Let's face it, Med Term is probably the most boring medical course to teach. That's why I spent 3 yrs and thousands of hours developing this all inclusive program. Complete classroom instructions are included, with 'how to' guidelines for teachers. The bundle includes every printable WordSearch, every PowerPoint, every printable Bingo game set and each chapter exam(s) (matching). Your students will love you for making Med Term fun and they will email you years later to tell you how helpful you
Teachers who purchase my $100 Complete and Easy Medical Terminology bundle often ask what they can do to fill a 2-semester/full year course in Medical Terminology. Here is the answer! This package contains research topics and classroom activities for each of the 12 organ system chapters: Integumentary System Skeletal System Muscular System Digestive System Cardiovascular System Lymphatic/Immune System Respiratory System Urinary System Endocrine System Nervous System Sensory System Reproductive
I created a teaching style called “associative learning.” I use it in every subject, but it works especially well with Medical Terminology. It’s easy for the teacher….simply read the slide and NOTHING else! The images and the word associations create a neural association in the brain the students learn the words without even trying. It’s fun and it’s effective.
Let me introduce you to the first PowerPoint in "The Medical Professions Series." With over 30 full-color slides (and 3 embedded links to YouTube videos), this presentation shows two versions of the Oath, interprets the original Oath line by line, provides suggestions and cues for partner/small group sharing, and asks open ended questions leading to class discussion. It can be a stand-alone (long) lesson or a wonderful foundation for an entire chapter on Medical Ethics.

What I call "associative teaching." Everything is linked to a visual or auditory association. It's fun, it's not boring....and it WORKS!
