Once upon a time, in a land far away,
Lived a child with a bucket to play.
He loved to collect all sorts of things,
Like pretty stones and shiny rings.

One day he found a bridge to cross,
And a certificate he earned with no loss.
He was proud of himself and his achievement,
As he walked across with great excitement.

He saw the centroid of the bridge up high,
And felt so small beneath the sky.
But he knew he had the capacity,
To cross the bridge with such tenacity.

As he reached the other side,
He felt a sense of joy and pride.
He looked back at the chain of events,
That led him to this accomplishment.

And with his certificate in hand,
He felt like he could conquer any land.
For he learned that with hard work and dedication,
Anything is possible with imagination.

So remember, my dear little friends,
The journey is just as important as the ends.
And with a little bit of effort and passion,
You too can achieve your desired satisfaction.

Reflections

1. What did the child learn on his journey to cross the bridge?
2. How did the child feel when he received his certificate of achievement?
3. Why is it important to have a bucket when exploring new places?
4. What is the centroid of the bridge, and why did the child notice it?
5. What message do you think the story is trying to convey about hard work and determination?
