Family Life Cycle Gallery Walk – 6 Stages of Life Posters & Activities

This Family Life Cycle Gallery Walk activity is designed to help students explore the six stages of life: 

• Beginning Stage
• Childbearing Stage
• Parenting Stage
• Launching Stage
• Mid-Years Stage
• Aging Stage

Each stage is accompanied by an 11x8.5 poster that provides an overview of the key concepts, allowing students to dive deep into the unique roles, responsibilities, emotions, and challenges faced at each life stage.

With the quad-fold brochure worksheet, students are prompted to summarize each stage, reflect on the emotional highs and lows, responsibilities, and challenges that occur in each phase. This activity is perfect for high school family and consumer science classes, and it encourages independent thought while promoting engaging classroom interactions.

Ideal for a gallery walk setup, the activity can be done in small groups, allowing students to actively engage with each stage and discuss among the group.

Enhance your students' understanding of life stages, family dynamics, and personal growth in a fun and interactive way. This resource is suitable for high school family and consumer science, health education, child development and parenting courses.
