My Own Development Level Story
1. Identify a goal, task, or skill that you are now completely competent at
doing, but at one time you could not do at all, and learning how to do it
took some time and effort.
2. Describe how you felt and what you did at each stage of your
development. In the appropriate columns, use pictures, words,
or phrases to describe your experience.
