During the month of December, the focus in the guidance lessons have been "How Full is Your Bucket"?  If you haven't had a chance to read this book, go out right now, and check it out.  This books explains that everyone has an invisible bucket and that when it is full we feel happy but when it is empty, we feel sad.  It also teaches us that things we say or do can fill or empty buckets.  Our goal in life...how many buckets can you fill in a day?  Here are some of the examples our students came up with:

My hallway window is decorated with ways to be Bucket Fillers for recess, the cafeteria, the classroom, when a friend is sad, and during specials.

Found this game on pinterest.  Students sorted examples of Bucket Dippers and Bucket Fillers.
