And this is--

I said, I'm John, and this is--

Elmo, you're supposed to tell everyone who you are.

ELMO: Oh.

Sorry, Mr. Jon.

Elmo can't talk right now.

Elmo's busy making a sculpture.

JON: Oh!

Uh, well that's perfect, Elmo.

Because today's word is sculpture.

ELMO: Oh, right.

Sculpture.

Tell everyone what a sculpture is, Mr. Jon.

JON: OK.

I can do that.

A sculpture is a piece of art that's made by shaping or

carving something, or by putting things together.

As you can see, Elmo is carving his sculpture with a

hammer and chisel.

Elmo, why don't you show everyone your sculpture?

ELMO: Oh, oh.

Elmo's not done right now.

Maybe-- maybe Mr. Jon can show some other sculpture while

Elmo finishes?

JON: Other sculptures.

Uh, right.

I'll go find some other sculptures.

Ooh.

Ah, found one.

Check it out.

This sculpture is made of clay.

Someone molded clay, dried it, and made this sculpture.

Done yet, Elmo?

ELMO: Uh, no, not yet, Mr. Jon.

Uh, you should show another sculpture.

JON: Another sculpture.

OK.

Right.

I'll just look around and find another sculpture.

Ooh!

Ah.

Look at this.

I got another sculpture.

But it's made out of something different.

This sculpture isn't clay.

This sculpture is made out of marble, which

is a kind of stone.

So it's a bit heavy.

OK, Elmo, now can we see your sculpture?

ELMO: Almost, Mr. Jon.

Show one more sculpture!

JON: One more sculpture.

Really?

OK.

You know what?

Fine.

There must be more sculptures lying around.

I'll just go find another sculpture.

Rgh--

ugh--

ah!

OK, I got one!

This sculpture is made out of something totally different.

This sculpture is made out of pieces of metal.

Very, very heavy metal.

Can we please show your sculpture now, Elmo?

Please?

Before I get a hernia?

ELMO: No.

JON: No?

No.

Wha--

whaa!

ELMO: There.

Now Elmo can show his sculpture!

JON: Oh, thank goodness.

Thank goodness, Elmo.

Let's see your sculpture.

ELMO: OK.

JON: Wow.

That is one beautiful sculpture.

ELMO: Thank you.

JON: Oh!

And very lifelike.

ALL: Sculpture!
