'''Lesson Title'''

"Cancer: Causes and Prevention"

'''Lesson Overview'''

This lesson will give students a basic introduction to cancer. It will also allow students to investigate a few of the causes and ways to prevent certain cancers. Sometimes the introduction of the topic causes a lot of worry and concern - due to the fact that so many students will know someone that currently has cancer or has died of cancer.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'''Goals and Objectives'''

1. Give students a basic introduction to the hallmarks of cancer.
2. Provide an opporunity for students to investigate some of the causes and ways to prevent certain cancers.
3. Create a forum in which students can share information and stories in a seminar format.

'''Common Misconceptions'''

I have had students in the past explain on tests that you "catch" cancer.....I'm not sure if they think that you can catch it like a cold - or that they are still unsure of what cancer actually is.
