Description
Book SynopsisLoss and trauma impacts families, communities and children and young people. This includes collective trauma experienced within situations such as a global pandemic, economic poverty, displacement, war, natural hazards or political turmoil. As a result, various common characteristics may be exhibited by children in school settings.
This practical book provides strategies and interventions to support the effects of loss and trauma in children and young people. It offers easy-to-understand research and theory to develop knowledge and skills, alongside hands-on strategies to support emotional responses, with practical examples of what to do if. Chapters consider why and how these emotions occur, recognising each child''s life experiences, and focus on identifying suitable approaches. The intention is to validate feelings and help each child find a way to navigate the variety of emotions experienced, using the simple 5S-Scaffold model: SUBSIDESOOTHESUPPORTSTRENGTHENSELF-CARE.
