Description
Professor Quigley: Correct! Hey, let's build "ET" words! We'll start with the word, MET! Whammy, send me an M, please!Whammy: An M for you, and you, and you.
(Lily and Tad seem surprised)
Professor Quigley: Whammy, order up E letters and T letters!
Whammy: Order up, E and T! Here they come! Look and see!
(the E comes out of the Vowel sound, and the T comes tapping in the tube. Cut to Professor, asking Tad what the E says.)
Professor Quigley: What does the E say?
Tad: Eh?
Professor Quigley: What does the E say??
Tad: Eh??? (giggles) Mmm, eh, tt, tt, tt, tt. (takes out his "Best Dad Contest" paper and writes "MET") Mmm, eh, tt. MET!
Professor Quigley: See how useful these words are? And if we order up a J, Whammy?
Whammy: Hey, hey, hey! Letter J!
(The J's all jump on a trampoline, and the first J jumps, on the tube and onto the conveyor belt)
J: Jj... Jj... Jj.
E: Eh.
T: Tt, tt, tt, tt.
Tad: Jj, eh, tt... Jj, eh, tt... Jj, eh, tt. JET!
Professor Quigley: Exactly!
Tad: JET sounds like PET. Try it with the letter P!
(The P pops out with popcorn and lands on a tray with the "ET")
Tad: Cool! Pp, eh, tt! PET!
Professor Quigley: Right again! Pet! Pp, eh, tt. Jet! Jj, eh, tt. Same ending sound, different first letter! What else rhymes with ET?
Lily: GET, SET, LET.
(Song: Word Building Conga (Reprise))
Professor Quigley: First you take the G, gg. Then you add the ET. Put them all together...
Tad: Now you've got GET!
Professor Quigley: First you take the S, sss. Then you add the ET. Put them all together..
Tad: Now you've got SET!
(song raises the pitch from F to G)
Tad: First you take the L, lll. Then you add the ET. put them all together... Now you've got LET!
Professor Quigley: Good job, Tad!
