Social Studies 8

Today we reviewed Section 1 - Population Geography. We discussed how the economy is related to populations and resources available. We also discussed the four main sectors of economies around the world.

Assignment: No Textbook Needed - Economics/Math Worksheet. For the Math side, students will calculate population densities for 8 countries - divide the population by the area - then graph the results in a bar graph. For the Economics side, students will need to find the jobs that their parents and grandparents have/had and then catagorize them into primary, secondary, tertiary, or quaternary services. We will discuss the results in class tomorrow. The purpose is to see if the economy in our area has changed over time.
