When do you see that habit - or a glimmer of that habit - being employed right now by your students? What triggers or helps to encourage that habit? A very small glimmer of this habit can be seen when a few of the students refer to posters and visual aids posted in the room.

How can we structure our classrooms to help support that habit? What scaffolds, environment, or strategies can we employ to encourage the ongoing development of that habit? Model daily for the students to see.

What changes could we make to our student projects or classwork to promote that habit? Implement more learning that takes place outside the classroom.

What conversations could you have with your students to discuss the Habits of Mind?
