Pregnancy and Fetal Development

Through a student participation activity, the class will determine: the signs and symptoms of pregnancy, what is healthy and unhealthy during a pregnancy and the anticipated challenges for an adolescent mother and her child. Though a student and teacher involved worksheet, the class learns about fe tal development and growth as they relate fetal size to familiar items like fruits and vegetables throughout all nine months. A young person ’ s personal success in life, is greatly influenced by what is commonly known as the Success Sequence; the concept of delaying childbearing until adulthood. Students are introduced to that Success Sequence, 1) finish school, 2) secure a job, 3) get married 4) then have children.
