Season 10, Episode 1 of 13

PYRAMID PUZZLE Bob and Lofty are going to construct the museum's new pyramid exhibition building. Lofty is excited that he gets to use his new claw attachment. Upon arriving at the site, they discover that Tiny has already built most of the pyramid for an archaeologist, Anish Bose, who wants to put his exhibits inside the central chamber. Lofty wants to finish up the work by himself but places a stone at the entrance of the pyramid by mistake, trapping Bob, Wendy, and Anish inside! Lofty realizes that his eagerness to do too much on his own caused the problem, and that working as a team with Tiny is much better. Learning Goals: --To learn to share responsibilities and work as a team. --To introduce the history of an ancient culture. --To learn the structure of a pyramid. FLOTSAM AND JETSAM While clearing trash from Fixham Beach, Lofty collects all of the driftwood he can find. Scoop is baffled that Lofty thinks the driftwood is beautiful and tries to throw it all away. When Muck hauls the debris to the dump, Lofty spots a prize piece of wood, and grabs it, causing the trash to fall back into the water! With creative problem-solving and teamwork, Bob uses the driftwood to create a floating barrier in order to collect the flotsam and jetsam. Later they use the driftwood to decorate the path to the beach. Even Scoop is impressed. Learning Goals: --To understand importance of keeping the environment clean. --To learn how to reuse garbage. --To learn how to use limited resources to solve a problem.
