Bob the Builder

Putting On A Show

Season 9, Episode 23 of 26

Dizzy's Pirates: Bob and the team are renovating the hilltop theatre, where Mr. Bentley is directing rehearsal for his latest masterpiece, "A Pocketful of Pirates". When Dizzy shows theatrical flair, Mr. Bentley allows her to assistant direct the rehearsal while he runs an errand. Excited but distracted, Dizzy cannot fully focus on either the build or the play. Her mix-ups create havoc, but Bob has a solution. The team builds an elevated wooden track over the spilt cement so that the audience members can get to their seats. The theatre is performance-ready and Bob ends up performing, too, doing a "spectacul-ARRRRRR" job! Learning Goals: To see what an engineer does by making old things better or like new. To see why it is best to ask a question if one is unsure of the correct selection. To promote good listening skills. Spring City TV: Bob and the team are installing a satellite dish for the Spring City News Headquarters. On the build, however, Leo is distracted by the new fishing game on his cell phone. He doesn't secure the dish to Lofty's hook well enough and it crashes to the ground, causes havoc, and finally rolls into the river. Using his real-world fishing skills, Leo hooks the dish out of the water. The project is completed and the six o'clock news bulletin is broadcast on schedule, featuring coverage of the Spring City Rockets' dance show. Learning Goals: To observe the basics on how satellite dishes work. To explore the need to focus on work to be done. To take responsibility for one's actions.
