Points to consider when responding to a death in the yeshivah family for yeshivah educators are presented in this pamphlet. Using a checklist approach, questions to ask and actions to take in the event of a death in the yeshivah are listed. These include the following: (1) going to the bereaved student's home the night before the funeral; (2) making sure proper arrangements have been made; (3) making sure someone has explained what is expected of the student at the funeral and shivah; (4) knowing the protocol for calling on the avel and reassuring the student that he/she need not worry about missed schoolwork; (5) ensuring that a friend of the student's will be with him or her; (6) leaving a telephone number and making available for the family certain books on death and mourning; (7) ensuring that arrangements have been made for the avel's classmates to attend the funeral; (8) preparing the class by discussing their feelings; (9) being aware that some friends of the avel may need counseling; (10) arranging for some formal group expression of condolence; (11) remembering that additional counseling may be needed after the shivah; and (12) considering a special learning project as a means of further involving students and identifying with the avel. Special points to consider when reacting to death in the family of an elementary school student are discussed. Four questions in a quick checklist and a note on the value of a competent counselor conclude the pamphlet. (ABL)
