10. SIX THINKING HATS
White Hat is for facts, figures
and information.
Remember It = Like writing
facts on a "white'board
- What questions do I need to
ask and what other information
do I need?

11. SIX THINKING HATS
• Red Hat is for feelings.
Remember It = Red for emotion, passion like a
red heart
- How do I feel about this right now? What is
my intuition or hunch about this topic? .

12. SIX THINKING HATS
• Blue Hat - Thinking about thinking.
• Remember It = Blue for the Teacher's Hat
- How did I get to that answer? What have
we done so far and what's next? .

• Yellow Hat - Is for all the good points.
• Remember It = Good like the sun
- Why is this worth doing? How will it help
us? Why will it work? .

14. SIX THINKING HATS
• Green Hat - is for creativity and
growing different or new ideas.

What are some other ways to solve this
problem?

15. SIX THINKING HATS
Black Hat - The Doubtful Thinker
The Crtitical Analysis.
I don't like thinking of it as The Bad Points.
Crtitical analysis is a good skill and much
needed. Using "bad points" conjures
negativity
What caution do we need to take ?What are
the weaknesses of this idea?

and Black Hat
• Don't forget that the hats can be
striped too.
