[CALIBK12] 7th grade Health Research Project

[ANNETTE SCHERR]

Hi everyone!  I am a teacher-still  librarian but I now know the  
role  of the LMT in perpetrating the cause of "Higher Level Critical  
Thinking Skills".  My problem is that I can't seem to design or find  
a project for a disease unit.  I would like to stay away from the  
traditional research paper on a disease and get a little more fun and  
creative(aka anti-plagiarism) idea.  Does anyone have any suggestion  
or links to a lesson plan.  My thesis:  why reinvent the wheel?  I so  
far have come up with the idea of a doctor keeping a chart history on  
a mystery disease which is not diagnosed until the end of the  
project.  Any other ideas would help.  Thanks.
