- Complete this worksheet once you have watched the Strange Situation clip and read through the Strange Situation PowerPoint.

- This PowerPoint has the same information that we covered during Friday's class (24/5).

On Monday 20th May we looked at the Powerpoint and the different types of research methods used to study heredity and environment (Longitudinal, cross-sectional, twin studies, adoption studies, selective breeding). We discussed these, brain storming when the different methods would be useful and when they wouldn't be useful. We then created a family tree to assess the relationship of inheritance and particular characteristics eg. hair colour, eye colour, height etc. Below is my family tree. Create your own to assess the inheritance of characteristics among your family.

Worksheet we completed in the first lesson of lifespan psychology.

Below are the 'Genie' film clips, in class we watched the first 2 and a half of them. We looked at Genie and we were also introduced to Victor. Remember when watching these clips take notes on the effects the situation has had on the individual's physical, intellectual, emotional and social development.

'Wikispace' won't let me upload anymore video's due to how large they are. However if you do a quick google search for 'Secret of the Wild Child' you will find the film clips. Sorry guys!!

After watching part 1, 2, 3 and 4 of Secret of the Wild Child we completed the worksheet below in regards to the Genie case study - completed in class on Monday 13/05 - **Andrea, Mikayla, Keonie, Soraya and Brooke** were absent, therefore in order to catch up you need to complete this worksheet in your own time.

Heredity factors vs. environmental factors - completed in class on Wednesday 15/05.
