What did people think caused disease Discuss & write down a sentence to explain all images.

LO: How did scientists discover that germs cause disease. All will be able to…identify what people thought caused disease prior to Pasteur. Most will be able to…describe the work of Louis Pasteur and germ theory. (D) Some will be able to…explain factors that were important in the discovery of germ theory. (A)

Spontaneous Generation… Spontaneous Generation - Disease was caused by germs that were produced by flesh and vegetables as they rotted. People believed that germs were the result of disease, not the cause of it! Miasma – Disease was caused by bad air that was filled with poisonous fumes from rotting matter.

He called them animalcules and published his findings. What were these animalcules…? Draw a small image of the microscope and explain it…

Louis Pasteur WHO WAS HE? Born in France He studied chemistry and biology, taking charge of science at Lille University in It was his reputation as a top chemist that first led one of Lille’s top wine producers to go to Pasteur for help… WHAT DID HE DO? You each have a part of the story of Louis Pasteur… You have 12 minutes to piece together the story of Pasteur and complete your storyboard. You must educate rather than copy …
