European Centre for Modern Languages of the Council of Europe Supporting the Linguistic Integration of Refugees from Ukraine Resources

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Council of Europe has developed a set of tools to support member states in their efforts to respond to the challenges faced by those who are providing language support to children arriving from Ukraine as the children adjust to their new environment and their new schools. Some of these tools have been written recently with this purpose in mind. Others are adapted from the Toolkit for adults which was developed as part of the Council of Europe's Linguistic Integration of Adult Migrants (LIAM) project, This is available on this website.

These tools have been created and selected as being especially useful in the early stages of language support with newly arriving refugee children. They are designed to assist organisations, teachers and volunteers who are providing language support for refugee children arriving from Ukraine with no knowledge, or very little knowledge, of the language of the new country. These nine tools have now also been translated into the languages of the neighbouring countries receiving the largest numbers of fugitives from the war in Ukraine: Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Slovak/Czech.

UNICEF Ireland 'Children Uprooted' Teaching Activity

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The aim of this activity is to encourage participants to reflect on what home means to them and what people leave behind when fleeing.
What is lost when you decide to leave your home? Ask participants to Discussion: think about their home here in Ireland. What would they be leaving behind and what would they miss most if they were forced to leave. Suggestions, culture, language, family, friends, neighbours, security, feeling they belong to a place, food, smells, landscape, weather, control of your life or your future.

Activity: Pack Your Bags - Divide the class into family groups​. Tell groups they will be deciding what they would pack for their journey.

Hand out 5 index cards per person, ask students to write one item on each card based on what that person in the family wants to bring on the journey. They can discuss as a group, so as not to duplicate items.

Items to think of include:

What will you bring from home that is important to you? - People, pets, toys, food, photos, jewellery.

What items will you need to bring on your journey? - Clothes, hygiene, medicine, survival equipment, phone, charger, coats, blankets, food, money, passport, water, documents, knife, matches, hat, nappies, medicines, sanitary items, soap, toothpaste, toys, cooking equipment, lighter, flashlight etc?

Think again of anything cultural or age-specific - Koran, prayer mat, bible

Ask groups to collect all the items together and to think about the journey. How long will it take? Ask them to remove from their stack of cards anything they couldn't carry on their back for long distances. Ask students to remove from their pack, two items that might be stolen or lost along the way. Ask students to remove 3 items they think they will run out of on the long journey. Ask students in the group to place the cards in order of importance to the group and discard the bottom three items.

Video: "Escape from Syria: Rania's odyssey"

Discussion: What did Rania bring with her on the journey? Two pairs of pants, a towel, a book, a video, a phone, 2 jumpers, jackets, Game of Thrones DVDs, nail clippers, notebooks, pens, coffee cup, toothbrush and toothpaste, pain killers, photographs of her family, her high school qualification, passport and a backpack. How different is it to what you packed. Why were the DVDs important to Rania?

UNICEF 'How to Talk to Your Children about Conflict and War' article

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
1. Find out what they know and how they feel

Choose a time and place when you can bring it up naturally and your child is more likely to feel comfortable talking freely, such as during a family meal. Try to avoid talking about the topic just before bedtime.

A good starting point is to ask your child what they know and how they are feeling. Some children might know little about what is happening and not be interested in talking about it, but others might be worrying in silence. With younger children, drawing, stories and other activities may help to open up a discussion.

Kids can discover the news in many ways, so it's important to check in on what they're seeing and hearing. It's an opportunity to reassure them and potentially correct any inaccurate information they might have come across whether online, on TV, at school or from friends.

A constant stream of upsetting images and headlines can make it feel like the crisis is all around us. Younger children may not distinguish between images on screen and their own personal reality and may believe they're in immediate danger, even if the conflict is happening far away. Older children might have seen worrying things on social media and be scared about how events might escalate.

It's important not to minimize or dismiss their concerns. If they ask a question that might seem extreme to you, such as "Are we all going to die?", reassure them that is not going to happen, but also try to find out what they have heard and why they are worried about that happening. If you can understand where the worry is coming from, you are more likely to be able to reassure them.

Be sure to acknowledge their feelings and assure them that whatever they are feeling is natural. Show that you're listening by giving them your full attention and remind them that they can talk to you or another trusted adult whenever they like.

New Starter Dual Language Ukrainian Dual Language Resources

What Ukrainian Dual Language Resources are available?

If you're looking for some handy resources that you can use to support your new Ukrainian children's learning, without language as a barrier, take a look at some of the lovely Ukrainian Dual Language Resources that we have on offer.

We have a variety of handy worksheets, activities and more, which you can use to support your children's transition to learning in a different language to Ukrainian. We've included dual language teaching resources that pair Ukrainian with Czech, English, German, Hungarian, Polish and Romanian, so you can find the language pairing that's suitable for you and your children.

You could start by using a resource that introduces your children to a second language, such as the EAL Teaching Basic English PowerPoint. This is a great way to get your children engaged and excited about learning a new language.

Then, it's time to start expanding your young learners' vocabulary. Fun activities like the My Family Word Mat or the Clothes Labelling Worksheet help your children to get to grips with new words by showing them visually.

You might like to try an activity that aims to support your children as they go through a challenging experience, while also working on their language learning. The What Am I Able to Control? Worksheet is an effective tool for doing this.

How can these resources benefit my children?

For children who have recently arrived in a new country with a different language, it's especially important that they feel comfortable and supported in their learning. These Ukrainian Dual Language Resources aim to provide this support with language learning, as well as other aspects of their education.

You can use these dual language resources to develop your children's:

Communication skills

Ability in a second language

Engagement in a new learning environment

Adaptability to new situations

Like all of our resources, these Ukrainian Dual Language Resources are made by our expert team and approved by teachers, so you can rely on their high quality and you know that they meet curriculum standards.

Tips for supporting young EAL learners

Here are some handy tips for supporting your children's learning while they're getting to grips with a new language:

Encourage visual learning to minimise difficulties with language.

Allow them to work in their first language to feel comfortable.

Promote group work without forcing your children to speak.

Learn their name and culture to help you understand them better.

Adapt your teaching wherever you need to, to best support their learning.

Please note our Helpline is very busy due to the ongoing crisis in Ukraine as well as the number of State immigration schemes running right now, so it can take a few attempts to get through. We're sorry for any inconvenience but please keep trying if you would like to speak to a member of our team. Unfortunately we do NOT offer drop-in appointments at this time.

For people in Ireland wanting to help

The Ukrainian crisis is prompting an inspiring display of solidarity and charity both here in Ireland and across the globe. We have received many questions from the public on how Irish citizens can help with the crisis, whether it's through sponsoring refugees or donating supplies and aid.

Offers of accommodation

If you would like to offer support in the form of accommodation, please visit the Irish Red Cross website and go to their Register of Pledges to fill in some details about your property or space: https://registerofpledges.redcross.ie

Offers of skills and other forms of assistance

If you have skills to offer to assist Ukrainians coming to Ireland, you can register to pledge your services on the Irish Red Cross website here (scroll to bottom of page): https://registerofpledges.redcross.ie/#/

GoingFar is running a mentoring programme to support Ukrainian refugees to find employment in Ireland. You can sign up to be a mentor on their website: http://goingfar.co

Community sponsorship

The Open Community is a programme that gives people across Ireland the opportunity to come together as community sponsorship groups and welcome resettled refugees to their local communities. Learn more about hosting refugees.

Donating goods and supplies for in Ukraine and surrounding countries

Please contact 0879234421 or 0872510015 if you would like to know where to bring humanitarian aid.

If someone would like to donate medical supplies for Ukrainians, please write to the reserve email of the Embassy of Ukraine to Ireland (emb.ua.ireland@gmail.com) or call 016685189 to get the latest list of necessary items and the collection location.

Agencies on the ground in Ukraine are asking for donations rather than donation of goods, as it is easier to obtain supplies locally rather than shipping these from Ireland.

Right now, there is no single agency or network coordinating all relief efforts or organising options for supporting and relocating refugees. Here are some ways you can help.

Donate to relief organisations supporting Ukrainian refugees

Donate to the Red Cross Ukraine crisis appeal

Red Cross teams are on the ground now in Ukraine and will continue their work to repair vital infrastructure, support health facilities, and help families with life-saving food and hygiene items.

Donate to the Red Cross (Ireland)
Donate to the Red Cross (Ukraine)

Donate to Polish Humanitarian Action

This Poland-based organisation is providing humanitarian assistance including food and other forms of support to people who have had to leave their homes. They are asking for donations to help people affected by conflict, including internally displaced persons and refugees coming to Poland.

Donate to Polish Humanitarian Action

Donate to Together-Razem Centre

This Irish-based charity provides support to Polish and Eastern European migrant communities in Ireland and is currently raising funds to support Ukraine and the Ukrainian people.

Donate to Together-Razem

The Immigrant Council is also accepting donations to support our free services supporting Ukrainians in Ireland to apply for family reunification for loved ones impacted by the crisis. Consider making a donation today.
