A complete lesson that covers the description and interpretation of population pyramids. It is a fully resourced standalone lesson but follows on from the demographic transition lesson. No other resources are required and worksheets of up to date pyramids for annotation are included. I have also included a past exam question. Aimed at GCSE, this would also be suitable for KS3 as the activities can differentiate by outcome.

A fully resourced key stage 3 lesson within the topic of population. This lesson looks at how we can read, analyse and interpret population pyramids to make sense of the data they show us. It culminates in getting students to construct their own for the UK.

This lesson describes how to obtain and use sampling results to calculate an estimate for the population size of a sessile, slow-moving or motile organism. The PowerPoint and accompanying worksheets are part of the second lesson in a series of 4 lessons that have been designed to cover the content of topic 7.4 (Populations in ecosystems) of the AQA A-level Biology specification and includes descriptions of the use of randomly placed quadrats, quadrats along a belt transect and the mark-release-recapture method. As you can see from the image, step by step guides are included in the lesson that walk the students through each stage of the calculations and these are followed by opportunities to challenge their understanding by answering exam-style questions. Mark schemes for the 7 questions that are answered over the course of the lesson are embedded into the PowerPoint and this allows the students to assess their progress. When considering the mark-release-recapture method, the assumptions that are made and the precautions that need to be taken are considered and the students are challenged to link the changes in the numbers of rabbits to the topic of stabilising selection.

Activity for pupils to draw and compare population pyramids for The Gambia and The UK, using 2023 data. There is a outline set of axes with an example plot on it for lower ability pupils and a labelling activity to pupils to demonstrate their ability to interpret the graphs. In addition there is a visual hexagons task which asks pupils to explain various factors and their influence on population size and structure which would make a good homework task.

A summary worksheet for A-Level Biology comprising three exercises, including calculation of population growth, interpretation of survival curves and interpretation of population pyramids (showing increasing, stable and decreasing population). Key words: Population, pyramid, biology, survival, curves, graph, growth, increase, percentage

AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification unit 2B. In this lesson we look at how population pyramids can reveal changing population structures and levels of development. There is a literacy starter based on the content learned so far in the unit. We begin with an introductory video on population pyramids and the students have a question sheet to answer whilst they watch the video. Using the information they have gleaned from the video they then annotate two contrasting population pyramids to consolidate how the graphs can reveal a great deal about a country’s level of development. We briefly look at dependency rations and the students have a go at calculating a simple example ratio. We then construct a population pyramid for Nigeria using a worksheet and the students can then consider what it reveals about the country. The students then examine an ageing population but looking at Japan’s changing population structure and the students complete a task looking at the factors that have contributed top this. We then tackle a 6-mark GCSE-style question using the population pyramids they annotated earlier. There is a writing frame for structure and guidance on points to use. . hope this saves you valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

This resource on Populations & sustainability: What determines population size? OCR A-level biology contains an entire lesson. The Powerpoint presentation provides a series of student activities interspersed by illustrative information slides to keep learning active. The resource incorporates activities for a complete lesson in the delivery of the following graded lesson objectives: Describe the factors that determine population size (Grade C) Explain the impact of limiting factors on carrying capacity and final population size (Grade B) Compare how r- and k-Strategists are adapted to reach carrying capacity (Grade A) The activities include 1) Defining key terms (carrying capacity, limiting factors, competition) followed by a mark scheme and the opportunity for students to self-assess their answers; 2) Labelling a growth curve (A = lag phase, B = log phase, C = stationary phase and K = carrying capacity) followed by a mark scheme for self-assessment; 3) identifying characteristics of R- and K-strategists; 4) Population Dynamics Question sheet plenary activity. Students are able to use the Student Notes document to fill in information from the Powerpoint as the lesson progresses. There is a Student Notes Script Answers that gives example of answers that may be expected from students. Students are then able to use the the graded lesson objectives provided to reflect on their learning at the end of the lesson. This resource is available as a single lesson and provides an example of the content and quality of my resources for GCSE and A Level biology, many of which are available as a much larger series of lessons in a bundle at a discount.

READY TO TEACH (LESSON 3/11 - JAPAN: AGEING POPULATION). Show pupils a range of images, all are linked to the same country (slides 1-10). Pupils are to raise their hand when they think they know the country, no shouting out. Recap with the class how diverse the country of Japan is (slide 11). Introduce the focus of today’s lesson, with a link to Japan’s future conveyed in a population pyramid (a reference to last lesson). Ask pupils to compare what is different between the population pyramids of 1960 and 2050 - link their ideas to the fact Japan’s population is rapidly growing old. Reinforce this point with the horizontal bar graph (slide 13). Show pupils the clip discussing the world’s ageing population. Pupils make a note of the definition - ageing population (slide 15). Discuss the cartogram map on slide 16 - identify where the world’s ageing population is located, make reference to Europe, contrast with the continent of Africa. Show clip discussing Japan’s ageing population. Discuss with pupils the current and future statistics about Japan’s population (slide 17). Discuss with pupils the causal factors for an ageing population (slide 18). Pupils can make their own notes in their books. Analyse the choropleth maps (slide 19). Pupils suggest problems with an ageing population. Link the ideas to the task, pupils rearrange the statements under the following headings: problems of an ageing population and solutions to an ageing population. This can be completed in a card sort format, or written directly from the slide into books. Recap statements (slide 20). To conclude the lesson, discuss with pupils how Japan must address some of these solutions in the future, if they want to tackle the problems created by an ageing population. If time permitting, show the clip discussing ROBEAR - the experimental nursing care robot - is this the solution? Pupils’ homework task is to answer questions based upon the podcast: Japan - New ways to grow old, for self-assessment next lesson.

Powerpoint guiding students through the causes and effects of the world's population explosion. Includes an activity on the causes, effects and solution of deforestation.

Lesson covers the meaning of population pyramids and how they vary Activities include matching pyramids and their descriptions to different stages of the DTM All resources included within the ppt

Includes a case study on Japan’s Hashima Island (“Battleship Island”). This also can be printed but it works well as a homework task or for remote-learning where every student can complete their own digital copy of the document with their answers.
