Understanding how bodies change

This Kapow pupil video is part of the Kapow Science scheme of work. It is designed for pupils and explains the physical and emotional changes that occur during puberty, a key stage in human development. The video follows the journey from childhood to adulthood, showing how bodies grow and change in different ways for boys and girls.

It covers key developments such as growth spurts, body hair, changes to genitals, voice deepening, menstruation, and breast development. Pupils also learn about the role of hormones in driving these changes and the importance of hygiene during puberty. The video reassures pupils that everyone goes through puberty at their own pace and explores the emotional ups and downs that are part of this natural transition to adulthood.

The video is designed to be shown to pupils as part of Science, key stage 2, Year 5, Animals: Human timeline, Lesson 2: Puberty
