Another post on the blogisphere for your education and enjoyment. Today in class we had a classic Geography lesson, breaking out the colouring-in pencils and using them to complete some great graphs. Check you all out, hard at work......
The Age-sex pyramids or population pyramids you drew are a type of graph geographers use to show how the population is broken up in terms of gender and age groups. From looking at these graphs we can tell if the birth rate of a country is high (fat base), if the birth rate is decreasing or increasing, what the life expectancy is (height of pyramid) and the death rate (how steep the sides are).
If you didn't quite manage to complete your graph today, HERE is the PowerPoint with the table of information for India. Below are some great examples of your super colouring-in and graphing abilities. Great work, Nina and Anneka!
