Grief in the Classroom

A Teacher's Resource

 

Lumara’s Grief in the Classroom is an essential resource designed to assist anyone supporting grieving children & youth in recognizing and addressing grief within educational settings.

Lumara’s learning guides, activity sheets, and book reviews, that follow, have been carefully crafted by our team of professionals, who recognize the prevalence of grief in classrooms and the essential need to support children and youth through their grieving process. Whether arising from everyday transitions or unexpected events, loss and grief are inherent in school environments. Understanding grief as a natural response to loss is crucial for nurturing children’s mental well-being and growth. With teachers and classrooms playing pivotal roles in children’s lives, cultivating a compassionate school community where grief is openly addressed fosters healthy grieving experiences and positive outcomes. We acknowledge the challenges teachers may encounter when addressing these topics, and our aim is to empower them with resources and guidance to facilitate meaningful conversations about loss, grief, and the emotions that follow. Through these important discussions, teachers help cultivate resilience and emotional intelligence in their classrooms.
