00:00Saira, we have a new game.
00:02This is the Penguin Pyramid.
00:04What we're going to do is,
00:06using these cups with penguins,
00:08we're going to make a stocking
00:11to make a pyramid.
00:13We can't use our hands.
00:15What we're going to use is this rubber band
00:17that has four sticks.
00:19And our goal is,
00:20we need to make the Penguin Pyramid.
00:23Hopefully, within one minute.
00:25You can do it!
00:26You think?
00:27You can do it, Chris!
00:28What are you thinking?
00:29That's so fast, Chris!
00:33No, it's okay.
00:34We're a team, Saira.
00:36Help us.
00:37Give us time.
00:38Give us time.
00:40Okey-dokey.
00:41Ready.
00:42Set.
00:44Go!
00:45Yay!
00:47Okay, it's a family.
00:56How many?
00:57There!
00:58You can do it!
00:59Two more!
01:00Stocking.
01:01Be careful.
01:03You know?
01:04Okay.
01:10You can do it!
01:13I'm scared, Chris.
01:15You can do it.
01:17Let's put it there.
01:18Let's push it.
01:21Okay.
01:24Okay.
01:25How do we do this?
01:26Oh, my goodness.
01:29Stand up.
01:30Do I have to stand up?
01:33There.
01:34You can do it, Chris.
01:36One, two.
01:37Ready.
01:38Go, go, go, go.
01:42Yay!
01:43Stocking.
01:44You can do it.
01:45You can do it, Chris.
01:46You can do it, Chris.
01:47You can do it, Chris.
01:48We finished the challenge within one minute because we did it in 58 seconds.
01:53Wow!
01:54Nice one, guys.
01:55Just two seconds before the limit.
01:57I believe that we were able to get the cups because of the elasticity of this rubber band.
02:04It's elastic.
02:05It's stretched.
02:06What is elasticity?
02:11Oh, elasticity.
02:12What is that, Chris?
02:13Elasticity.
02:15Elasticity is the ability of an object to return to its original shape after it is stretched like this.
02:22When it is stretched, when you release it, it will return to its original shape.
02:26But remember, there is also a limit to the elasticity of an object.
02:29If the force exerted when stretching is too much, it can be broken or cut.
02:35Yes.
02:36That's why in the game, when we used this, the force we exerted was just right so that the rubber band wouldn't be broken, right?
02:45Our movements should be coordinated at the same time.
02:48There should also be communication so that we won't get stuck.
02:51That's right.
