School age child development refers to the period of time when children are between the ages of 5 and 12. This is a period of time where growth and development has observable signs in the physical domain as skills and bodies strengthen, cognitive domain as memory and skills and  language and attention improves and social emotion domain while children find their place amongst their peers.  Your text covers in depth growth and development of school age children in chapters 1-=12, although we will not be reading those chapters in depth as we have in previous chapters of the text. 

For this assignment, you may utilize either the text, or information found in reliable internet sources.  You will also access Office 356 Microsoft Suite products--available to you on the left hand navigation bar of this course by creating a PowerPoint.
