Resources about the War in Ukraine
I am sure many of our students have questions about the invasion of Ukraine. Below are resources for parents and teachers about the current war. If you have additional ones to share with colleagues, please send them our way.
For PARENTS. Your children may have asked questions about the current conflict in Ukraine. I know as a parent, I sometimes leave the news on in the evening while working on my laptop or doing other things, without realizing my ten-year-old is walking around observing the television without any context. That’s why I have found the National Child Traumatic Stress Network’s “Talking to Children about War” document an excellent resource, especially when I want to talk with my teens about what they are hearing about this conflict.
Here are three additional resources for this topic:
- ABC News - Honesty when talking with children about Ukraine
- Newswise - Talking with children about traumatic events
- Childmind Blog - How to talk with kids about Ukraine
- NYT Learning Network. Always a great repository for teachers.
- PBS Learning Media. Another great website. Here you will find clips from PBS NewsHour and Frontline!
- Newslea. A fantastic website we have a subscription to that allows you to differentiate resources by reading ability.
