Many of you have children and/ or younger siblings.  It's interesting to observe children and see if you can see their development in terms of the material we are studying.  You can observe c hildren you know, children at parks/ the mall, children in schools.  Observe behavior that seems relevant to material we are covering in course and relate the content to the theories/ terms/ concepts/ research we are covering. 

To earn credit you must: 1) provide a summary of what you observed, 2) describe what specific aspect of our course material is relevant to that  -- use the terms and theories of the course, and 3) discuss your observations.  That is, discuss if you think what you saw supports or contradicts material presented in class. 

Your work should be typed and be 2-3 paragraphs in length (a single sentence or two won't earn you the points). 

 These can be turned in at any date prior to the last class BEFORE dead week.
