September / October Posts

Since I'm just starting my blog, I wanted to play catch up and post some pictures from earlier in the school year!

One of the things I decided to do was read Have You Filled a Bucket Today?.  It really hit home with the students! (Still today, they will say things like "Thanks for filling my bucket!" or "You are a bucket dipper!)  I followed up by reading some of the other books by the same author.  I also read Each Kindness.  It is an AMAZING book.  Check it out here on Amazon!

 Anyway, as a follow up, we created our own buckets.  (I saw this on the Jammin' in the Jungle News blog)  This was the result of our project: 

The kids had a great time making these!

We also made fall kindness trees! On *most* of the leaves, are ways to be kind to others!

To add to our fall setting / theme, we made scarecrows!  I got this idea from The Kindergarten Smorgasboard (He is soooooo awesome!)

Unfortunately, this is all I took pictures of the first 2 months of school. My next post will be all about November (and by golly it was a busy month!!!)
