About This Lesson
For many students in Ukraine, the classroom, whether virtual or in person, is a refuge from the challenges they face daily. As an educator, your role is not just to teach but to uplift, encourage, and empower students in difficult times.
Children who experience disruptions to their education due to war face greater risks of falling behind academically, socially, and emotionally. However, research from UNICEF and the Global Partnership for Education highlights that maintaining structured learning environments during crises improves long-term educational and emotional outcomes. Teachers serve as frontline supporters of both academic growth and psychosocial resilience, helping students develop coping mechanisms and a sense of routine amid uncertainty.
This guide is designed to offer comprehensive teaching strategies, classroom materials, and digital resources that educators in Ukraine can use, even with limited resources. Each section will provide detailed instructional methods, concrete examples, lesson plan frameworks, and sources for additional materials.
