Check understanding

  • Name and order at least six life stages from birth to old age
  • Describe key physical changes during puberty (growth spurts, body shape changes, development of adult features)
  • Explain that puberty is triggered by hormones — chemical messengers released by glands
“Can your child describe how a person’s body changes as they grow from a baby to an adult to an elderly person — and explain what happens during puberty?”
