  3. By the end of the lesson By the end of the lesson you: • MUST be able to list factors that cause population to change • SHOULD be able to explain how different situations can cause population change • MAY be able to link the examples used in the lesson to real life situations

  4. What is population? Think, pair, share… Think about… • How population increases • How population decreases • What type of people there are in a population

  5. Feedback! Think, pair, share… What is population?

  19. Now you’ve finished After you have finished the game and have completed your worksheets consider the following questions as a group? • Which scenarios changed the birth rate? • Which scenarios changed the death rate? • Which scenarios changed the migration rate? • Which scenarios were push factors of migration? • Which scenarios were pull factors of migration?

  20. Now you’ve finished • Who do you think won? • What makes them the winning country? • Is it the country with the highest population or the most balanced population structure? • What type of country do you represent?

  21. Jelly Plenary • Create 3 other situations that could go in the game as chance cards • We can share these in a minute • Make them original, interesting and plausible
