Grade 3 - Step-up Ceremony
It was a fun-filled day with games, dance, writing notes to each other, recording memories which has been put up as the memory clothesline in the classroom. The step-up ceremony was even more fun where children were guessing the name of their classmates from the titles read. The day ended on a sweet note with cutting the cake. It surely was a memorable day for everyone and the photos below will show the extent of it! :)
We thank Mr. Sai for arranging for the cake delivery on time and also for cake cutting photos. We also thank Ms. Urska for the treasure hunt game which the kids enjoyed a lot!
Before I close, congratulations to all the third graders once again! Enjoy your vacation and we will all meet again in June when you will be sitting in Grade 4! :)

PUT THE GLASS DOWN TODAY!
The Professor began his class by holding up a
glass with some water in it. He held it up for all to see & asked the
students “How much do you think this glass weighs?”
.
’50gms!’….. ’100gms!’ …..’125 gms’ …the
students answered.
.
“I really don’t know unless I weigh it,” said
the professor, “but, my question is:
What would happen if I held it up like this
for a few minutes?”…. .
‘Nothing’ …..the students said.
‘Nothing’ …..the students said.
.
‘Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?’ the professor asked.
‘Your arm would begin to ache’ said one of the student
‘Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?’ the professor asked.
‘Your arm would begin to ache’ said one of the student
.
“You’re right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?”
“Your arm could go numb; you might have severe muscle stress & paralysis & have to go to hospital for sure!”
….. Ventured another student & all the students laughed
.
“Very good.
But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?” Asked the professor.
‘No’…. Was the answer.
“Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?”
.
The students were puzzled.
“What should I do now to come out of pain?” asked professor again.
“Put the glass down!” said one of the students
.
“Exactly!” said the professor.
Life’s problems are something like this.
.
Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.
Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.
.
Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able to do anything.
.
It’s important to think of the challenges or problems in your life, But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to ‘PUT THEM DOWN’ at the end of every day before you go to sleep…
