Chuck and his friends will use problem-solving strategies such as teamwork, thinking creatively, taking responsibility for their actions, perseverance when they encounter obstacles, and asking for help when trying to handle a frustrating situation. The program also demonstrates how making mistakes is a natural part of any problem-solving, and how everyone has strengths and weaknesses. |
