Wright Jets are Bucket Fillers!
You might have noticed the colorful bulletin boards in front with Bucket Filler Pledges from ALL of our students! The bucket-filling idea comes from the two books:
Did You Fill a Bucket Today? and How Full is Your Bucket? These books reinforce the concepts of "deposits" and 'withdrawals' and 'emotional bank accounts" from Stephen Covey's The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.All grade levels have had guidance lessons on being a "Bucket Filler" (emotional deposits) and not a "Bucket Dipper" (emotional withdrawals.) Please use the Bucket Filler sheets to catch someone "filling a bucket" ,with a positive word or deed. There is a bucket in the hall to put your bucket filler sheets daily. You can be creative in your classroom with using the bucket filling idea in your classroom to promote prosocial behaviors!
