In class we discussed what it meant to belong, how members of the community, in the story How the Water got to the Plains, behaved and what the consequences of their behaviour were.

Below is a table that contains the Six Thinking Hats discussed in class.
Answer the question: Why did the two mains characters in the story steal the water?
Choose one colour hat (or perspective) and add your thoughts (2 or 3 sentences) in the adjoining cell of the table.
