A Life Calendar: Make a life calendar for hypothetical person. Assume that this person lived 80 years and represent the 80 year period as a single calendar year in which he or she was born on January 1st and died on December 31st.
 
  Estimate the calendar dates on which this person reached various life milestones. For example, when did he or she take their first step? Speak their first word? Start elementary school? Finish high school? When did he or she retire? Does your life calendar for this particular person give any insight into human lives in general?
