Hold on to the desk or table so it doesn’t move away from you.TranscriptTeacher: What should we do if we’re outside when an earthquake happens Ms Fors: Go to an open space away from buildings, trees, or power lines.Student 2: And what about after an earthquake Mrs Fors: Well, if you’re trapped, you can use a cell phone to call or text for help.
