Dealing with loss and grief: Kindergarten

More than 10,000 people have died in our country from COVID-19. That figure is still growing every day. So many families are faced with loss and grief. Maybe you have been affected in your personal circle? Maybe some of the kids in your class had to say goodbye to a family member? Maybe you have already received questions from children about death? Even without direct reason in the classroom, it is important to teach children to deal with loss and grief. This article from the Kleutergewijs blog was written by Katrien De Decker, teacher and grief and loss consultant in the Odisee teacher training program.
