Current Events

L.I: To critically examine a current event using De Bono's thinking hats.
Today for a reading can do I have decided to do the current events task which is the 6 hats - White, Red, Yellow, Black, Green and Blue. For this tasks we had to use an article from one of the news site Kiwi Kids News or Time for kids. I chose to use the Kiwi Kids News since I have had experience using and being on it before. The article I read was "Kiwi students take on Manukau project". We had to make a copy of a google slide where we had to do our work on. The White was about facts and so we had to give information about the article, the Red hat was feelings so we had to write about how people affected by the event feel and if there are any disagreements, the Yellow hat was benefits so we had to write some positive aspects of the event, the Black hat was cautions and so we had to write some negatives aspects of the event, The green hat was creativity so we had to write a possible different outcome, and lastly the blue hat was thinking so we had to write what the author wanted us to learn about the article. You can click through the slides and see my different answers for each hat and questions.
