Classroom Expectations
Bucket Fillers!
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. We can also dip into it. "Bucket fillers" are those who help without being asked, give hugs and compliments, and generally spread their love and good feelings to others. They have a positive attitude, usually wear a smile and say sorry when they make a mistake. There are also “bucket dippers”. Bucket dippers are people who say and do things that make us feel sad.
Our team is full of bucket fillers!
