Jelly Baby Population Game
All populations have a structure . This is usually represented on a diagram called a population pyramid…
The structure is made up of a particular combination of cohorts.
A cohort is an age group, or a particular section of the population.
Cohorts include: YOUNG PEOPLE… (also called young dependents)
Middle Aged People – ‘the workers’…
… and Old People .. (or elderly dependents) although increasingly people are having to work for a lot longer - as will you have to….
Of course populations change for various reasons…
People are born…
People die….
People move in…
People move out…
… and we all get older every day…
How will the population of ‘your’ country change in response to a series of ‘chance’ events ?? Let’s play the game…
