Our Global Population - KS3 Geography Extension Pack

Four ready-to-use enrichment activities for KS3 Geography students who have mastered the basics of global population — ideal for extension tasks, homework, cover lessons, or stretching high achievers. No preparation required. Suitable for students aged 11-14.

Each activity targets higher-order thinking: a 12-term vocabulary matching exercise covering birth rate, death rate, natural increase, natural decrease, population, family planning, aging population, sanitation, population explosion, census, natural increase rate, and population projection; a 25-mark challenge quiz including a birth rate calculation, a natural increase rate table for Niger, Japan and the UK, a data response comparing population growth across two historical periods, and evaluative questions on sanitation versus healthcare and the reasons for slowing global growth; a 20-mark Niger and Japan case study with analysis, explanation and evaluation questions exploring why two countries have such different population trajectories; and a creative Teach It Back task where students write a clear guide explaining global population to a Year 6 student, assessed with a provided four-level rubric. Full answer keys and marking guidance are included for all activities.

Pairs with the main 100-mark KS3 Geography worksheet on this topic, also on TES. Buy both together as a complete lesson bundle and save £1.
