The habit we are learning about this week is habit 4 - Think win-win. This habit is not an easy one for 6 and 7 year olds to wrap their head around initially! When you think win-win, you take others' needs and wants into consideration. You talk and compromise to find a solution where everyone wins. To illustrate what can happen when we do not have this mindset, we read and discussed Dr. Seuss's The Lorax. Students saw how one individual's choice to only think about himself affected many others in a negative way.
Like all the habits, we will continue to come back to this throughout the year. I would encourage you to use this same language at home as the children are working through issues with siblings or even with friends.
