This document outlines a lesson plan to teach students about population distribution, density, growth and its implications. Students will discuss factors influencing population patterns, examine theories of population change, and consider the economic and environmental impacts of rapid growth. They will analyze population data through graphs, diagrams and storyboards to demonstrate their understanding. Assessment will include writing, storyboarding, blogging, and creating visualizations of population statistics.

1. Storyboard
Population

2. Outcomes
• Identify the factors influencing population distribution and density
• Explain how theories of population may be used to predict changes in the
elements of population
• State the implications of rapid population growth on the economy and the
environment
• Create graphs and diagrams to show population data

3. Activities
• Forum discussion and reading to summarize the factors which impact on
population density and distribution in a selected country
• Establish a blog on selected country’s social, economic and ecological issues as a
result of either population growth or decline.
• Use population data from approved studies to construct population pyramids, graph
showing growth or decline, or specific features ( World Reports

4. Assessment
• Report writing
• Storyboarding
• Blogging
• Design a graph or population pyramid
