In the spirit of Lag BaOmer, and Rabbi Akiva’s teachings: ” love your neighbour as yourself” we brought both classes together to incorporate the themes of teamwork, self-control, kindness, joy, gratitude, forgiveness, modesty and humility with the “Win-Win” mindset ( one of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People®)

Through meaningful discussions and activities, the students focused on understanding how to resolve conflict in a positive way, so that everyone can be happy with the solution.

Having a Win-Win mindset means:

• Seeing life through a lens of cooperation instead of competition
• Balancing courage for getting what you want with consideration for what others want
• Being kind to others and trying to make them happy
• Working to find solutions to problems that make everyone happy

We finished off our time together with spreading kindness and leaving each other meaningful messages.
