Tremor Troop: Earthquakes – A Teacher's Package for K-6. Revised Edition
This teacher’s package for grades K-6 provides ready-to-use, hands-on activities for students
and teachers on the science of earthquakes and earthquake safety. This edition contains
assessments throughout the units, matrices linking activities to the National Science Education
Standards, and a new glossary. Four of the five units are divided into levels by grades: Level 1,
for grades K-2; Level 2, for grades 3-4; and Level 3, for grades 5-6. The lessons introduce how
earthquakes are defined, why and where earthquakes occur, the physical results of earthquakes,
and how earthquakes are measured. The fifth and final unit addresses earthquake safety and
survival and includes activities for students in all grades K-6. At the end of each unit, ready-toreproduce
masters are provided for classroom use.
