September 11

The MindOH! Foundation would like to offer you the following worksheets, which were developed by mental health and education professionals with appropriate expertise. Although these worksheets were first developed after the September 11th terrorist attacks, they continue to be relevant today because strong feelings may continue to resurface, creating a teachable moment when a youngster can be guided through a process that helps him or her think things through.
