0:00:04 > 0:00:07'Say hello to Ambrose the apprentice,
0:00:07 > 0:00:12'wrestling with maths in his new job at the Grecian Pizza Parlour.'
0:00:12 > 0:00:15Perimeter, outside. Area, inside.
0:00:15 > 0:00:20'Meet the Measure family, using maths in fun and familiar ways
0:00:20 > 0:00:22'to help with life at home.'
0:00:25 > 0:00:29'And hang out with the Ugly Sisters and Buttons in the Panto House.'
0:00:30 > 0:00:34'Only maths can make sense of the silly scrapes they get into.'
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Me machine's on the blink!
0:00:37 > 0:00:42'These videos are lesson starters for teachers of Key Stage 2 Maths.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49'They explore space, shape and measure.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56'And each ends with three questions,
0:00:56 > 0:00:58'increasing in levels of difficulty.'
0:01:16 > 0:01:20'Ambrose has just got a job at the world-famous Grecian Pizza Parlour.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24'He's being trained in all aspects of pizza making.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29'I don't think this is part of the training, though.'
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Ahem! What are you doing?
0:01:34 > 0:01:37Er, nothing.
0:01:38 > 0:01:44'The boss says he's going to pop out, so Ambrose should carry on cleaning until he gets back.'
0:01:44 > 0:01:47PHONE RINGS Answer the phone, Ambrose.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50It could be customer. Answer the phone.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Hello, Grecian Pizza.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Can I have five Pepperoni Sun God pizzas?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58'It is a customer.'
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Five Pepperoni Sun God pizzas.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04When will you pick them up?
0:02:04 > 0:02:07- 20 minutes.- 20 minutes.
0:02:07 > 0:02:0920 minutes.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11- OK, thank you.- Bye.
0:02:11 > 0:02:16I have to go out, Ambrose. You will have to do this yourself. Here.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19'Ambrose hasn't been taught how to make a Pepperoni Sun God yet.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22'The recipe is in this book.'
0:02:22 > 0:02:26Inside, the recipe for the Pepperoni Sun God.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29'His boss explains the most important things about this pizza
0:02:29 > 0:02:34'are the cheese radius that go out from the middle like rays of the sun.'
0:02:34 > 0:02:37OK, I'll get some dough, I'll show you. You take the dough,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40you get a bit of flour, you put it down there like this.
0:02:44 > 0:02:49'His boss shows Ambrose how to make a perfect circle out of dough.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51'Good, isn't he?'
0:02:52 > 0:02:55You spread the secret recipe tomato ketchup.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59'He spreads the tomato sauce over the area.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03'Then he estimates where the middle of the circle is.'
0:03:03 > 0:03:06And then we put the column in the middle.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10So we now know where the middle is.
0:03:10 > 0:03:15And then you take the cheese, OK?
0:03:15 > 0:03:19And put this from the middle to the edge.
0:03:20 > 0:03:25You see? You take this, you put it from the middle to the edge.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27The radius.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30The radius is from the middle to the edge.
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- What's the radius?- From the centre to the edge, I just told you this!
0:03:34 > 0:03:38From the centre to the edge is the radius.
0:03:38 > 0:03:43From the edge to the edge all the way across is the diameter.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47It's simples! Look, you do this, I've got to go out.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51Five pizza! Remember! Good boy.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55'Will Ambrose remember what a radius is?
0:03:55 > 0:03:59'Can you remember what a radius is?'
0:04:54 > 0:04:57'Ambrose is an apprentice pizza maker
0:04:57 > 0:05:00'at the world-famous Grecian Pizza Parlour.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02'He's taking his new job very seriously.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07'He's even come in early today, before the pizza parlour is open.
0:05:07 > 0:05:12'It looks like he's making something. Can you tell us what you're doing?'
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Yeah. I've been working on some new ideas at home
0:05:15 > 0:05:17and I've come in today to try one out.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20I've got an idea for a new pizza. Here, have a look.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23- It's going to be fantastic. - 'Can you tell us what's in it?'
0:05:23 > 0:05:26No, no, no, it's a surprise. I want it to be a surprise.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31But it is going to be brilliant and I think the boss might even put it on the menu.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- So, yeah, I'll... Thanks. - 'Off he goes.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41'He begins with a classic tomato sauce base. Nicely spread there!'
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Pepperoni!
0:05:44 > 0:05:46'Now pointy pieces of pepperoni.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49'Look how neatly he's laying them down.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54'But he's only putting pepperoni on part of the pizza.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59'Look at that. He's made a right angle. This is clever.'
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Asparagus.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06'Asparagus! Now, this is very interesting.
0:06:06 > 0:06:11'And it looks as if he's going for another angle with those nice straight spears.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26'What else is he going to use? Cherry tomatoes.'
0:06:28 > 0:06:32- Mm.- 'And blueberries?
0:06:33 > 0:06:35'He's done exactly half the pizza so far
0:06:35 > 0:06:40'and he's made exactly the same angle as he did with the asparagus slice.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44'Baby sweetcorn now. What a doozy!
0:06:49 > 0:06:53'And that's an acute angle of 30 degrees.
0:06:55 > 0:06:59'And he's painting it with a coffee glaze. Ooh, a nice touch.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03'What's he going to put on next?
0:07:03 > 0:07:06'We've come to expect the unexpected from this young man.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11'Huh. I didn't expect that, though.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17'Hm. Or that.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21'He's either a madman or a genius! It's a fine line.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37'Into the oven it goes. Now he just has to wait.
0:07:37 > 0:07:42- 'I bet those angles are going to taste amazing!'- Phew!
0:07:48 > 0:07:51'Look at the pizza.'
0:08:53 > 0:08:57'Ambrose is an apprentice at the world-famous Grecian Pizza Parlour.
0:08:57 > 0:09:02'He's learning all aspects of the profession and is now able to roll out a perfect circle of dough.
0:09:04 > 0:09:08'This is how professional pizza makers make their pizza bases.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14'They throw them in the air like that.
0:09:15 > 0:09:20'And the dough gradually stretches out to become perfectly thin and round.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26'Not quite like that.'
0:09:26 > 0:09:30Ambrose, my boy, don't worry. It take me years to perfect
0:09:30 > 0:09:32the perfect pizza circle.
0:09:32 > 0:09:36'Luckily, Ambrose has got a nice boss.'
0:09:36 > 0:09:39PHONE RINGS
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Hello, Grecian Pizza.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46'The customer is a maths teacher who's having a birthday party.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50'He's ordering pizzas for his guests but he wants something quite unusual.'
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I'd like to order 50 pizzas, please!
0:09:53 > 0:09:58- 50 pizzas?- But I don't want round ones. Too boring.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00I want equilateral triangles.
0:10:00 > 0:10:05Equal-what-ily...twangles? What?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Equilateral triangles!
0:10:07 > 0:10:10It's a triangle where all three sides are the same length
0:10:10 > 0:10:14and all the angles are the same size, too.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17So whichever way you look at it, it always looks the same!
0:10:22 > 0:10:26Oh, and I want triangular toppings as well, please. 50 of them.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29- Cheers, mate!- Bye.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36It's impossible! I spend my whole life making round pizza.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Triangular pizza? Not possible.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43- I think I can do it.- You're the man for me, Ambrose. You go ahead.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49'First Ambrose makes an equilateral triangle out of dough.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56'An equilateral triangle is one in which the three sides are equal
0:10:56 > 0:10:58'and all the angles are equal, too.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04'Then he cuts little equilateral triangles out of food.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10'He's getting the hang of this, isn't he?
0:11:10 > 0:11:13'Triangles are lots of fun to play around with.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25'Look at all the patterns he's making.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27'That looks like tessellation to me.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34'What does it look like cooked?
0:11:35 > 0:11:41- 'Nice!'- Oh, Ambrose, this is incredible! The triangular pizza!
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Equilateral triangular pizza!
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Next time, I get you to make dodecahedron.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40'Today Ambrose the apprentice at the Grecian Pizza Parlour
0:12:40 > 0:12:44'has been given a new job - pizza delivery boy.
0:12:44 > 0:12:49'He has to deliver nice hot pizzas to four addresses. Oh, here's the boss.'
0:12:49 > 0:12:52Ambrose, I want you to fill in the timetable
0:12:52 > 0:12:54because I want you to do this very quickly.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57The journey time, you fill in all the times, yes?
0:12:57 > 0:12:59When you get to the place, write down...
0:12:59 > 0:13:02'Ambrose has to write down the arrival time at each address
0:13:02 > 0:13:06- 'and how long each bit of the journey takes him.'- Yes? Good boy.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10'The pizza parlour clock says it's quarter past four in the afternoon
0:13:10 > 0:13:14'but his boss gives Ambrose his mobile phone which has a 24-hour clock.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17'The time on the phone says 16:15,
0:13:17 > 0:13:20'which is the same as quarter past four.'
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Don't forget to fill in the timetable.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33'Ambrose goes as fast as he can to the first delivery address,
0:13:33 > 0:13:36'Dave's Motors on Calculator Crescent.'
0:13:41 > 0:13:45- Who ordered the pizza?- That's me. - There you go.- Thank you.- Enjoy!
0:13:50 > 0:13:5316:21.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57So I left the pizza parlour at 16:15, it's 16:21.
0:13:57 > 0:14:0015, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
0:14:00 > 0:14:04That's six minutes. Six.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13'It then takes him ten minutes to get to the flats on Rhombus Road.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17'He looks at the time...
0:14:22 > 0:14:26'..works out how long it took him and writes down the time on his timetable.'
0:14:26 > 0:14:29Hexagon Hill!
0:14:39 > 0:14:42'It takes 15 minutes to get to Hexagon Hill.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48There you go! Thank you.
0:14:48 > 0:14:53'Ambrose is really up against the clock now. No time to write anything down but the time.'
0:14:53 > 0:14:55- HE GASPS - Got to go!
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Pizzas are getting cold.
0:15:00 > 0:15:05'He still has to get to Perimeter Place. It's 11 minutes away.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07'Will he get there while the pizza is still hot?
0:15:07 > 0:15:11'Will he be able to fill out the missing bits on his timetable?'
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Using the 24-hour clock...
0:16:13 > 0:16:18'Ambrose is an apprentice at the world-famous Grecian Pizza Parlour.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23'Today he's decorating the upstairs restaurant for a sweet 16 party.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25'It looks good, doesn't it?
0:16:25 > 0:16:29'Ambrose's boss is bringing a heavy box up from the basement.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35'It's part of his plan for how to make teenagers have a smashing time.'
0:16:35 > 0:16:38This is my secret weapon.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41To make the party go with a swing-a-ding-ding,
0:16:41 > 0:16:45first of all, they eat the pizza.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Then we dance a little dance.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Dance the dance.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54GREEK MUSIC
0:16:54 > 0:16:56And then we smash the plate.
0:16:58 > 0:17:02'Cool! Ambrose thinks teenagers will love that.'
0:17:02 > 0:17:04I want everyone to have a smashing good time
0:17:04 > 0:17:08so put the plates three deep around the perimeter.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12'Ambrose's boss wants him to lay out the plates in piles of three
0:17:12 > 0:17:15'all around the perimeter of the room.'
0:17:16 > 0:17:22- What's the perimeter? - The perimeter is the outside of the shape, like the room.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24The area is the inside.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Perimeter, outside. Area, inside.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Perimeter, outside. Area, inside.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Perimeter, outside. Area, inside.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37- You got that?- I've got that. - Good boy! You're on your own.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43Perimeter, outside. Area, inside.
0:17:43 > 0:17:47'Ambrose knows now. The perimeter is the line around the outside.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50'The area is all of the inside.'
0:17:52 > 0:17:54HE GROANS
0:17:55 > 0:17:57'Wow, those boxes are heavy.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01'He doesn't want to have to lug too many of them up the stairs.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03'What you thinking?'
0:18:03 > 0:18:05I'm thinking I might have to use some maths here.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08How do you work out a perimeter?
0:18:09 > 0:18:12'To find the perimeter of a rectangular room,
0:18:12 > 0:18:15'you need to measure the length and double it,
0:18:15 > 0:18:19'then measure the width and double that and add the answers together.'
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Hey, I might be able to work that out.
0:18:29 > 0:18:31And I'm going to use plates.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36'Ambrose is measuring the restaurant in plates.
0:18:36 > 0:18:41'He measures one side by counting how many plates long it is.'
0:18:41 > 0:18:4330.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46'The restaurant length is 30 plates long.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49'Now he does the same on another side.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56'And the restaurant is 20 plates wide.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01'Once Ambrose has worked out the perimeter
0:19:01 > 0:19:04'and how many plates he'll need to go round it three deep,
0:19:04 > 0:19:07'he can work out how many boxes to bring up.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09'But it's quite tricky maths.'
0:19:11 > 0:19:14I need help.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18'Meet Ambrose.
0:20:18 > 0:20:22'He's an apprentice at the Grecian Pizza Parlour.
0:20:22 > 0:20:27'The boss here is famous the world over for his pizza-making skills.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32'He invented the Pepperoni Sun God and the Calamari Colossus
0:20:32 > 0:20:35'and the Minotaur Munch!
0:20:36 > 0:20:40'Today he's going to show Ambrose something that every young apprentice must learn.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45'The secret of how to make lots of pizza bases from a two-kilo lump of dough.'
0:20:46 > 0:20:51Out of this two kilos, we make 20 smaller pizza, like this.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55It's beautiful, like my children. You do this.
0:20:55 > 0:20:5720... Write this down.
0:20:57 > 0:21:0120 small pizza from the two kilo.
0:21:02 > 0:21:07'Ambrose's job today is to make 20 small pizza bases that are all the same.'
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Come on, then, get on! Mush!
0:21:12 > 0:21:14'Let's see how he gets on.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23'Hm.
0:21:23 > 0:21:26'How are you feeling about this, Ambrose?'
0:21:26 > 0:21:30All right. It's going really well, thank you. I'm really pleased.
0:21:30 > 0:21:35- 'I think all your pizza bases are meant to be exactly the same.' - Yeah, 20. Yeah.
0:21:37 > 0:21:41- 'Do you think you'll get 20 out of that?'- Er, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:21:41 > 0:21:45'Ambrose is meant to be making 20 small pizza bases.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49'He doesn't seem to be doing a very efficient job, does he?
0:21:52 > 0:21:57- 'Ambrose, don't you think you should use your weigh scales?'- What for?
0:21:57 > 0:22:02'If he doesn't get this right, all the pizzas will be different sizes, won't they?
0:22:02 > 0:22:04'What can you do?'
0:23:04 > 0:23:09'Meet the Measure family, Mum, Ethan, Abi and Dad.
0:23:09 > 0:23:13'Dad's on breakfast duty this morning and he's making pancakes.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16'His pancake recipe is for four people,
0:23:16 > 0:23:20'which gives all the Measures one nice big pancake each.'
0:23:21 > 0:23:26- Who's for the first one?- Me, me, me! - Oh, yes! Come on, quick, quick.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29- Me, me, me!- Fantastic.
0:23:30 > 0:23:34- Mind yourself.- Look at this. - Ta-da!- Oh, look at that!
0:23:34 > 0:23:37'Mm. I like pancakes, don't you?
0:23:37 > 0:23:42- 'The Measures like theirs with lots of maple syrup.'- Delicious.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45- 'Dad can't make them quick enough.' - Come on!
0:23:45 > 0:23:49'He's showing off now. One for Abi.'
0:23:49 > 0:23:53- Maple syrup, please!- 'One for Mum.' - Thank you, darling.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57'They don't last long, do they?
0:24:01 > 0:24:04DOORBELL RINGS I'll get it, I'll get it.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06'Oh, someone's at the door.'
0:24:08 > 0:24:12- Look who it is!- Hi!- Hello! - 'It's Nikita and Eli.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15'They can smell something delicious.'
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- What are you eating? - Pancakes. Would you like some?
0:24:18 > 0:24:20- Yes, please.- Come on in, then.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25'Now they want pancakes, as well. Two each, please. And everyone else wants another one.'
0:24:25 > 0:24:30- BOTH: Oh, yeah!- Dad, stay in the kitchen. We need more pancakes.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Thanks, Dad!
0:24:34 > 0:24:37'But Dad's recipe only makes four.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41'Can you help him work out how to make enough pancakes for everyone?'
0:25:50 > 0:25:53'Ethan Measure is a martial arts whizz kid!
0:25:54 > 0:25:57'He's won so many medals, he can barely stand up!
0:26:00 > 0:26:02'But there is one medal he's yet to win.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06'The symmetry medal.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10'It's better than all the others because it's made of chocolate.
0:26:11 > 0:26:17'To win the symmetry medal, Ethan has to be able to find the line of symmetry on an object
0:26:17 > 0:26:19'and karate chop it down that line.'
0:26:19 > 0:26:21Hi-yah!
0:26:21 > 0:26:24'Like that! Well done, Ethan.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29'The line of symmetry is the imaginary line
0:26:29 > 0:26:31'where if you cut something in half
0:26:31 > 0:26:33'then hold either half up to a mirror,
0:26:33 > 0:26:36'the object will appear whole again.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42'Some lines of symmetry are easier to spot than others.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46'Let's see if he's found it on this pineapple.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50'Back luck, mate. Too spiky. Try again.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57'Has he got it right this time?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01'Yes, that looks like a pineapple.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09'Ethan's mum has prepared a selection of things for him to practise on.
0:27:12 > 0:27:17'Some of these have more than one line of symmetry and some have none at all.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21'Can you help him find the line every time
0:27:21 > 0:27:24'and win that golden chocolate medal?
0:27:36 > 0:27:40'Ethan has to find the lines of symmetry in a number of objects.'
0:28:29 > 0:28:34'It's a Sunday afternoon and the Measures are playing a family game.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36'It's called the origami challenge.
0:28:37 > 0:28:42'It's very simple. Everyone draws a shape to fold out of paper
0:28:42 > 0:28:44'and then they put all the suggestions in a hat.'
0:28:47 > 0:28:49OK, has everybody put theirs in the hat?
0:28:49 > 0:28:53- Here we go. Drum roll, please. - THEY TAP ON TABLE
0:28:55 > 0:28:59A regular pentagon? Who put that in there?
0:28:59 > 0:29:02Yes!
0:29:02 > 0:29:06'The task is to fold a regular pentagon. Quite a tricky shape.'
0:29:06 > 0:29:08Here we go. Dad, start the timer.
0:29:08 > 0:29:11- OK, losers.- 'And they're off.'
0:29:12 > 0:29:14'They've got two minutes.
0:29:16 > 0:29:21'The word "penta" comes from the Ancient Greek language and means five.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24'Pentagon means five angles.
0:29:26 > 0:29:30'A regular pentagon is a polygon with five equal sides
0:29:30 > 0:29:33'and five equal angles.
0:29:36 > 0:29:39'You can find the pentagon shape all over the natural world.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44'And in man-made objects, too.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49'How are they doing?'
0:29:59 > 0:30:02- And I am finished.- ALL: Ohh!
0:30:02 > 0:30:05- TIMER RINGS - 'Time's up.'- Well done, Abi.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08'Let's have a look at who's got it right.
0:30:08 > 0:30:11'Ethan's has only got four sides, so he's disqualified.
0:30:13 > 0:30:19- 'What about Mum?' - One, two, three, four, five, six! No, OK, that's no good.
0:30:19 > 0:30:24'Dad's got five sides, but it's an irregular pentagon.
0:30:25 > 0:30:29'Abi's is the best. Let's see how she did it.
0:30:32 > 0:30:36'Abi is using a sheet of A4 paper.
0:30:36 > 0:30:40'She folds the bottom corner up to the opposite corner and smoothes it.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51'She's done that to make a crease.
0:30:52 > 0:30:56'Now she unfolds that and folds one half in
0:30:56 > 0:31:00'and lines it up with the centre crease and smoothes it.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03'Now she does the same on the other side.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08'And there we are, a regular pentagon.'
0:32:01 > 0:32:03'Abi Measure loves to play the guitar,
0:32:03 > 0:32:06'but her old one won't keep in tune.
0:32:06 > 0:32:08'She's had it since she was little.
0:32:10 > 0:32:13'One day, she sees the guitar of her dreams.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16'A Clapton Uber-Pluck.
0:32:16 > 0:32:19'Pretty cool!
0:32:19 > 0:32:24'If only she had that guitar, she could play like a rock goddess!'
0:32:24 > 0:32:26ROCK MUSIC
0:32:27 > 0:32:32'The only problem is, a Clapton Uber-Pluck costs £300.
0:32:38 > 0:32:40'Time to raid the piggy bank.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43'But Abi has never been that good at saving.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46'That's not enough to buy a plectrum, let alone that guitar.'
0:32:46 > 0:32:48Mum!
0:32:48 > 0:32:52What's the matter, love? Ooh, look at that! Gorgeous, isn't it?
0:32:52 > 0:32:56- I bet you want one of those, don't you?- Mm-hm.- Fantastic.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59- What, you're asking me for it? - Please?
0:32:59 > 0:33:02- £300?- I'll pay you back.
0:33:02 > 0:33:05You'll pay me back? Hang on, I've got a good idea.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09You can do some chores around the house. There you go.
0:33:09 > 0:33:11And I'll go and have a nice cup of tea.
0:33:11 > 0:33:13There you go, love.
0:33:16 > 0:33:19'For the next few months, Abi is a very busy girl.
0:33:20 > 0:33:23'Once a week she vacuums the landing and stairs.
0:33:23 > 0:33:26'For that she gets paid £1.50.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34- 'For cleaning the bathroom once a week...'- Money, please!
0:33:34 > 0:33:38- '..she gets £2.' - One pound, two pounds.- Thank you.
0:33:40 > 0:33:43'She gets £1.50 a week for cleaning out the guinea pig,
0:33:43 > 0:33:46'the gerbils and the hamster.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51'Add to this her £4 a week pocket money...
0:33:52 > 0:33:55'..and £6 a week from a neighbour for babysitting.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01'Abi saves every penny she gets.
0:34:03 > 0:34:06'Her brother Ethan puts an armed guard around her room.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09'You can never be too sure when there are robbers about.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14'One day, Abi can wait no longer.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18'It's time to count the money and she thinks she's got enough.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20'Look at all that cash.
0:34:26 > 0:34:31'Can you help her figure out if she's got enough to buy that guitar?
0:34:43 > 0:34:47'Abi earned £1.50 for vacuuming the stairs,
0:34:47 > 0:34:49'£2 for cleaning the bathroom,
0:34:49 > 0:34:52'£1.50 for cleaning out the pets,
0:34:52 > 0:34:56'£4 pocket money and £6 for babysitting.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07'Abi saved 193 £1 coins,
0:35:07 > 0:35:09'nine £5 notes,
0:35:09 > 0:35:12'88 50 pence pieces,
0:35:12 > 0:35:15'and a jar of 20p coins.
0:35:27 > 0:35:32'Abi weighs the 20 pence coins and they come to 0.855 kilograms.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09'Mr Measure is meant to be clearing out all his old toys for the school jumble sale,
0:36:09 > 0:36:11'but he's having a trip down memory lane instead.
0:36:11 > 0:36:14'He used to love that book.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17'Oh, what's this?
0:36:25 > 0:36:27'Many years ago, Dad made a time capsule
0:36:27 > 0:36:30'and filled it full of treasures.
0:36:30 > 0:36:35'He put in all kinds of precious things, like money, and said goodbye to his favourite toys.
0:36:38 > 0:36:41'And then he buried it in the woods.
0:36:41 > 0:36:45'He made a map so that one day, when he was older, he could find it again.
0:36:45 > 0:36:50'But for 30 years, that map has been lost.
0:36:50 > 0:36:55'Now he's found it. The directions he needs to find his lost treasures.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00'Before you can say time capsule, he's off to the woods.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07'Mr Measure's brought along everything he needs.
0:37:07 > 0:37:09'A spade, a tape measure, a metal detector
0:37:09 > 0:37:13'and his son Ethan with his trusty compass.
0:37:15 > 0:37:18'The map says to start at the old climbing tree
0:37:18 > 0:37:21'and walk north for ten metres.
0:37:22 > 0:37:26'It's Ethan's job to find north on the compass.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29'That's it.
0:37:30 > 0:37:33'So Dad walks north for ten metres.
0:37:36 > 0:37:39'Stop!'
0:37:40 > 0:37:42Ten metres. OK.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46'He's winding him in like a fish.
0:37:46 > 0:37:50'Next go east for 12 metres.
0:37:52 > 0:37:56'Ethan knows that the needle on a compass always points to the north.
0:37:57 > 0:37:59'He's lined up the needle with N.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02'And from there, they work out where east is.
0:38:03 > 0:38:06'Can you see it?'
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Never...eat...
0:38:08 > 0:38:12..Shredded...Wheat. East!
0:38:12 > 0:38:15'Never Eat Shredded Wheat, NESW,
0:38:15 > 0:38:20'is a good way of remembering the four points of the compass in the right order.
0:38:20 > 0:38:22'And, of course, you can eat Shredded Wheat.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27'Next they have to walk to the southeast for nine metres.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31'This is halfway between south and east.
0:38:34 > 0:38:36'Then north for 23 metres.
0:38:41 > 0:38:42'Stop!
0:38:42 > 0:38:46'The final instruction is go west for four metres.
0:38:47 > 0:38:50'That's it, they've found the tree.'
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Riches, here we come!
0:39:51 > 0:39:54'It's wash day at Panto House.
0:39:54 > 0:39:58'Looks like Buttons has been doing the Ugly Sisters' washing for them.
0:39:58 > 0:40:02'Large, soggy undies. Ooh, poor Buttons.
0:40:02 > 0:40:07'Angular and Graphica are too busy watching MasterCook to help.
0:40:09 > 0:40:14'Time for Buttons to peg out the washing to dry.
0:40:19 > 0:40:22'Going well so far.
0:40:26 > 0:40:29'Oops!
0:40:29 > 0:40:34'Looks like that line might break. What are you going to do now?
0:40:36 > 0:40:39'Maximum weight 2,000 grams.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43'That means there's a limit to how much you can hang up.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45'And some scales.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48'The scales are there to weigh the washing, Buttons.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51'So you'll have to weigh some bloomers.
0:40:53 > 0:40:57'Let's see how heavy the Ugly Sisters' undies are.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02'Each bloomer weighs 250 grams.
0:41:03 > 0:41:09'How many bloomers have you got? One, two, three, four...
0:41:10 > 0:41:12'..five, six, seven,
0:41:12 > 0:41:15'eight, nine, ten.
0:41:15 > 0:41:17'Ten bloomers.
0:41:17 > 0:41:20'Oh, and what's that at the bottom?
0:41:21 > 0:41:27'Oh! It's the Ugly Sisters' extra-thick tights to stop the leg hairs from peeping out.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29'You'll have to weigh those, too.
0:41:32 > 0:41:36'Those tights are heavy. They weigh 315 grams.
0:41:39 > 0:41:44'The line only takes 2,000 grams. I don't think you can hang everything up.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49'Oh, dear. Looks like Buttons is a bit stuck.
0:41:49 > 0:41:52'Let's see if we can help him put the washing out.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55'It's morning at the Panto House
0:42:55 > 0:43:00'and Angular, the Ugly Sister, is waiting for the post.
0:43:00 > 0:43:04'She's been waiting like this for a week. I wonder why.
0:43:09 > 0:43:13'Oh, what's this? A royal scroll?'
0:43:13 > 0:43:16Oh, by heck!
0:43:16 > 0:43:19'So this is what all the fuss is about.
0:43:19 > 0:43:22'Prince Charming and Cinderella have invited the Ugly Sisters
0:43:22 > 0:43:27'to their Christmas Eve ball. It's on the 24th December.
0:43:28 > 0:43:32Wait till he gets a load of this!
0:43:32 > 0:43:35'December is ages away! It's only June now.
0:43:36 > 0:43:40'Graphica has bought a packet of magic seeds for this very occasion.
0:43:40 > 0:43:44'It's a grow your own pumpkin carriage.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47'From seed to carriage in just six months.
0:43:49 > 0:43:54'That's a very big seed. She's planting it straight away.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02'Ooh, that's fast.'
0:44:02 > 0:44:05- I've never seen one like that before.- Nor grown quick as that.
0:44:05 > 0:44:07'Today's date is the 6th June.
0:44:07 > 0:44:12'And it's got to be ready by the 24th December.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15'I wonder if she's given it enough time.
0:44:16 > 0:44:20'What's this? Angular has got some magic seeds, too.
0:44:20 > 0:44:23'A grow your own Prince Charming?
0:44:23 > 0:44:27'From seed to Prince Charming in just 14 weeks.
0:44:31 > 0:44:37'It's the 6th June now and the ball is on the 24th December.
0:44:38 > 0:44:41'Angular can't work out when to plant it, er, him.
0:44:42 > 0:44:45'Can you help her work it out?'
0:44:45 > 0:44:49Oh, help! Help! Buttons! I don't know.
0:46:02 > 0:46:06'Puss in Boots has arrived unannounced at Panto House.
0:46:06 > 0:46:09'The Ugly Sisters are not impressed.
0:46:09 > 0:46:12'Puss has been lounging on the sofa eating sugar mice.
0:46:12 > 0:46:15'And to make things worse, his boots stink.
0:46:15 > 0:46:17'Really stink.'
0:46:17 > 0:46:21Oh, you bad, bad, bad pussycat!
0:46:21 > 0:46:23You should be ashamed of yourself!
0:46:24 > 0:46:29'Oh, nothing's working. They need a cunning plan.'
0:46:32 > 0:46:35We'll get that moggy's boots.
0:46:35 > 0:46:38'The sisters mean business.
0:46:54 > 0:46:57'Those boots stink worse than the acting.
0:47:00 > 0:47:03'There are six unusual washing options.
0:47:07 > 0:47:10'It's on the maximum setting. The red one.
0:47:12 > 0:47:14- 'That should do the job.' - That should do the job.
0:47:22 > 0:47:25Oh! What's that? Oh!
0:47:25 > 0:47:29Graphica! Me machine's on the blink!
0:47:32 > 0:47:36'That super-stinky wash has sent the machine into overdrive.'
0:47:47 > 0:47:50Oh, spring meadow!
0:47:50 > 0:47:52'Well, the boots may be clean...
0:47:54 > 0:47:56'..but the dial is stuck.'
0:48:04 > 0:48:06'Look at the dial.'
0:49:05 > 0:49:08'The Ugly Sisters, Graphica and Angular,
0:49:08 > 0:49:10'are very busy catching up on a bit of culture.
0:49:10 > 0:49:15'Too busy to help Buttons who's been tidying up Panto House all morning.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18'Now he's looking forward to a nice cup of tea
0:49:18 > 0:49:20'and a fondant fancy or two.
0:49:21 > 0:49:25'But the Ugly Sisters have left him a to-do list.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28'Oh! Oh, dear.
0:49:28 > 0:49:31'Oh, dear!
0:49:32 > 0:49:36'What a pile of dirty mugs and plates.
0:49:36 > 0:49:38'They've filled up the sink!
0:49:39 > 0:49:42'Oh, it's going to take him ages.'
0:49:42 > 0:49:45- KNOCK AT DOOR - 'Someone's at the door.'
0:49:49 > 0:49:50Jack and Jill!
0:49:50 > 0:49:55- 'Oh, it's Jack and Jill from up the hill!'- How are you?- Oh, very well.
0:49:56 > 0:49:58'Jill loves Buttons.
0:50:00 > 0:50:04'She thinks he looks like Superman, but shorter.
0:50:04 > 0:50:07'Jack thinks this is really uncool.
0:50:07 > 0:50:11- 'Sisters are so embarrassing.' - So embarrassing!
0:50:11 > 0:50:16- And what can I do for you? - 'Jack and Jill can't be bothered to go up the hill,
0:50:16 > 0:50:20- 'so they want Buttons to fill a pail with water.'- I suppose so.
0:50:26 > 0:50:29'But Buttons has a problem.
0:50:29 > 0:50:32- 'The sink's too full.'- It won't fit.
0:50:32 > 0:50:36- 'Jill's got an idea.'- Use the jug, Buttons.- Don't use the jug.
0:50:38 > 0:50:40'But Jack disagrees.'
0:50:40 > 0:50:43- Use the bottle!- Ignore him. - Oh, the bottle.
0:50:44 > 0:50:48'Buttons has another idea.'
0:50:52 > 0:50:54- Use the bottle.- Ignore him, use the jug.- Bottle!
0:50:54 > 0:50:58'Buttons just wants to fill the pail so he can have his tea and cake.
0:50:58 > 0:51:02'Can you help Buttons fill the bucket up with water?'
0:51:02 > 0:51:05What's with him?
0:51:12 > 0:51:15'The pail holds 7.5 litres.
0:51:16 > 0:51:19'The mug holds 500 millilitres.
0:51:27 > 0:51:29'There's a one litre jug,
0:51:29 > 0:51:34'a two litre bottle, and a 500 millilitre mug.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01'Here's a clue.'
0:52:22 > 0:52:25HE HUMS "HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU"
0:52:25 > 0:52:29'How exciting! Looks like it's somebody's birthday today.
0:52:29 > 0:52:33'Graphica, the Ugly Sister, has made a great big cupcake.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40'Oooh! That's a lot of candles.
0:52:44 > 0:52:48'Oh! It's Erica the Puppet's birthday today.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51'The birthday cake must be for her.
0:52:53 > 0:52:57'Surely she can't be 40 years old, she's just a kid.'
0:52:57 > 0:53:01- You're not 40 years old, are you? No.- '40 months old?
0:53:03 > 0:53:05'So Erica has a birthday cake every month?
0:53:07 > 0:53:11'That's just an excuse for Graphica to eat a lot of cake.
0:53:13 > 0:53:17'Here's the other Ugly Sister, Angular,
0:53:17 > 0:53:20'with what looks like another birthday cake.
0:53:22 > 0:53:24'Has Erica got two birthday cakes?
0:53:27 > 0:53:31'Obviously not. What's Angular up to?
0:53:33 > 0:53:37'Ah. She's made a cake for an aubergine?'
0:53:37 > 0:53:39Guess whose birthday it is today!
0:53:39 > 0:53:42'And another 40th?'
0:53:45 > 0:53:47- Happy birthday!- 'Weeks!
0:53:47 > 0:53:50'So you must be 40 weeks old.
0:53:51 > 0:53:55'So Mrs Aubergine must have a birthday cake every week!
0:53:55 > 0:53:58'That's an awful lot of cake Angular's got to eat.
0:53:58 > 0:54:02'And she's going to need an awful lot of candles, too.
0:54:06 > 0:54:11'Hm. Where's that huge pile of candles gone?
0:54:11 > 0:54:15'Oh, looks like Graphica has used them all up.
0:54:18 > 0:54:20'Uh-oh!
0:54:23 > 0:54:26'What a lot of mess!
0:54:26 > 0:54:31'What a lot of birthdays. Let's see if we can sort this lot out.
0:55:23 > 0:55:27'The Ugly Sisters are giving their mouths
0:55:27 > 0:55:29'a lot of exercise this morning in Panto House.
0:55:29 > 0:55:34'They're munching on piles of cakes. But it's making them fat and spotty.
0:55:36 > 0:55:39'They love eating cake whilst watching the telly,
0:55:39 > 0:55:42'but Buttons keeps getting in their way.'
0:55:42 > 0:55:45Buttons, what you doing, you silly monkey? Go on!
0:55:45 > 0:55:48'Buttons doesn't think this exercise routine is working.
0:55:48 > 0:55:53'He's the only one getting exercise, cleaning up all their mess.
0:55:55 > 0:56:00'Buttons is tidying up all the toys they've stolen from young children at last year's panto show.
0:56:03 > 0:56:06'Oh, a TV remote. I wonder if it works.
0:56:09 > 0:56:10'Hm.
0:56:12 > 0:56:15'I don't think it's working the telly.
0:56:15 > 0:56:18'Now Buttons has a way of getting his own way back!
0:56:20 > 0:56:23'Time to get some exercise.
0:56:23 > 0:56:26'Off they go!
0:56:28 > 0:56:31'Buttons makes them turn right out of the door
0:56:31 > 0:56:33'and travel along the road.
0:56:33 > 0:56:37'He wants them to go a bit faster.
0:56:37 > 0:56:40'Ah, fast-forward should do it.
0:56:43 > 0:56:46'He makes them walk for 30 metres.
0:56:48 > 0:56:50'Then Buttons presses right.
0:56:54 > 0:56:57'He makes them go along for 45 metres.
0:56:58 > 0:57:00'Then he presses right again.
0:57:03 > 0:57:07'They go down this road for 80 metres.
0:57:09 > 0:57:11'Then he makes them go right again.
0:57:13 > 0:57:16'They're definitely getting exercise now.
0:57:19 > 0:57:22'Oh, no. Buttons has lost them.
0:57:23 > 0:57:26'They've gone down this road for 20 metres.
0:57:26 > 0:57:31'He needs three more instructions to get them home. Can you help him?
0:57:37 > 0:57:40'Look at the map. This is the route
0:57:40 > 0:57:43'the Ugly Sisters have walked.'
