prenatal period?-SSPBC3

HW- Ask your parents about your infancy- What were you like as a baby? Write down some of their comments and be prepared to share!

Song of the DAY: Creed- With Arms Wide Open

1. Development- the physical, social and cognitive changes that we go through from womb to tomb 2. Prenatal Development- development that occurs from conception to birth3.

Do Now- Development Reflection Questions-answer on page 100

Fundamental Issues: Nature or Nurture? & Continuous or in

Stages?• Do the changes we go through happen because of our

genes or how we are raised?• Is IQ inherited or determined early environment?

• Is there a ‘criminal’ gene?

• Is sexual orientation a choice or genetically determined?

• Happen gradually over our lives or do they happen in different stages?

• stage theories: there are distinct phases to intellectual and personality development

• continuity: development is continuous

Developmental Psychology

The study of YOU from womb to tomb.

We are going to study how we change

physically, socially, cognitively and morally

over our lifetimes.

Stages we will look at:Prenatal DevelopmentInfancy/ChildhoodAdolescenceAdulthood

Prenatal DevelopmentPhysical Development• Prenatal Stage- conception-birth

• Conception—when a sperm penetrates the ovum

• Zygote—a fertilized egg- called a zygote until 2 weeks pregnant (“germinal period”)

• Embryonic period—weeks three through eight after conception, called an embryo, develop eyes, ears, nose, mouth, heart, liver, kidney

• Fetal period—two months after conception until birth, called a fetus; 6+ months pregnant-

organs are developed for the most part

• This is the period where we grow the most- newborn baby is 1 BILLION times bigger than it started

Prenatal Development Foldable

• Follow the directions to create your foldable! • Label the foldable with the following ages:

0 month (Day 1-4 weeks)1 month (4-8 weeks)2 month (8-12 weeks)3 months (12-16 weeks)4 months (16-20 weeks)5 months (20-24 weeks)6 months (24-28 weeks)7 months (28-32 weeks)8 months (32-36 weeks)9 months (36-40 weeks)

• Use the handout and the video to add details about the physical development that occurs at each stage of pregnancy!

• Make sure to include the size of the embryo/fetus at each stage!
