Use the above site to pick a topic. Search additional sites for more information. You also may choose a different disease if one isn’t present on this site. A good way to look for more information is to do a google search for genetic diseases.

Project:

1) Write a paragraph summary of the disease in your own words.

2) In your paragraph include the symptoms, and mortality.

3) Make a poster of your disease.

4) Present your disease to the class.
