Is your bucket filled?
This week in year 3 we read a story by Carol McCloud called ‘Have You Filled a Bucket Today?’
This heart warming book encourages positive behaviour as children see how rewarding it is to express daily kindness, appreciation, and love. Bucket filling and dipping are effective metaphors for understanding the effects of our actions and words on the well being of others and ourselves. Every child made their own envelope ‘bucket’ which we are going to display in the classroom for our classmates to write kindness cards to fill up each others buckets.
It will be lovely looking back at the end of Year 3 to remember all the lovely messages our classmates wrote to us.
Dear Ms Miller,
I think that the the lesson was really important as we were talking about how to spread love to each other in our daily life.
