Today

Today we looked at more population pyramids. We went to a website that showed us a population pyramid from 1950 to 2100. We could see it for different places and we evaluated what type of pyramid it was. For example, the U.S. is a box. I found it very cool seeing how the pyramids change. Back in 1950, the U.S. used to be a Christmas tree. But over time things change. We looked at the world, the U.S., Japan, Nigeria. Each has a major difference from the other and we saw the change in population over time from the past and even in the future. I wondered what Japan's pyramid would look like during world war two, but it didn't go back that far so I was a bit disappointed but what can you do.
