In order to retrieve her ball, we must go through the steps of creative problem solving.
1.) Brainstorm - In a group, students will think of as many ideas as possible. Accept any idea given, even if it seems silly. Sometimes bad ideas have a way of sparking good ones from a team member.
2.) Evaluate - Is this a good idea or not? Students must decide if it will work, is easy or possible to do, costs money, or if it is safe.
3.) Decide - Which idea is the best way for Honey Bear to get her ball back? Looking at the criteria, the group decides on which strategy to use.
4.) Act - The group will put on a skit showing Honey getting her ball.
I have two packets that present problems for practice in creative problem solving.

If Honey Bear can't reach the ball herself, she should call 1-800-BALL-RETIEVER to get someone to come out and help her.
Barbie girl seems to be popular today
Joyce,
Creative thinking is a pup's cup of forte. They know how to go about getting what they want and it's a funny process to watch them achieve their goal. :) Thanks for joining me on the dance floor today, my friend. Have a boogietastic week and happy Thanksgiving!
My son was in 4th grade when that song came out. I was between jobs and did some volunteering in the school, and heard the Barbie song at every school fathering. It's really catchy, but after a while, I just didn't want to hear it anymore. Now, over 20 years later....I love how catchy it is! Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
Great idea... Okay, love the first tune and I kept petting "Charlie" that's my Chocolate Lab and I turned it up just for him. hahaha Now this Barbie Girl tune well the video... Whoa, that tune was cute in the beginning, but now I remember why I didn't listen to it very long back when it came out. hahahaha Anyway, just wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! hugs
