Description
Online Puberty, Proactive Education 11—14, years 2023.
Our Online Puberty Courses meet Australian Curriculum Objectives as outlined in the National, State and Scootle documents.
The Courses are designed for ages 11-14 years. Each book speaks to the individual male or female reader at the appropriate age level.
The books are divided into two sections, the first section is the story book and the second section is for working in a group, (school or otherwise), or with the family.
The Student Will Learn 11-14 Years:
1) How hormones work and change the body and brain and this can change the way they think and behave.
2) How the demands of the body are driven by hormones and how respect for other people must be understood at all times.
3) How puberty and the role of adulthood has responsibilities.
4)The reaction by the brain and behaviour can be driven by hormones.
5) How the brain can be controlled and the way the student thinks, can result in different hormone release, which can or may lead to unwanted behaviour.
The Books for 11-14 years, are a 130 page story book, which introduces the young adult to the story of how either Jai or Caitlin , together with their friends, start to understand the ’Changes’ their bodies are making or changing. Jai is a young Indian boy, who together with his family, have migrated to Australia and lives in Bulahdelah, NSW.
Jai, with his best friend Nullah, a First Nation teen, befriend a boy from Sydney, and all three learn about the Australian bush, puberty from their schoolteacher and Aunty Betty, a practising GP and First Nation Elder.
Caitlin lives in Northern Ireland and is a paraplegic who has a goal to enter the future Para-Olympics.
Together, with her friend Molly, they learn from Sheena, a research doctor and endocrinologist researching at the university in Northern Ireland, a lot about hormones, and how the body works in different ways, through different hormones activate at different times, as the girls go through puberty.
The story gives a different perspective to ‘real life’ stories and events in a young person’s life.
