This document outlines a science lesson plan for 5th grade students on puberty. The lesson plan aims to help students understand the physical and psychological changes of puberty, strategies for managing the emotional and social issues associated with it, and promote respect for one's own and the opposite sex's body. Over the course of one week, students will learn about the pituitary gland and hormones, discuss the experiences of puberty, compare and contrast changes experienced by boys and girls using a Venn diagram, view a presentation on the menstrual cycle, practice related exercises to assess their understanding, and summarize the lesson using provided terms.
