One of my favorite books is Have You Filled a Buck

One of my favorite books is Have You Filled a Bucket Today? by Carol McCloud. Students can identify with it. It makes sense to them. It is a great way to teach kindness and empathy. I read it at the beginning of the year and students use bucket filler and bucket dipper all year. Do you read this book at the beginning of the year?

Prepping all the birthday cups today. I put it on the birthday student’s desk before they arrive along with their crown. You should see their face when they arrive. It’s pure magic!

Having a predictable environment is very important

Having a predictable environment is very important to students. That’s why I made this craft book, so students know what to expect when. It’s premade for K-2 but it’s editable so you can modify the cover and crayon prompts.

If we want children to be the best students they can be, we have got to teach them how. That includes managing their bodies, emotions, communication, actions, etc.
Do you teach SEL in your classroom? I do, and it’s a BIG focus in my first grade classroom for the first few months. It’s time well spent and we reap the benefits for the rest of the year.
