Hurricane Sandy is a very big storm in the USA. It has effected New Jersey and New York but New York had the biggest effect. We watched a clip when the storm first hit. It had flooded out New York's subway and had taken away 11 lives at that stage. It has caused over 80 billion dollars worth of damage and has caused power out all around the city. We used De Bono's hats to talk about Hurricane Sandy. There were 6 hats with different meanings. One for facts, here are some: a crane snapped in half and New York was prepared with a 1 meter flood wall. Feelings: Sadness is caused by death, Scared because they might die of lack of food and supplies. Problems: losing your house, insurance, the clean up, short on petrol. Solutions: Being ready and building stronger bottoms of buildings. Benefits: Getting ready if another storm comes and less power bills. Thinking: (these are my thoughts) Did it effect The Statue Of Liberty? So those are all the hats. It was a very interesting must do for my must do's and picks sheet.
