Students will be able to recap the key learning from previous lessons on Asia and population features, students will also be asked to identify features on a population pyramid and identify the mean of the data. Students will recap what overpopulation is from the previous lesson and then describe what was happening to China before the One Child Policy. Students then investigate the two ways that were used to limit population before the policy and then they will investigate the rules and the punishments of the policy. Finally students will identify if the one child policy was effective and if it outweighs the cost in a newspaper article.

Students will be able to recap the key learning from previous lessons on Asia and features of population, they will also be able to describe the mode of data on their white boards as a starter. Then students will be asked to describe what overpopulation is and what its effects might be. Then using a choropleth map to describe where globally is densely populated. There is then a video to watch to describe the problems with overpopulation. Students are to match up the causes of over population to the definition and describe why.
