Last year A couple years ago I made a set of Six Hats posters to use in my grade four classroom. I combined several useful Six Hats resources into one piece of paper per hat. In addition to De Bono’s book, I primarily relied on a list of questions and sentence stems related to each hat (including mention of Bloom’s taxonomy), and a Six Hats Summary (which is a great visual cue to use when brainstorming).
Anyone is welcome to download and print these posters. If you use them, I’d love to hear how. Even more importantly, if you have any suggestions, comments, or requests, please tell me; I want to make this set as useful as possible.
Thanks to David Hill, Sarah Shannon, and other teachers at Young Hoon Elementary School in Seoul, South Korea for helping me field test these posters.

The six hat posters are great, especially with the prompts beside the hat. I will use these in my classroom, and tell some colleagues where to find them.
Thanks
