Proud of My Name -
sesame street

Elmo, Gabrielle, and Rosita join a basketball team! They meet Coach Jones and their new teammates and begin to practice. Coach Jones calls out each member of the team, but Rosita realizes she didn't get a turn because the coach said "Rosie" instead of "Rosita." As practice continues, the other teammates also start calling Rosita, "Rosie," making Rosita feel frustrated. Her name is "Rosita," not "Rosie" and she's proud of her name. Rosita is hesitant to correct the coach. Elmo and Gabrielle understand that it's hard to tell grown-ups when they've got something wrong. They help Rosita gain courage to tell Coach Jones that she likes to be called "Rosita." Coach Jones apologizes and is happy she told her. Coach Jones tells the rest of the team to call Rosita by the correct name. Names are a big part of who we are and it's important to get them right.

About Sesame Street:

SESAME STREET has garnered more than 100 awards, including 101 Emmys, two Peabodys, four Parents' Choice Awards and an Action for Children's Television Special Achievement Award.

The series delivers academic and social education that prepares kids for grade school.

Since its premiere, the show's base curriculum has been set by academic research on preschoolers.

Encore episodes focus on music and art and how these tools can be used to develop the whole child - the cognitive, social, emotional and physical attributes.

In addition, "Elmo's World," which looks at the world through the eyes of a three-year-old, continues as a featured segment.

Themes include birthdays, pets, teeth, families, games and more.
