Trying to organize a vocal pedagogy paper on vocal health...?

[Jeannine]

I'm writing a paper for my vocal pedagogy class on vocal health but I'm having a hard time organizing it. Vocal health is such a broad topic and this paper is only supposed to be 4-6 pages, which is relatively short...The best I've come up with so far is having one part about how to take care of yourself and your voice when you're sick and another part about how to avoid getting sick/practicing vocal hygiene, but other than that, I can't figure out where to start...what to include/exclude...I have a ton of books from the library about vocal health and they all seem to talk a lot about the common cold but, really, there are so many small aspects of it that it's intimidating to know where to begin. Are there any voice teachers/pedagogy teachers with any suggestions? There's just so much to write about and I'm overwhelmed...what would you want to see in a student's paper on vocal health?
