Infectious and Noninfectious Diseases - ActivInspire Flipchart

This Promethean ActivInspire Flipchart presentation explores infectious and noninfectious diseases.

• This presentation focuses on common diseases that impact humans. It starts by introducing diseases and then comparing and contrasting the causes of infectious and noninfectious diseases. Next, the presentation outlines the cause and symptoms of 8 common infectious diseases (cold, influenza, Athlete's Foot, AIDS, strep throat, pneumonia, tetanus, and malaria). Last, the presentation outlines the cause and symptoms of 8 common noninfectious diseases (Diabetes, allergies, Parkinson's, skin cancer, asthma, arthritis, MS, and heart diseases).

• There are a total of 133-slides. Slides contain information for guided notes with images, links to relevant BrainPOP videos, actual videos, and several review questions throughout for checking understanding.

• I think this is best taught over the course of two or more days.

• There's also a guided notes sheet available that accompanies this slideshow in my store.

• This was designed for 7th grade, but I think it can appropriately be used in 4th through 10th depending on your standards.

• Please note: This is NOT a PowerPoint, but if you prefer, I also have this in PowerPoint version in my store. You can also download a free, 30-day trial for ActivInspire if you're interested.

I hope you find this helpful, and that it saves you time as you prepare to teach these concepts.
