During the story:
o
Page 9: Ask students to imagine their invisible bucket. They can even imaginethey are holding it right now. Ask them to think about times when they have felthappy. Those times are when their bucket is full. Ask them to think about timeswhen they have felt sad and lonely. Thos times are when their bucket is empty.
o
Page 13: Ask students to give you ideas about how to be a bucket filler.
o
Page 15: Ask students to give you ideas about how to be a bucket dipper. Ask if their bucket has ever been dipped into. Ask if they have ever dipped intosomeone else’s bucket.
o
Page 19: Ask students to think of something they could say to someone in their family to fill their bucket.
Development:
•
Ask students if they liked that story. Ask them if they think it could be true: doeseveryone really carry around an invisible bucket?
•
Bring out a bucket. Even though this bucket is not invisible, we will use it to see whathappens when we do or say nice or mean things to each other.
•
Hand out colourful balls to students. These balls represent the good thoughts that canfill up the bucket. Ask students to think of something they could say to me (the teacher)to help fill up my bucket. As each student answers, they can place their ball in the bucket, helping to fill it up. The teacher should model how they start to feel happier andhappier and better and better as the bucket gets fuller.
•
About half way through the class, ask students to think of something that they could sayor do to me (the teacher) that would make me feel bad. When a student gives an answer,spill some of the balls from the bucket. Model how sad you feel. Ask students whatthey could do to make me feel better.
•
Students will need to think of more ways to help fill the bucket back up.
