DEVELOPMENTAL
STAGES
02/11/2025 12
Which stage of life is the most important? Some might claim that
infancy is the key stage, when a baby’s brain is wide open to new
experiences that will influence all the rest of its later life. Others
might argue that it’s adolescence or young adulthood, when
physical health is at its peak. Many cultures around the world value
late adulthood more than any other, arguing that it is at this stage
that the human being has finally acquired the wisdom necessary to
guide others. Who is right? The truth of the matter is that every
stage of life is equally significant and necessary for the welfare of
humanity.

Using the Developmental Tasks Summary Table, assess
your own level of development as a Grade 12 student.
Processing Questions:
1. Being in Grade 12, what are the developmental tasks expected of you? Rate
yourself from 1-10 (10 as the highest) on whether you have accomplished
those expected tasks.
2. As you are in Grade 12, you are in transition from high school to college,
from being an adolescent to a young adult. How do you feel about this
transition?
3. Do you think you are ready for this transition which may mean more
responsibilities and greater accountability? If not, what are the expected tasks
you need to work on? If yes, what are the ways to take it so you can better plan
for the future?
HOW MINDFUL AM I?
In your journal, for each of the following situations, decide whether you
have followed these guidelines for mindful speech:
Is what I want to say True?
Is what I want to say Helpful?
Am I the best one to say it?
Is it necessary to say it Now?
Is it Kind to this person and others?
For each number, mark √ for yes, X for no, or? if you’re not sure. There
could be more than one 'correct' answer.

you’ve witnessed or experienced something similar in your own life.
