    Reproduction & Sexuality Study Notes

    • Learner Objectives: To learn about primary and secondary sex characteristics, puberty changes, and life stages. Learning about physical, mental, and social changes during development.
    • Life Stages: The text outlines various life stages, from baby to senior citizen, emphasizing the distinct characteristics of each phase, such as growth spurts, learning how to talk and walk (toddlers), playing games (pre-schoolers), and learning basic academic skills and interacting with peers in age-appropriate ways (schoolchildren). Adolescence includes important physical and emotional changes. Adulthood is marked by independence, work, and family.
    • Puberty: Puberty is an important aspect of adolescence. Adolescents can undergo significant changes in characteristics, physical development, mental or emotional development, and social development. Physical changes include the rapid development of breasts and other bodily features, changing hormone levels. Social changes during adolescence involve interactions with friends and family.
