Dear Mom and Dad:
Have you filled a bucket today?
Today we learned a new concept about being bucket fillers. We learned that we
all have an invisible bucket. When our bucket is full, it means that we are
feeling good with good thoughts. When our bucket is empty, it means that we are
feeling sad. Even our pet has an invisible bucket! When I dip into someone’s
bucket I am also dipping into mine. When I am filling someone’s bucket I am
also filling my own!
We drew a picture of how we can
fill someone’s bucket. You can use this terminology at home about being a
bucket filler and a bucket dipper.
In kindergarten we made a promise
to be bucket fillers each day.
Happy Thanksgiving! There is no
school on Monday.
Question of the day: Post on the
blog something you did that filled someone’s bucket.
Love,
Kindergarten

CRANSTON SCHOOL NEEDS 7 BABIES FOR ROOTS OF EMPATHY
We have 7 families signed up so far to participate in the Roots of Empathy program for this school year, and are in need of 7 more. Babies who are 6 months or younger are ideally suited to participate as 'baby teachers' in this most worthwhile program. Babies and and their parent(s) are asked to visit the school for a half hour per month to be present in classrooms with students, teachers and a trained Roots of Empathy Coordinator. We are need of babies for Mrs. Richardson, Ms. MacEwen, Mrs. Grummett, Mrs. Rumpel, Ms. Weldrick, Ms. Klein, Mrs. McEvoy and Ms. MacMillan/Mrs. Sedgewick's classrooms. If you have a baby in this age range, or know someone else who does, I encourage you to consider joining us once a month! You do not need to have a child attending Cranston School to participate or be a resident of Cranston community - all babies are welcome :)
If you would like more information or to sign up for this fun-filled program, please contact Susanne Jones at the office, 403-777-6267 ext '0'. We are hoping to begin the program the last week in October so please register as soon as possible. We love our Baby Teachers!
Thank you!
Mrs. Kinsman
