Bucket Filling
To help promote character education in our classroom, we read the book, Have You Filled A Bucket Today? This book helps promote positive feelings and attitudes towards ourselves and others. In a new twist on the Golden Rule, Have You Filled a Bucket Today? explains to children that we all carry an invisible bucket in which we keep our feelings about ourselves. When our buckets are full, we are happy; when they are empty, we are sad. It’s important to know that we can fill our own bucket and so can others. All of the students will have a metal colored bucket with their name on it. Students in the class will be allowed to write positive and uplifting notes to students in the class. Each Friday we will have mail day and the students may read their mail and bring it home to share.
