Death Education
As We Learn to Fall portrays a young girl's struggle to learn about and accept the death of a young friend. Actual interviews are shown with parents, friends, patients, doctors, teachers and others who have had to deal with death and who offer invaluable insight and perception about their experiences. Especially poignant is the struggle of young Jeff, a cancer victim who died at age 11. $99 ($50 rental), 30 minutes.
" As fine a general introduction to death and dying for school children (grades
4-12) as one is likely to find anywhere. This award-winning program should become an essential
audiovisual in every school's death education curriculum."
--Dick Pacholski, "Death Studies: The Media Exhange"
"Let me just say that it was the BEST program I've ever seen on the subject
of death and dying for elementary school students."
