Once you have the information, in assembly, select the best items and images to include in the catalog. Then answer the questions with short and attractive sentences.

   • Are you aware of the technological innovations that help improve your vision with lenses that darken in sunlight?
   • Did you know that orthopedic services to treat problems related to the musculoskeletal system are available in your community?
   • Did you know that there are permanent vaccination campaigns at the community's clinic?

Include a thank you note for those who helped you, as well as for the place you visited.

Sharing and Assessing What We Learned

3. In assembly, talk about the impact of the catalog.
4. Talk to your family about the usefulness of tools, machines, and instruments that facilitate and increase human capabilities in the health field.
5. Finally, write in your notebooks the assembly agreements reached by the community to learn more about the machines, tools, and instruments that you can get access to in the health field.
