1.Study the data table on the Human Life Cycle
Stages. (pp. 146-147, LM)
2.Read the characteristics of each stage.
3.Using colored magazines, cut pictures that match
the characteristics of each stage. (If in case
magazines are not available, the group may draw.)
4.Paste the pictures/drawings beside the
appropriate development.
The Human Life Cycle Stages
Birth
The start of the human life cycle begins after the
baby is delivered out by its mother to the world.
Infancy
Is categorized as lasting from birth through the
first year of life. The infant is completely
dependent upon its parents or caretakers for
survival.
Childhood
Takes place between ages 1 to 10. The first 2 years, the child
is called a toddler. During this time , the child learns how to
walk, talk and be more self-sufficient. The child is susceptible
during the time to learn habits and behaviors.
Adolescence
Takes place between ages 12 to 18 and is a critical turning
point because it is when puberty takes place.
Boys’ voice change and girls get their menstruation. As such,
they begin to separate more from the parents and became
more independent.
Adulthood
Lasts from age 18 throughout old age. Adulthood is
when human beings are fully grown and must
provide entirely for themselves. This is also a
significant time that adults can give birth.
“Throw Back Collage”
Make a collage using your own pictures. Write

something about the pictures posted in your
collage. Use colored magazines to add more
designs to your work. Then present your
outputs to the class.

1.A child cannot eat alone. He needs the help of his
parents. What stage of development does he belong?
Infancy
2.What skills can a child display between the ages 2-10?

riddle – “In the morning, he moves with four feet, at midday
with two and in the afternoon, with three. Who I am?
Infant, adult, old age
5. If a child learns to walk directly, without passing through

crawling in his development stage, did he skip one of the
identified human development stage? Explain your answer.
No. He just developed his skills in advanced but he is still
considered a baby.
Children go through distinct
period of development as they
move from infants to young
adults. During each of these
stages multiple changes in the
development of the brain are
taking place.
What occurs and approximately
when these developments take
place are genetically determined.
However, environmental
circumstaces and exchange event.s
with key individuals within that
environment have significant
influence on how each child
benefits from each development.
