Apply for free book and teaching pack on supporting children through social shocks

In late 2022, the Voices in a Pandemic (VIP-CLEAR) team launched a free book and accompanying resources online called ‘Learning to Live with Fog Monsters,’ to help children process and talk about social shocks.

Now the team is offering to send out free books and teaching packs to schools!

To apply for these resources, please get in contact with Ruth Vargo from the VIP team.

The resources, including Teacher’s Notes and an Activity PowerPoint, help teachers use the associated book, ‘Learning to Live with Fog Monsters,’ to support children through scary threats that aren’t always immediately visible, like pandemics, war, and climate change. The book is a free learning resource that draws on research findings of the VIP-CLEAR project, which draws on children’s experiences of lockdown to aid recovery.
