosen it worked just like a sliding door except the shorteez covered by
singing white papers we did not have carpet like here in America most of
floor space is covered with tatami tatami made from to regress woven
together we sat on the cushion on the tatami floor like this and it on a
little table about this high we used to sleep on mattresses on tatami during the
day we fold the mattress put it away working on the tatami with Sean
it would break inside the house it's very clean because we never run around
with shoe so it's habit for me to take my shoe now
you understand I guess ha all right John
grandpa is it true that you used to live in a paper house and sleep on grass well
something like that do you want to see some pictures yeah I'll be there in a
minute
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music] hi it's woody and here's something nice
that we can learn to make with right it's arrows come down say rice pudding
to you we're gonna do it the way Porto Ricans do take 1 and 1/2 cup of cooked
rice and 3/4 cup of sugar that's right 1
dash of salt 1 cup of milk 3/4 cup of
rate that's it now to the race we must
add 2 tablespoons of buttermilk Mutaz you can now beat up two eggs and
mix everything in a big bowl [Music]
into a 350 degree which is in charge of
espresso chair it says it's up to you what's fun to do when you hear sounds of
all kinds the different pictures come to mind do you listen just with your ear or
can you see a picture that matches what you hear [Music]
listen now what do you see is it a bee is it a tree something special something
different each of us can see whatever we like whatever says me
[Music]
why didn't you duck peewee I did you sir but hot car no I was going to
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
[Laughter] [Music]
[Music]
[Applause] [Music] [Applause]
[Music] what makes people's here look and feel
different everybody's hair is made of the same thing but it looks and feels
different depending on the color and the way it grows out of your skin let's
pluck a few hairs and look at them up close you know in the whole world there
are only three kinds of hair there's curly hair and straight hair and
wavy hair which is in between just looking at hairs however won't tell us
why they grow the way they do every hair on your head or your body goes out of a
tiny hole called a follicle a follicle is something like a tiny flowerpot that
the hair grows out of and the roots stay inside of if you have round follicles in
your skin then you have straight hair if your follicles are flat you have curly
hair and if your follicles are in between shaped like ovals then you have
wavy hair here's a way to show how this happens using three cake decorators each
filled with play-doh one has a flat opening and one has a round opening and
one has an in-between oval opening you squeeze the cake decorators and see what
happens curly straight
[Music] and wavy
the shape of your follicles and the color of your hair comes from your parents and your grandparents you can
have red hair like your mother and curly hair like your grandmother any
combination of hair color and hair shape is possible so that's what curly hair
comes in all colors and so just drain hair
and so does in between waving it Rajib but no matter what kind of hair you have
the most important thing is that you like it and you take good care of it straight you wash it and brush it
Coleman braided and don't forget to love it
[Music]
[Music]
[Applause]
what a beautiful what are they doing there they're getting them ready for the race
is he a jockey yeah why is it Jackie so small oh they have to be small and light
so the horse can go as fast as possible
look go go
what's the name of the horse I miss old etapa - yo Philly chestnut I wish I
could be a jockey did you know that in the early days of horse racing in America most of the jockeys were black
and one of the most famous jockeys who ever raced was Isaac Murphy it was born
on a farm in the days before cars and airplanes were invented and the only way
that people could get around was by horse and buggy [Music]
as a stableboy he always wanted to be a jockey he won
his first race when he was 14
in 1884 Isaac Murphy won his first Kentucky Derby as a matter of fact he
won again in 1890 and again the next year
he seemed to have a natural feeling for horses as if he were born to ride
three Kentucky Derby's all together Isaac Murphy was the best jockey the
world has ever known and now we join the big-game hunt the
show that asks the question can a nice girl like cricket wicked find new games to play every day with the help of a
small stuffed doll named Ringo Livio in a three-minute cartoon with no
commercial interruptions today we find our friends at the zoo do you know how
much that introduction bores me come on Ringo let's go play hopscotch oh
well as long as we're here let's take a look at the animals what this is no
animal this is Long John spoilsport celebrated scoundrel mendacious mellow
factor misbegotten miscreant and all-around rotten person that's me I
also let the air out of balloons when nobody's looking how did you ever get
yourself put into a cage at the zoo are you klepto what fiendish concoction of
crookedness and rottenness will these to attempt well as Long John and klepto
make they get away let's look in on cricket and Ringo its announcers like that who make me wonder why I ever went
into the cartoon business in the first place how would you like to have a strange voice following you around all
day introducing you it isn't easy being a star let's learn to play hopscotch a
different way we'll see other Chinese Americans play they call our hopscotch
Tao Fang say the last square which you're seeing now is known as
public-house it's really quite a helpful square you stand on both feet when
you're there you throw your stone in then hop to it fetch it
hop out watch me do it then you do it
once again and keep on till you've got 210 and if you do without a Miss you
mark your first square just like this that's a private house now see and no
one steps there now but me the player with the most private houses
will win and now if you're ready get set and begin yeah
hold everything I demand a have a turn give me a turn dear little cricket in
the name of our friendship no way Long John then give me a turn in the name of
fair play not a chance give me a turn or I'll tell the
announcer where he can find you have a turn Long John yeah
another trial yes hey you pardon me
but somebody's seen a crooked cigar smoking kinda repast to this away another triumph for good sportsmanship
and niceness curses I may be a CAD but
that's the last time I'll ever team up with a bounder this is a story a singer
Billy Goat a Puerto Rican folktale now once upon a time
way up in the islands of Puerto Rico there lived a little old woman and a
little old man they lived in the little house touch
with straw and they share a vegetable garden and I used to spend hours talking
about the nice dishes that they would eat out of those vegetables and also
evolving money that they would get of the vegetables when they took them to market now one day when the Hmong went
to the window to look at the garden he call Maria Maria come here quickly a
billy goat I know she said it is a billy goat and has come to eat our garden she
began to cry don't cry sorry mom I am going down there and I'm going to make that billy goat go
away he went up he passed the billy goat on his back he said when was the a
standard in the goat please don't eat our garden we go turn around ready to
[ __ ] him with his horse and the poor among run of the hill calling me
Maria open the door the Billy Goat is after me tumble on the chair and
suddenly something stung BrahMos ear Ramon shook his head and down came on
the very families and a little black ant for dos sat among not Maria La Villita
yes seller mediator I have come to help you your son Maria but your son Ethel what
can you do I can make that billy goat go away if I do that what will you give me
anything you want Sarah mom Cece said Maria anything you
want her me get a thought for a while and then she said I would like to have
one little sack of sugar and one little sack of flour for my family will you
give me that yes yes and Maria then or Villita crawl down to the field she
began to climb up the legs of the billy goat and came right to one year and
stung him out said the Billy Goat and the rest one day to scratch his ear but
then let me give a close to the other ear and sunk him ouch ouch ouch and thinking
that he was all covered his aunt's Billy Gould leapt out of the vegetable patch
and he began to roll and roll and roll and roll until he was out of sight that
was the end of him but Lorna Geetha went back to Maria and Ramona and they
gave her a little sack of sugar and a little sack of flour and then Ramon and
Maria continued living in their little hot as happy as contented as before and
so following Colorado this story has ended [Music]

learn a little more about snakes sure you can take our boa for instance
[Music] and this is a South American boa
constrictor all right he'll grow to be about eight nine feet now the best way
to handle him is when you're first picking him up grab him in the back of the head once he calms down you can let
him go but always let your hands follow him he likes to be secure and feels nice
you know I mean feels very good to him and they eat rats mice best thing to do
is to keep them frozen in your freezer I'm sorry you got here a little late I have to close up now okay I'm sorry

mrs. Harris we're not trying to g*ng up on you just that we all feel the same way a snake as a menace to the
neighborhood well then you are sort of ganging up on me aren't you no I really
want to hear your side too we know that nothing is ever all black and white I've know what you mean
it's just that I think my son should be able to have the kind of petty wants as long as my husband and I agree look mrs.
Harris we feel the same way but can't Martin have a less dangerous pet I'm deathly afraid of snakes
I know why you feel that way because the snake looks so different Martin's even accused me of being
prejudiced but all the best authorities agree that a snake is not a dangerous pet but isn't it true that some snakes
find their food by hanging in a tree and then grabbing an animal and squeezing it to death well I don't know what happens
in the jungle but this one is always very well fed excuse me it's my son
hello mr. Richardson you just the man I need which please explain to my neighbors that a snake is not a
dangerous pet sure actually I like to give all of your little talk is there someplace we could sit comfortably sure
that's going to live oh come on sit down

what makes people get some tan well almost everybody likes to and can get a
suntan no matter how dark or light their normal skin color is we all get
different amounts of suntan however and some of the show our Sun tans more than others
where does the extra color come from well it comes from the same stuff that
gives you your natural color it's called melanin underneath the surface of your skin a whole lot of tiny
brown dots of melanin give you your color from the time you're born melanin protects your body from the Sun
something like sunglasses protect your eyes if you don't have very many melanin
dots in your skin then you don't have very much protection but if you have a lot of melanin then you have more
protection these first melanin dots soak up some of the sun's rays but after
you're out in the sunlight for a while your body begins to make extra melanin to take care of the emergency this extra
melanin is your suntan and stays with you as long as you get a lot of Sun it
usually goes away in the winter isn't it silly that some people don't like black or brown people to swim with them but
want to get as brown as they can themselves it sure is
I must show Lily my new hairstyle I must
show Oriol my new hairstyle aurilla look Lily look
