  23. Five Causes of the Baby Boom • For each cause, using pages 147-149, define your key concept and give a statistic to show how this factor helped cause the baby boom. Share with class after. • Increased birth rate • Increased marriage rate and marriage as the norm • Age of marriage for men and women • Increased immigration rate and characteristics of immigrants • War brides

  24. Application • Look at the graphs at each station and identify their main conclusions. Use the key concepts we have been learning since yesterday: • Demography • Social trend • Population growth • Natural increase • Natural decrease • Net migration • Baby boom generation • Cohort • Population pyramid Don’t forget to “read” the graph carefully: title, labels of axes.

  25. Back to Five Causes Groups • Which of the 7 graphs you just looked at would best illustrate/match/accompany your cause of the baby boom? • Why?

  26. Handout 2 and 3 • Use the data in handout 2 to fill in the blanks on handout 3 (in your course handout package). • We will need handout 3 later in the chapter so please complete it. You will need a calculator or your phone.

  27. HW • Read page 150 and do questions 2 and 4 on page 151. • Work on CCA as needed. • Complete handout 3.
