Think of a particular time in your childhood, e.g., age 4, age 5, age 10, age 11.

Use Urie Bronfenbrenner's bioecological approach to development (Chapter 1 in the Feldman text), to place yourself in a fairly complete developmental context. Write completely about the following five systems (label which level you are talking about when writing your essay):

Microsystem: Describe: Your family at that time Your school and teacher at that time Your peer group at that time Your surrounding community at that time	Mesosystem: Describe: How your parents interacted with your peers at that time How your parents interacted with your school and teacher at that time Whether your parents helped with schoolwork at that time How your community supported your school or activities (e.g., sports)	Exosystem: Describe: Your parents' jobs Vacations you took Whether there was a divorce in your family
Macrosystem: Describe: Your ethnic heritage Your religious affiliations Your social class (e.g., poor, working-class, middle-class, wealthy) What was going on in the world at that time (e.g., Vietnam war, who was president of the United States, destruction of the Berlin Wall, etc.)	Chronosystem: Describe: How a single historical event (such as the terrorist attacks of 2001) affected your development at that time (or if there was more than one single historical event write about each one), and/or How gradual historical changes going on at that time affected your development (e.g., the change in the number of women who worked outside the home; a change in the types of jobs available; a change from having no television to having television).

Second:

Using another developmental theory besides Bronfenbrenner's, explain how the theory applies to you at that time in your childhood.
