Hormones
Remember those things called hormones, which are responsible for all the changes your body goes through during puberty?

Well, your changing emotions are because of those hormones, too!


Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Hormones
Testosterone in males and oestrogen in females are the chemical messengers that travel through your body at the time of puberty, telling it to grow and change and to start turning into an adult.

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

Its a crush
As you get older, you might start to have different feelings towards people around you. Instead of just liking a person as a friend, you might start experiencing stronger feelings for that person. 

You might love being with them and want to spend more time with them. You might feel a bit nervous and shy but excited at the same time when you see them. You might want to get to know them more, do the things they do or dress more like them. You might feel attracted to them or some might say that you fancy them.

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Managing our emotions
Our emotions may get a little confusing as we go through puberty. 

We might have strong feelings that we haven’t really had before and we might not have had anyone to talk to about it or we might not even want to talk about it.

Slide 13 - Tekstslide

Growing and changing Poem
I keep on getting taller,
People say I’m ‘filling out’!
My voice keeps going squeaky
Whenever I talk or shout.
My face is getting spotty,
‘Don’t pick them or they’ll scar!’
My hair keeps getting greasy
And I’ve just bought my first bra.
One minute I am laughing,
The next I want to cry!
My emotions are all over the place - can someone tell me why?
It can be a little scary –
All these changes that I see.
But it’s also quite exciting
What is happening to me.
