Childhood - Adolescent Development Project

This project is to show your development from infancy through late adolescence. You will need the following materials for this project:

Poster Board

1. Pictures
2. Markers, colored pencils, etc.

You will use your pictures and for a growth timeline. You should cover the stages we discussed with Jean Piaget (all four stages), Erik Erikson (the first five stages), and Kohlberg (the first 3-4 stages). You have notes on these stages and they are in your textbook. You will need to have a picture for each stage and an accompanying paragraph for each theorist. In each paragraph, you will discuss the changes that Piaget, Erikson and Kohlberg talked about and provide examples of you engaging in that behavior/stage. For example, when you learned to walk, talk, or maybe learned how to ride a bike. You should include physical and personality changes in your paragraph and pictures (Paragraphs may be handwritten neatly or they may be typed) You should also include information on any accomplishments or achievements that happened or any events that helped to shape this stage. For the early stages, you will probably need your family member's help.

This project is about you. Be creative in your presentation. You should cover up to Erikson's fifth stage, Kohlberg's fourth stage, and all four of Piaget's stages.

You will be given very little class time to complete this project. You will present your project in class on the assigned due date..
