Answer:

In an area that is prone to earthquakes, we could store household items in a way that will minimize chances of injury and make sure that the bigger items or furniture such as shelves are fastened to walls. We can also try not to sleep under a window, and should always have an emergency kit assembled. You can also have plans with your family as to where to go if caught in an Earthquake.( also might want to change the wording because this was my answer. Just change they wording into your own to show that you understand it and am not just copying me! :) )

Hope this helps!

You can have plans on where to go if found in the midst of an Earthquake. Talk to local teachers, adults and family members to know what to do when caught in an Earthquake.
