  • Masters of Disaster
    Find a K-8 curriculum, aligned to national education standards supplements lessons teachers are already
    teaching and provides students with information to help them prepare for disasters and stay safe during and after a disaster in their home, school, or community.

  • Facing Fear
    This was developed to
    help children express their feelings and cope in uncertain times.  It is specifically tailored for lower elementary (K-2), upper elementary (3-5), middle school (6-8) and high school (9-12) classes.  There are twelve lesson plans for each of four age groups. The plans are arranged in three chapters: Feelings, Facts and Perspectives, and Future. The student and family oriented activities engage students in learning and offer families comfort, knowledge and disaster preparedness skills.

  • In the Aftermath
    This series now also helps students understand and cope with the effects of disasters to help them recover.  As above, the K-12 curriculum has these chapters for each of four grade levels: Life, Loss and Grief; Take Care of Yourself; Reach Out to Others; and Build Back Better.
