Our Skit

We presented our innovative solution to project judges at the Saturday 12/12/15 Wisconsin Sectional Competition in Mukwanogo.

The setting for our skit takes place on Sesame Street with Oscar the Grouch as the central character. We present our idea to introduce a new character to the Sesame Street cast, Recycle Bin Benny, who would teach children on a daily basis about recycling.

Before our Regional tournament, we conducted research which showed that adding Benny's image to the common 3-arrow recycle logo would help children recognize what items may be recycled, and in which bin to put the items.

The outstanding results from our study helped us to win the Research Award at the Sectional competition!
You can still help us with our survey research before we compete at State too! Check out our survey post for more details.

You may notice our team's unique presentation style. The judges have a rubric to fill out and we like to help them by formatting our skit around the rubric! We go right down the line, starting with the problem identification, through innovative solution and effectiveness.

With this efficient layout, the judges are able to circle every section of their sheet by the time our five minute skit is finished. This presentation style has worked amazingly well for several years and the judges like it too!
