Pneumonia

Have you ever gotten pneumonia? Do you know anyone who has?
In pneumonia, part of your lungs fill up with fluid.
But why does this happen and what does it look like?
Investigate pneumonia by searching the Internet, talking to your doctor, or
from books in the library.
How do you think pneumonia would affect your lungs?
What symptoms would you have?
What do the symptoms you see and feel on the outside tell you about what
is happening deep inside your body at the system and cellular level?
Prepare a presentation on pneumonia that describes the symptoms and
what is happening in your body.
Use drawings or multimedia to help people see a model of what happens.
