02. I will survive

In the event of a Natural Disaster, what will help you survive?

If you live somewhere that is at risk from a Natural Disaster such as a flood or an earthquake, it is a good idea to have an Emergency Survival Kit packed and ready to help you cope with anything that happens.

Activity: In groups you have to decide what are the most important things to have in your Emergency Survival Kit. However, you cannot cary everything, so you have to choose wisely....

  • You have to choose and justify the 9 items you will include in your kit from those available.

  • There is a weight limit, you can not carry everything.

  • There is a price limit, you can not afford everything.

Use the template to organise your survival plan. You must have:

  • the 9 items for your rucksack

  • one item for each hand

  • Headwear, footwear and clothing

  • Your country

    • Your location

    • Your method of transport.

When your plan is complete you will be given a disaster at random.

You then have to write a story explaining how you will use those items to help you survive that disaster for 72 hours.

Good luck!
