From Sitting Alone to Standing Tall - Grade 3

Overview

In Grade 3, children embark on an exciting journey of self-discovery and building meaningful connections with the world around them! Through Self-Awareness, students will learn to identify their feelings and name them, building a strong emotion vocabulary that includes understanding emotions like boredom, scared, disappointed, joyfulness, and courage—helping them express what's happening inside their hearts. In Self-Management, they will practice valuable life skills like patience by learning to say "I can wait!", calming their minds through mindfulness and breathing techniques, maintaining personal hygiene, and experiencing the ancient Indian practice of Yoga for a healthy body and peaceful mind. Social Awareness teaches children thankfulness, good manners, appreciating differences and respecting diversity, and developing empathy for animals—understanding that every living being deserves kindness. Through Relationship Skills, students discover that kindness matters in our community, learn to value friendship and teamwork, strengthen family bonding, and develop the courage for support-seeking when they need help. Finally, Responsible Decision-Making nurtures their curiosity, teaches responsibility and honesty, guides them in conflict resolution, helps them navigate media and technology safely, and empowers them to distinguish between fact and fiction. By the end of Grade 3, children will have the tools to understand themselves, care for others, and make thoughtful choices every day!
