• Prepare a Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation, flow chart, or other visual aid to provide an overview of the normal developmental expectations for each of the five developmental stages. Your presentation must include a brief description of each of the five stages of development as well as normal expectations for each stage.

can you help me with a better understanding plz. i know i have to do a powerpoint but i am lost after that. thank you

Go ahead and write a brief description from information I've posted for you online and from your text materials.

We'll be glad to check your descriptions. Since this is a power point, you'll want to keep them short and to the point.

what info r they talking about

is that like infant early childhood etc.? if so then what do i do

"normal developmental expectations for each of the five developmental stages."

Yes.

What do you expect of an infant? What are the normal characteristics of the infant?

What do you expect of a child?

And so on.

Please go back and read the sites I've already posted about developmental development.

And so on.

ok ty do u possible have those so i can book mark them>?

Click on your name above. It will link you to all of your posts.

„P so i have to make a slide for all these? for each one?

Physical development
„P Emotional development
„P Cognitive development
„P Intellectual development
„P Language development
„P Reading/Writing development
„P Social development
„P Interpersonal development

Check with your instructor. However, I believe that you may only need to include the most obvious characteristics for each stage. For instance, for infancy, the most obvious characteristics are cognitive, emotional, social, and interpersonal characteristics.
