Habits of Mind

Habits of Mind (HoM) help us change our behaviour so that learning becomes easier. We have to choose to behave as learners. With practice these behaviours should become second nature. Once we develop as someone who wants to learn we will always be able to achieve to the best of our ability.


This term we are focussing on 4 HoM's that will support us with our learning concept of Challenge and in particular our preparation for our school production.


Persist: We will become more successful if we don't give up easily. If it doesn't work one way, then we will try another.
Ask Questions: We will become more successful when we ask good questions and set ourselves tricky problems.
Use 5 Senses: We will become more successful when we use sight, sound, taste, touch and smell to find out.
See the Funny Side: We will become more success when we can see the funny side and have a laugh.
