Assignment #17

Antique Medicine Shelves from Brandon Cirillo’s photostream on Flickr – Photo Sharing!

Read each of the following:

Ancient Medicine – History for Kids!

North American Science after 1500 AD – History for Kids!

Think about what would happen if you or someone you know was sick and not getting better (say you are sick for a week). What would you or your parents do? Where would you go?  What do you think would happen in the past?

Write two sentences. One sentence should be about medicine today (where do people go when they are sick, especially when they are really sick and not getting better). The other sentence should share something you learned about medicine in the past.

    My aunt was sick of cancer she didn’t get better. Her body is so bad she died. If I was sick for a week I would tell my parents to take to the hospital.

    If my sister got sick for a long time she would just go to the doctor and get some medication for the sickness. If some one was sick in the olden days I think they would have tried to get some medication for there sickness.
