After we read the book, we had a discussion clarifying how bucket fillers and the bucket dippers behave. We sorted these as a class and we made lists in our journals.
We also made our ID’s that show we are Official Members of the Bucket Filling Brigade!
We have our little buckets in the classroom and whenever we see a classmate filling someone’s "imaginary" bucket we will make sure we write that action down and place it in the student’s bucket!
Bucket filling has made a huge difference in many classrooms around the world.
We want to make a difference in our classrooms and in our communities as well!
- to create more rewarding lives and positive culture as we increase kindness, respect, and courtesy.
- to decrease mean-spiritedness and negativity
- to teach us how to keep your bucket filled by understanding and rising above occasional bucket-dipping situations.
