I was looking for some interesting material to talk about diseases in classes. But at the time we need to use some specific vocabulary, teachers (and I´m included for sure), tend to present in a inconsistent way ... So I thought about some kind of clues to challenge "Intermediate Students" to guess about this theme and comprehend some new expressions.
Hope it´d be useful!
