What is a Thinking Routine?

  • Short, engaging patterns of

behaviour

  • Designed to be easy to use

and easy to remember and easy to transfer to a wide variety of topics (research based)

  • Slowing down
  • Making thinking visible
  • Creating habits of mind (frequently engaging

in a behaviour until it becomes routine) What does this mean?

Ability Inclination

(motivation)

Sensitivity

(notice when it’s time to make a thoughtful decision)

People often do not activate dispositional behavior because they simply do not notice opportunities to do so.

Student agency/empowerment is a dispositional outcome. PZ’s research finds that developing habits of mind are comprised of three elements— ability, inclination, and sensitivity.
