The Habit of the Mind - Thinking Interdependently, focuses on that phrase, "none of us is as smart as all of us." This habit challenges us to work together to unlock ideas that we simply couldn't reach on our own. It's not just about sitting together; it's about genuinely learning from each other, leveraging different strengths, and understanding that collaboration is a skill that requires intention and practice. In our increasingly connected world, the ability to work effectively with others--to listen generously, contribute meaningfully, and create something together that's greater than the sum of its parts--is essential. By practicing this habit, we help our learners transition from solitary thinkers into effective collaborators who know how to listen, contribute, and thrive in a connected world. In this collection, you will find collaborative digital workspaces, jigsaw learning activity templates, lessons and videos about how to teach thinking interdependtly, group discussion tools, self-assessment rubrics, digital breakouts, Think-Pair-Share and similar variations, conflict resolution/debate resources, reflection tools, global collaboration platforms, low-stakes team-building activities, digital "sticky note" boards, interactive whiteboards, video discussion tools, project manager trackers, and collaborative book creators. Use the resources in this collection to turn "working together" into a deliberate daily practice that celebrates the classroom's collective genius!
