Getting Yourself Together When Your Family Comes Apart: Coping with Family Changes

Family changes often present difficult challenges for children. Separation, divorce, incarceration, death, re-marriage, relocation through moving or military deployment are just a few of the life events that change families and often create puzzling feelings for the children involved. This book focuses on the five familiar stages of grief often experienced by children when their family structure changes. You'll find a student survey, a read-aloud story, and 21 reproducible student activities designed to help children move through the grief process and adjust to their new circumstances. Grades 2-5.
