Do This:
Summarize two different diseases in notability. Write about a disease that is considered a communicable disease that could become a pandemic or large scale illness. Use your own words to summarize this article. PLEASE do not copy and paste.
A few of you will be asked to "peer teach" your disease to the class tomorrow. Please have pictures on your presentation. Make this a presentation as if you WILL be teaching it. You don't know who will be picked!
Some things to consider: How is it spread? What is the likelihood that it will occur? Has it occurred before? Do we have a vaccine? Can we keep it from spreading? Where are the "hot spots" or places where this illness have a high rate of infection? What is the likelihood that this WILL occur?
Your presentation should be five minutes in length.
