“Adolescents”……
•…….a stage of development between childhood and adulthood.
Puberty
Puberty signals the beginning of
Adolescence.
“Puberty”……
•….is the part of adolescence when the reproductive system becomes mature.
• It is unpredictable as to EXACTLY when it will occur…..BUT,• Puberty will eventually happen.
Puberty…..
A HORMONE is …
• ..a chemical made in one part of the body > >>>• carried in the bloodstream>>>>• causing a change in another part of the body.
• HORMONES that cause sexual maturity are called sex hormones ex: testosterone (male), progesterone (female)
Pituitary Gland = stimulates the ovaries and testes to release hormones.
Awkwardness /Growth Spurts
• Teens may be more clumsy because of growth spurts.
• During puberty:– body parts don't all grow at the same rate– leads to clumsiness as the teen tries to cope with limbs
that seem to have grown overnight– Teens can appear uncoordinated.
Physical Growth and Development
The Teenage Brain explained ( Physical Growth)

Changes for both sexes…..
better dexterity
Brain size
change in body/face shape
Hair texture changes
maturity Body odor
permanent teeth Hand size
Foot size
Secondary Sexual Characteristics for both
gendersUnderarm hair
More body hair/texture
Change in skin texture … ZITS & Oily hair !
Body Odor – need to wear deodorant
Boys… 12 to 16 years oldweight gain and an increase in muscular
development – replaces fat tissue
changes in body proportions— shoulders broaden
Growth spurt of approx. 12 -13 inches
Voice deepens
Nocturnal emissions (wet dream)
indicates a presence of sperm.
Changes for GIRLS:
• Body becomes curvier – gaining weight:– hips– buttocks– thighs
Don’t assume you are getting fat – you’re NOT! It is NORMAL to have this increase of weight at this age.
Girls… (10 to 14 years old)
• onset of menstruation at age 12-13 on average
• a growth spurt of approximately 8 to 10 inches
• weight gain and an increase in muscular development
• Increase in vaginal discharge
Menstrual cycle• Releases an egg (ovum) from the ovary (girls have two of
them)… OVULATION
• It travels down a fallopian tube (girls have two of them too)…
• This is where fertilization takes place.
• To the uterus. • the lining of the uterus thickens and fills with extra blood
and tissue to prepare for possible fertilization by sperm. (Progesterone)
• IF the egg is not fertilized, the blood-filled tissue comes
apart and passes out of her body through the vagina = menstruation

Intellectual• Thinking & Problem Solving Skills Develop
Increase in…. …math
Thinking moves from concrete to abstract.
Trial & Error >>>More Self Reflective>>>>View Problems with more perspective.
….vocabulary. ….reading
. ….& writing ability.
…AND the ability to
THINK about the future!
INTELLECTUAL
teens are beginning to think abstractly: they can’t always predict the long-term
consequences. (what are the risks?)
Increase interest & short term enthusiasm for new ideas & projects.
• IQ is ones ABILITY to REASON, SOLVE, and ADAPT
• I.Q. is NOT a test of KNOWLEDGE
• Average IQ is exactly an IQ of 100
• You are born with your I.Q. and can't raise it more than 5 points (various tests and having a good or bad day may vary the score, but Actual I.Q. remains constant).

Intellectual
• The Growth of Knowledge
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nz2dtv--ok
Intellectual• Recent research suggests:
** teens' brains are not completely developed until late in adolescence.
**connections between neurons affecting emotional, physical and mental abilities are incomplete.
**could explain why some teens seem to be inconsistent in controlling their emotions, impulses, and judgments.
Intellectual
• Cognitive Development:• What Is It?
ONE:• Developing advanced reasoning skills– Multiple choices– Asking the “what if” of a situation
Intellectual• Cognitive Development:• What Is It?
TWO:• Developing abstract thinking skills.– Things that cannot be seen, heard or touched (faith,
trust, beliefs, etc)
Intellectual• Cognitive Development:• What Is It?
• Developing “meta-cognition” = allows us to think about how others feel and what they might be thinking.– How we are perceived by others– Develop learning strategies: using music/rhythm,
mnemonic devices “every good boy does fine” (notes of music)
• How Do These Changes Affect Teens?
• Increased level of self-consciousness
• Believe that they are being “watched” by others
• Quick to point our inconsistencies in adults = Justice Orientation.
• Believe that no one has ever experienced their feelings– “my life is ruined” -“You’ll never understand”
• “It can’t happen to me” syndrome = Personal Fable• Causes teens to take unnecessary risks

PHILOSOPHICAL
Deciding what is right and wrong and why.
Asking and thinking about life questions, Meaning of life, A basic outlook on life.
Someone who is becoming philosophically mature has asked themselves these kind of questions……
Questions asked by teens during philosophical growth:
Who am I? Why was I born? What’s life about? What will my future be like? What do I want to do as a career? How do I understand my purpose in
life? What will I contribute to this world? What are my obligations to humanity?Do 2 years olds ask themselves these questions? Why or why not
The Tasks of adolescents..
establish a stable identity

8 Developmental Tasks for Adolescents
adolescence is marked by a multitude of changes— biological, physical, intellectual, and emotional.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcQg1EshfIE
There are eight main developmental tasks that adolescents must complete in order to establish an identity.
1. Achieving new and more mature age group.
Adolescents learn through interacting with others in more adult ways.
Physical maturity plays an important role in peer relations. Adolescents who mature at a slower or faster rate than others
will be dropped from one peer group and generally will enter a peer group of similar maturity.
For early maturing girls (girls whose bodies are fully developed at a young age),entering into a peer group of similar physical maturity can mean a greater likelihood of early sexual activity.
parents need to place limits on adolescents’ outside activities.
2. Achieving a masculine or femininesocial role.
Each adolescent develops his or her own definition of what it means to be male or female.
Most adolescents conform to the sex roles of our cultural view of male (assertive) and female (passive) characteristics. Yet these roles have become more relaxed in the last 30 years.
develop their masculine and feminine social roles.
3. Accepting one’s physique.
The time of the onset of puberty and the rate of body changes for adolescents vary greatly. How easily adolescents deal with these changes will partly depend on how closely their bodies match the well-defined stereotypes of the “perfect” body for young women and young men.
4. Achieving emotional independencefrom parents and other adults.
Children derive strength from internalizing their parents’ values and attitudes. Adolescents, however, must redefine their sources of personal strength and move toward self-reliance.
This change is smoother if adolescents and parents can agree on some level of independence that increases over time. For example, parents and adolescents should set a curfew time. That curfew should be extended as the adolescent matures.
5. Preparing for marriage and familylife.
Sexual maturation is the basis for this developmental task.
Achievement of this developmental task is difficult because adolescents often confuse sexual feelings with genuine intimacy.
Indeed, this developmental task is usually not achieved until late adolescence or young adulthood.
6. Preparing for an economic career.
In American society, adolescents reach adult status when they are able to financially support themselves.
This task has become more difficult now than in the past because the job market demands increased education and skills.
Today, this developmental task is generally not achieved until late adolescence or young adulthood, after the individual completes his/her education and gains some entry-level work experience.
7. Acquiring a set of values.
Adolescents gain the ability to think abstractly and to visualize possible situations.
With these changes in thinking, the adolescent is able to develop his or her own set of values and beliefs.
Discussing these newly forming ethical systems with parents and other adults can be a great help to adolescents in accomplishing this
developmental task. In addition, parents may want to provide adolescents with
hypothetical situations that challenge their emerging values, to help the adolescents evaluate the strength and appropriateness of those values.
8. Desiring and achieving sociallyresponsible behavior.
The family is where children learn to define themselves and their world.
Adolescents must learn to define themselves and their world in the context of their new social roles.
Status within the community beyond that of family is an important achievement for older adolescents and young adults.
Adolescents and young adults become members of the larger community through financial and emotional independence from parents, which in turn teaches them the value of socially responsible behavior.
