CREATE A STORY
This is a fun—and challenging—way to reinforce the meaning of medical words and the word elements is to create a story using the words and word elements from chapter 13-15 and 20. The medical words and word elements are to be substituted for words in a appropriate story that you make. Submit your story in the text box below. I will not open file attachments. Once posted you will be able to see others stories and will be able to read and comment/ like others if you choose.
Original post must have:
-continuity
-a title (5pts)
-use a minimum of 10 different word elements. If terms are repeated in the story, they only count once towards the ten (10) total. (10 pts each).
-ONLY terms on the list below count towards the ten (10) total. Terms in the example are NOT included.
Here is an example story:
