The death presents itself in the lives of all as part of a cycle that is inevitable, unfolding in a different way for each individual. The preparation of the health professional during the graduation period contributes to the orientation of the undergraduates in the situation of death and mourning, minimizing the feeling of frustration in the face of loss. For this, the teacher can rely on the help of active methodologies, which aims to transport the student to situations closer to those that will be experienced. The objective of this study is to report the experience of professors in the topic of death in Pediatrics, with students from the fifth semester of the Nursing course at a university center in Porto Alegre/RS. It was possible to identify the students' lack of preparation and fear to speak about death, exposing the necessity of a continuous work and designed to approach the situations of death and mourning, during the whole formation.
