As part of the unit which explores population change the Year 10 Geography classes have been investigating population structures. To do this they were introduced to population pyramids which are graphical representations of the age and sex structure of a specific country. To try and make a series of graphs more ‘fun’ the classes used Lego to create population pyramids for various countries. The students will now use the graphs as a starting point to question why a countries age - sex structure is as it is and whether they can be used to plan for a change in resources in the future.
