Puberty

Dear Parents,

Puberty, an inevitable phase, in which everyone goes through in the transition between child and adulthood. It’s a time of many changes, both physically and emotionally. It’s a period filled with new challenges.

The 4th grade students will be learning about the physical, social and emotional changes related to puberty. We will also discuss other topics such as personal hygiene, healthy habits (nutrition, rest and exercise) and peer pressure.

Boys and girls will be in separate classes.  The boys will meet with Mr. Boisjoli and the girls will meet with myself and the homeroom teachers.

Click on the links to access the girls’ and boys’ booklets containing information that will be discussed in class.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this issue or would like to know more information about the material that will be covered in class, please contact me via email, carla.maia@graded.br or phone, 3747-4800, Ext. 429.

Sincerely,

Carla Maia

Lower School Counselor
