Piggy is made fun of several times because he is
overweight. He himself seems to be much more concerned about his asthma. You
will research these two conditions and make a power point slide presentation
for the class.
For each illness you must have:
1. One slide about the condition containing information about the false
impressions people have about the illness.. Use graphics or decoration to
make the slide interesting.
2. One slide with facts about the condition. Possible causes, cures or
treatment for the illness.
3. One slide with organizations that help people with the condition, how to
contact the organization and what services they offer.
4. Relate your findings to Lord of the Flies.
