Room 16 started term 3 by reading the book "Have you Filled your Bucket Today?" by Carol McCloud. We all agreed that we can be bucket fillers and make each other happy everyday.
Here are the buckets we put up in class to remind us that we should be bucket fillers by doing positive things to each other and making the right choices. This is also where we put our positive cards every time we are awesome in our learning. We also get positive cards whenever we use kind words and actions.
These are what Room 16's tamariki has to say about being bucket fillers.
Everybody carries a bucket. I like my bucket to be full. We can be kind to each other and fill other buckets.

Everybody has an invisible bucket. We say nice things and be a bucket filler. If you do bad things, you will dip other’s bucket. I want to be a bucket filler.

Bucket filling is all about kindness like love and hugs. But loving your family is best. Everybody has a bucket but you cannot see it. You can also dip buckets, so be nice!
