How to make a developmental binder showcasing infant through adolescent

Published

We had to make a "developmental Binder" starting at infant through adolescent. Each section must include physical growth and dev, developmental theorist, major mile stones, anticipatory guidance, parental concerns and observations. Has anyone had to do something like this? if so I would appreciate examples, this is worth 100 pts!

What are your ideas, based upon your assignment parameters?

How would you complete this assignment if there was no internet? Think about that question, then act upon it.

100 points is worth an investment of your initiative. So glad you joined AN.com, but hoping you didn't join just with the hope of obtaining homework help.

Will you split your points with the people who help you? ;)

Seriously though, this actually sounds like a fun project (to me anyway). I know you'll find tons of great stuff with a little searching. Child life specialists are great resources for developmental stuff...you might find some good info if you look on the website for the Child Life Council.

I have already found tons of information I guess I just don't know how to put it together. I will check out that website though, thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the feedback, I just don't know how I am going to start this off. It is a lack of ideas not information that prompted me to ask if anyone had any ideas. I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually. Thanks ;)

This is what I would do to make it fun. I would invent a boy and girl and give them names. Then I would tell their story from birth through adolescence! You must however start at each stage and include all the information in that stage,physical,psychological and social growth per the theorist and all the other components your assignment calls for. Then just take your imaginary person and give a sample of how the information would apply.Do you understand what the idea is? This is my first idea.

Following this train of thought you could follow the pattern of those baby books that parents fill out, every month/year has a page for specific things, and it just repeats for every age.
