I want my students to understand that they control their emotions and impulses not the other way around! Using the How Full is Your Bucket series and the collection of social skills books by Julia Cook I will teach my students the social skills needed to make appropriate behavioral and social choices on a daily basis. The other books will be used to help change their attitudes from a fixed mindset to a growth mind set. The bulletin board materials will be a daily reminder of what they can achieve no matter their circumstances. I will use the bubble gum machine and gumballs as well as the bucket pocket chart to reward my students' good choices and growing mindset. Your donation to my project will help fill our buckets and grow our brains creating students in charge of their emotions that are ready to learn and grow!
