-[ Gasps ] Did somebody say Tropical Day?

Mm!

I heard that it was Tropical Day here and I said, "Listen!

Can I please come talk with my friends today, please?!"

And they said sure.

I was like, "Okay," so here I am.

Hello!

It's me, Miss Christal.

Anyway, when I heard about Tropical Day, it made me think about beautiful colors and patterns and rhythms and I thought, hey, we should do some rhythms today.

Let's give it a try.

You ready?

Can you give me that?

Let me hear that.

One more time!

Nice!

Now, our hands are here.

I'm going to say go pa...st each other's hands and hit the elbow, huh?!

Then open it up.

Oh, wow.

Let's put that all together.

Close it.

Up!

Close it again.

Whoo!

That was nice.

Let's try it again.

OMG, this rhythm is really making me think about rhythms we hear in math.

But one of my favorite ways of counting is counting by 10s because it creates a really cool rhythm...

These rhythms just gave me a great idea for a game!

So, in this game, I'm going to call out how many times you have the number 10.

So, for instance, if I were to say you have a 10 four times and I say, "Well, how much do you really have?"

You would say, "10, 20, 30 -- I have 40!"

Yes, you do, friends!

And then what if I say, "Well, this time, you have six 10s"?

Some of you might have already yelled at me, "60!

Because I heard a six, Miss Christal.

That was the big clue."

Mm-hmm.

You hearing that clue?

So, if I were to say three 10s!

That three is a big clue.

Let the number be a big clue for how many 10s you have.

Okay, so, in the game, instead of me saying "I have 10 eight times," which is going to be kind of hard for me to say while I'm doing my rhythm, I'm just going to say, "10 times 8," which really means the same thing as I have a 10, eight times.

Okay.

It helps with the rhythm.

Are you cool with that?

Cool.

Alright.

Ready?

Here comes the first question.

Ready?

Here we go.

My hands are ready.

Are your hands ready?

Alright, let's do this!

I heard somebody say it.

Cool!

Let's try another one.

Yep.

Let's use those numbers as our clues.

I've got it.

You got it?

I'm getting it.

You getting it?

Here we go.

Somebody said it out there.

What?!

Yep.

You guys are so good.

Oh, my gosh.

Counting by 10s, you got something there and...

I couldn't keep up with you guys!

You're really good.

Really, really good.

Y'all be good, now.

See ya next time!
