Eight Days Until Marquette

Our team is competing at the Marquette tournament in eight days. WOW!

As far as being ready, ...we still have work to do.  Our skit is still being worked on, the project needs a model, the robot needs programming, and the binder needs organizing.

However, we have the team banner stand put together, the team pictures have been taken, and we are all having fun!

Our team is formally presenting our project tonight for the Waukesha 4-Leaf 4-H club because we are not ready with the skit yet. The skit is our way of presenting our project and inovative solution to the judges at the tournament.

Our team name is TEAM Temp - Assure and the product name and slogan for our inovative solution is Infra Temp!  The temptastic way to test your food. Do you like it?

The Past Week

In the past week we have gotten together more often and we have programed two missions!  We are working 3 or 4 more missions also.  The skit is coming along, and so is the binder to show to the judges all our research.   We are also going to work on the display boards soon.

The Marquette tournament is two weeks away and we are going to be there.

This weekend, we built the stand for our banner.  With a little paint, we will be ready for the tournament and EVERYONE will be able to spot us coming! 

We are also hopeful that we can do some fundraising before the tournament too.

The Skit And Robot

We are making progress!

The team is doing well so far.  Our robot is going well and has been made thinner.  We also have a basic skit done.

We have had a few people respond to our Survey Monkey survery but we are still  hoping that more people will take our survey.  It only takes a few minutes.  Here's the link if you need it: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6XF7D5P

The tournament is only a few weeks away.

We are Having Sara  from the Heath Department come to our meeting on Monday to help us learn more about food safety.

Things to work on:

We have to come up with the team name and the name of our project.
We also have to write the skit and work on the robot.
The banner still needs a design.
We need to build the model of the project.

Side note:

Our board is built, but a few of the pieces are the wrong color, so we are contacting the Lego company to tell them.  At least the pieces that are incorrect are the fish and the cow and things like that, not the most essential pieces.

Thank you for reading.

Making The Skit And Building The Robot

At the meeting the boys worked on the robot and the girls worked on the skit. The skit is based on a nursery rhyme that we are changing up to add the things that we want to tell the judges.
The robot is going good so far and they are making it thinner.
The team name is undecided so far, and the binder still needs a design. The Banner needs to be designed too. The hats are on their way. The t-shirts are being embroidered.
There are only three weeks and a few days until the tournament.

Thanks for reading.
