Feel Your Feelings

Worksheet Description

The Grief Worksheet is an empathetic educational tool designed to assist students in articulating their feelings during times of loss. It’s a simple yet poignant template that encourages self-expression through writing. The worksheet is segmented into parts, each beginning with “Why” or “I wish,” prompting the child to explore their emotions about the loss they have experienced. It’s a helpful resource for counselors, teachers, or parents to use with children who are learning to understand and express their grief.

Accompanied by illustrations of a character in varying emotional states, the worksheet visually represents the range of feelings a child may experience while grieving. These images serve to validate the child’s emotions, demonstrating that it is normal to feel and express sadness in different ways. By providing specific prompts for reflection, the worksheet invites the student to acknowledge their pain, ask questions, and express desires that are left in the wake of losing someone important to them. This process of reflection and articulation can be a crucial step in a child’s journey towards healing.
