FLOOD RESPONSE
Imagine that you lived in an area prone to river flooding. You have
a dream house, in a great location, and so you don’t want to move. How would you prepare for a flood, what would you do in the event of a flood, and what would
you do in the aftermath of the flood.
Your dream home
PREPARATION How would you prepare for flooding?
Produce a plan. Think about: What would you buy? What would you keep safe in your
house? What would you change about your
house?
The flood
RESPONSE Your house has flooded. What now? What would you do to the house to
ensure minimal damage? How would you travel around? What would you eat and drink? What would you use for lighting or
heating?
AFTERMATH The floodwaters have gone. What now? How would you get your house back to
normal? Would you make any alterations to your
house to help in the event of another flood?
