My Loved One

Worksheet Description

The worksheet titled “My Loved One” is a therapeutic tool aimed at helping students articulate their feelings about a loved one who has passed away. Designed with a clear and compassionate format, it provides a structured way for students to reflect on their loss. The worksheet then prompts the student to fill in the name of the deceased, their relationship to the student, the cause of death, and what they miss the most about their loved one.

Below these initial prompts, a large, bordered box invites the student to draw or describe a memory, a trait, or an object that represents their loved one. This visual element is a crucial part of the healing process, as it allows for a creative expression of grief. The act of drawing or describing serves as a bridge to access and process complex emotions, making the intangible loss more concrete and manageable. This worksheet is not only a guide for self-expression but also serves as a potential starting point for discussions with teachers, counselors, or peers, facilitating support and understanding in a school setting.
