This site aims to provide students and teachers with information and ideas to assist them apply the Habits of Mind. Each of the sixteen habits is presented along with information on when to use each habit and strategies to make the process easy. Each page includes a short video that demonstrates the Habit of Mind and could be used as a starting point for discussion.
The pages combine ideas from Making Thinking Visible by providing a set of thinking strategies relevant to each habit. Each of the Sixteen Habits are paired with a series of Thinking Routines modified to encourage application of the relevant Habit.
Students can use the site when they identify a need to apply one of the Habits of Mind but are unsure of how to do so.
As teachers, we will find the site useful when we are looking for a strategy to apply in the classroom to support our students or target a specific Habit of Mind.
Thinking Routines adapted from Harvard's 'Visible Thinking Resource Book'
