Grade 3

Future Architect. Every small choice is a brick.

Eleven facilitator-led sessions that help 3rd graders build everyday habits: staying organized, managing time, saving money, staying safe online, solving problems, working in teams, bouncing back from mistakes, and speaking up with confidence.

Each 75-minute session has a full script, a story to read aloud, a group workshop, and a printable student workbook. Students learn a simple framework in every module and take home a weekly mission. The last session is a capstone and graduation.
