A Drop for Your Bucket

      Recently, I received a "drop for my bucket" from a colleague.  Like me, he serves MSTA as a field service coordinator and hears many teacher stories.  A school in his area uses drops to foster positive relationships among staff members.  Of course, receiving a drop prompted me to read more about the idea's origins:  "How Full is Your Bucket?  Positive Strategies for Work and Life."  It reminds me of the random acts of kindness craze several years ago, so I am sure this will catch fire and then burn out.  But I am all for the ride!  If folks can be more than civil to one another, even for a short period of time. . . more power to the people!

Call me a curmudgeon, but I'd rather get chocolate!

I was introduced to this book at one of our STARR regroup meetings. The book is AMAZING! I plan on using it when I return to the classroom next year as part of my positive parent/student interactions plan. Not only will I email parents electronic drops, I plan on using the printable ones to present to students and co-workers. Everyone wants to know they've done something right!
