Habits of Mind

What are Habits of Mind? They are habits or strategies successful people turn to when they have no idea what the solution is. QUESTions will learn and put into practice one habit a week beginning with Persisting.  Habits of Mind will become a part of our classroom culture as we continually use the verbage associated with Habits of Mind.  Habits of Mind will often be present on assignment rubrics.
