Are you a bucket filler?

W.A.L.T choose actions that helps our classroom to be happy and safe. So today i'm presenting my explanation writing on bucket filling. So I hope you enjoy my writing and become a bucket filler today!

How Does A Bucket filler work?

Everyone in the world carries an invisible bucket just like you and me. So anyone is able to put kind thoughts and good feelings into anyone else's bucket. So this is an explanation of the process of bucket filling and how it works.

So anyone one can fill anyone else’s bucket with kind thoughts and good feelings right? So when you be a bucket filler you fill up the other person’s bucket and your bucket get filled up as well. So for example you show manaakitanga to the speaker. That shows that you’re being a good listener because you showed respect to the speaker and that would fill their bucket, your bucket, and also it can help others to become good listeners and bucket fillers too. By being a bucket filler it can make that person’s day.

Manaakitanga can be shown to others by helping, supporting, or playing with others and including them in a game of basketball. That means caring about other people, filling their buckets and also it is helping others to show manaakitanga and fill buckets.There are so many ways you can be a bucket filler. Another thing is that by filling another person’s bucket it could help them be successful in their life because you are filling their bucket with kind thoughts and good feelings. They can also be encouraged to fill other people’s buckets up. So that is how a bucket filler works.

So filling other people’s buckets with kind thoughts and good feelings can have an amazing and wonderful effect on every person in the whole entire world!

When It Rains It Pours

It was a stormy and rainy saturday, I woke up and I had seen the horrendous rain come down, bit by bit, drop by drop. It rained as if it was the most dangerous hurricane. It became a tragic day for us. I was a terrible disaster.

An hour later the power went out,I quickly ran into the living room and Shouted “The power went out!” It just got so boring out home. Having no power and the hurricane like weather It just became so boring at home. All we had to play were board games such as: checkers, jenga, connect 4 and some other games. They kept me and the family company as it was raining and the power was out. It started to get a little bit fun at home playing board games with my family.

Finally the power cut had ended and the rain started to stop. I immediately had shouted out “yay the power cut had ended and it’s starting to clear up!”. It was a huge relief that the power cut had ended and the rain had started to go away.

I thought that day was a bit fun playing board games with my family. I really enjoyed that day.
