We sometimes hold others, and ourselves, to unrealistic standards. Using the traditional Lag BaOmer story of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai and the cave, this lesson delves into the idea of allowing ourselves, and others, to make mistakes.
This lesson was written for upper elementary and middle school students. Leaving the Cave is a lesson for high school students based on the same text.
