1. Prepare flash cards listing various diseases and disorders so that each category has approximately 5-6 diseases or disorders. Divide the class into small groups and randomly distribute the flash cards, instructing each group to determine which category each belongs. Draw 7 columns on the board and ask for a volunteer from each group to place their terms in the correct category. Allow the students to use a dictionary to verify their answers.MaterialsApproximately 35-42 flash cards with various diseases and disorders listed separately; Stedman’s Medical Dictionary for the Health Professions and Nursing, Illustrated, 6th ed.
