Talking to children about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine

It can be really difficult to find the right words to answer our children’s questions about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Fortunately, there are lots of really good resources available to support us all with these conversations. The BBC Newsround page is particularly good and I would recommend the following three articles which I have brought to the children’s attention during collective worship today:

War in Ukraine: what’s happening there?

Advice if you’re upset by the news

How to spot misleading stories online about Ukraine crisis

The Education Blog also gives some helpful advice about avoiding misinformation.
