my suggestions would be to do some online research. i did a google on "teaching about asthma" and several dozen excellent sources came up.

remember if this is for school you cannot take it directly and claim it as your own. but take the information, put it in your own words and give the source credit in your bibliography.

As an asthmatic with asthmatic siblings, I found the Allergy & Asthma Network/Mothers of Asthmatics site to have wonderful resources written for the lay person. They often will send out copies of their materials for free for patient education purposes. (I worked as a secretary in a low income medical clinic and they sent a whole box of materials and books in English and Spanish for children, parents and other adults for the nurse educator to use at a clinic health fair)
