Population Pyramids

We have begun our work with the graphs called population pyramids. These graphs divide a population by age and gender to show the make up of a population. Students made one of the world's population. Our next steps are to write thinking questions using the world's population pyramid. Ask to see your students pyramid and questions!

If you'd like to look at some pyramids yourself visit this site:
