Our guidance counselor, Mrs. Kiewe, has visited every classroom to reintroduce our school-wide bucket-filling challenge. Let’s use the blog to fill some buckets … no bucket-dippers here!
When filling a bucket, remember to be specific about the behavior that you observed and how it made you feel.
I’ll start … I want to fill Cooper B. and Josh L.’s buckets. Both boys are in my math class and commented on our Edmodo page to answer a question that another student had posted. I want to thank both boys for being such active, responsible members of our learning community. You make me feel proud!
Please add your own comments to fill someone’s bucket. Remember that to stay safe on-line, we do not use any last names when commenting. Mrs. Austen approves all of our comments, so it may take up to 24 hours for your comment to appear. Thanks for being patient!
Mr. B
As a principal, I am lucky to work with the high caliber of teachers and staff we have at Lutherville Lab! However, as a person, I am in awe of the people who work here. There is so much caring, kindness, compassion, and love in this school. Thanks to each of you (yes, even the amazing people I neglected to thank in this week’s staff announcement- Diane Frijia, Judy Henderson, Deidre Austen, and Ilene Kiewe). Can you imagine this school without them…or even each of us? We make this place GREAT in spite of all the changes in education policy and curriculum. Sincerely—-THANKS!!!
Tara D.
This school is great but without Mr. B it would be one of those days where all you want to do is lay in your in you bed. Mr. B is so important to our school.
Ava P.
I would like to fill Chloe T.’s bucket because she is active in class and she likes to make everyone laugh. Chloe is also a very nice friend.
Mrs. McGee
Mrs. McGee’s Kindergarten Class would like to thank and fill Mrs. Kiewe’s Bucket because it was so nice that she had all her kindergarten friends for a lunch bunch. We love having lunch with her.
Linna Z.
I would like to fill Neeti S.’s bucket because she is smart, funny, caring, and last but not least she is a great friend.
Sam B.
I like how Brendan C. helps me when I am having trouble.
Kylee S.
I would like to fill Lydia L’s bucket. I think she is very, very, very funny!!! She helps me with my work sometimes. She is a very good friend.
Claire L.
I like how Sierra W. helps me and is always there for me when somebody is mean to me. She always tells me to forget about the people who bully me.
Carter B.
Cole K. cheers me on when I’m sad and he helps me with my problems. He’s a good athlete.
Lydia L.
Sierra W. always brings Korean food and she always helps me. She is funny, kind, and helpful.
Ellie K.
I would like to fill the whole school because we all do a great job with being respectful to each other and none of us bully. I agree with Tara and Mrs. McGee’s class because without Mr. B, Mrs. Kiewe, all of our teachers and staff this school would be a mess. So that is why I want to fill the whole school’s bucket.
Deidre Austen
Ellie, I love how you piggybacked on some of the comments that have already been made. I find that we have better on-line “conversations” when everyone takes time to read the comments that have already been posted. I want to fill your bucket for being such a great role model on the blog! 🙂
