Teaching empathy with books - Have you filled a bucket today?
Have You Filled a Bucket Today?
If you watch just one video on my blog, make it this one.
Have You Filled a Bucket Today? is a truly delightful and powerful book about kindness, empathy, and everyday choices. I read it on day one with my K3 students and refer back to it throughout the year whenever behavioural issues arise.
The bucket-filling metaphor is simple enough for very young learners, yet meaningful enough to guide classroom discussions all year long. It works beautifully for social–emotional learning, behaviour management, and building a positive classroom culture.
Also available in Japanese. Opens Amazon in your region where available.
