Being a Bucket Filler
This 3 minute video for students features Wilkeson Elementary School Counselor Carla Burgi sharing about being a bucket filler.
Uploaded May 06, 2020
We each have an invisible bucket inside of us. When we are having hard emotions like feeling sad, our bucket feels low and when we feel happy, our bucket level feels high.
We have the power to help fill up other people’s buckets. We can do something kind, be helpful, say something nice; all these things make others happier.
The cool thing is when we fill up someone else’s bucket, it doesn’t take anything from ours but rather ours gets fuller too!
Scientists have researched this and we know it is true, our brain chemicals and physical health change when we are kind to others.
Challenge: Be a bucket filler this week! Think of something you can do for someone else, it can be small! Notice how the other person reacts but also notice how it impacts how you feel.

Trauma, Resilience and Connection
This 3 minute video for caregivers features White River School District Social Worker Carianne Sellers sharing about trauma, resilience, and connection.
Uploaded May 12, 2020
This pandemic has been a collective trauma for all of us; a trauma is a distressing and confusing event we don’t have control of. You may be concerned about your student’s stress and reactions.
Research on Adverse Childhood Experiences (or ACE’s) tells us the common thread of resilience is a loving and supportive caregiver.
Spending time with our students doing something they are interested in, validating their feelings, and encouraging them when they want to give up will all help.
We can all do hard things and we are not alone, take this time to strengthen relationships!
Challenge: Spend some intentional quality time with your student and reach out to someone you have been missing!
