<br>6 Think Hats is one of speaking activities that is based on a system designed by Edward de Bono with an ESL twist. Basically, 6 Thinking Hats is a tool for group discussion and individual thinking involving 6 colored hats . Just like de Bonou2019s idea, each color represents a mode of thinking which allows the students to expand their views on a particular thing or issue. I love this speaking task because it helps students to think logically and become better speakers. For details visit us: https://englishteaching101.com/speaking-activities-english-class/<br><br>
