Human Geo 12/12/17

Today in Human Geography we talked about how the exams were going to go and which room we were going to be in. Mr. Schick told us that we would have mainly multiple choice questions with one constructed response question and we talked a lot about the concept of the demographic transition chart and how we would have to look at all of the different stages of the chart and show how each of them meant a different stage for a different country and how every stage meant a different place with birth rate and death rate. In stage one a country has a high birth rate and a high death rate, in stage two a country has a high birth rate and a rapidly decreasing death rate, in stage three the death rate slows its fall and the birth rate begins to fall, in stage four the death rate has flattened out and the birth rate is starting to mellow out at the bottom, with stage five both the birth and death rate are low but the death rate is higher.
