We're glad that you're back because you're just in time for a game.
This is a game called I Know It!
I Know It!
Do you know it?
You know how to play.
I will talk about a key word.
When you know which word I'm talking about, raise your hand and say...
I know it!
OK, listen carefully.
The... This word is what you do when you let me see something.
You could also use this word if you let me see how to do something.
I think... I think I know it.
Really? Nathan, you think you know it?
Well, no. I... I know I know it.
I'll show you the answer.
Oh, I already did.
The answer is "show." I know I'm right.
You are. Good job.
And I hope that you got it, too.
Now before we answer some questions, let's review today's conversations.
Hi, Susie! What instrument are you playing?
Hi, Joe! This is my ukulele.
It's so small.
Is it very heavy?
No, it's really light!
How do you play a ukulele?
Like this.
I can show you.
Nice! You're good, Susie!
Can I try it?
Of course!
I don't sound very good.
It's OK.
You just need practice!
I do!
Do you practice a lot?
Yes, I play my ukulele every day.
Watch.
You're very good!
Can I learn?
Sure! I can teach you right now.
Thanks, Susie.
Maybe I can learn some cool songs.
Then I can play them for everyone!
Look at the ukulele.
It has four strings.
I see.
What's next?
I play chords with my left hand.
I use my fingers like this.
What about your right hand?
It makes the music!
How do you play a song?
I just read the music!
How do you do that?
I can teach you in your next lesson!

Well Ginger, I'm playing the ukulele.
Wow! That sounds great.

And you are a great player.
Well, thank you, Ginger.
Hey Ginger, can you play an instrument?
Uh, no. But I can sing.
You can sing?
Yeah, I know some cool songs.
Do you want to hear me?
Uh, well, not really.
(Music).
Ginger, that's not really singing.
Yes, it is.
(Music).
Ginger, please. Please.
Come on, Monkey Man.
You play, and I'll sing!
(Music).
No, I'm not playing to do that.

We hope so because here is question one.

Conversation B tells us the answer.
Susie practices every day.
That's why she can play her ukulele so well.
Here's question two.
Do you play an instrument? Why or why not?

And now it's time to hear the answers from our friends.
Do I play an instrument?
Yes, I do.
When I was young, I learned how to play the piano.
I took lessons for eight years.
It was fun.
I learned how to read music.
Now I don't play the piano very well because I didn't practice.
But I can still read music.
And that's very helpful.
Do I play an instrument?
Well, I used to.
When I was in middle school, I played the cello.
It's a large string instrument.
And then when I was in high school, I played the flute.
I was in the marching band in my high school.
But now I'm a mom.
I don't have much time to play an instrument.
So I like music, but I don't play one now.
Do I play an instrument?
Well, I don't really play an instrument.
But I do love music.
And I do enjoy singing.
So maybe my instrument is... my voice?
I don't know.
I love to make music with my voice.
And I love to listen to music.
and I love to... uh, listen to other people play music with instruments.
Maybe I can learn a new instrument this year.
