AP Human Geography Module Four Lesson Four Assignment Classifying Population Pyramids In this assignment, you will classify the population pyramids according to the Demographic Transition Model. Please follow the directions below and complete the assignment in this document. 1. Start by picking a country from each row and identify which stage of the Demographic Transition Model that country fits into. Use the highlight tool to identify your chosen countries. Row 1 Guatemala Nigeria Palestine Yemen Afghanistan Row 2 Japan Germany Greece Ukraine Portugal Row 3 Botswana Colombia India Jamaica Mexico Row 4 Argentina China Brazil Singapore United States Row 1 Country DTM Stage: Row 2 Country DTM Stage: Row 3 Country DTM Stage: Row 4 Country DTM Stage: 2. You will find that there is not a country that fits in Stage 1 of the Demographic Transition Model. Explain below the characteristics of a country in the first stage of the DTM. [Type here] 3. For the country you chose from each row, you will create an example of a population pyramid, for a total of four pyramids. There are a couple different ways in which you can do this. You can print and draw the pyramid on the population pyramid template provided or create the pyramid in Google Sheets. (There are two pyramids on each sheet so you will print two sheets if you decide to use the templates. These templates are images: you must write or draw on them instead of typing.) If you choose to draw the pyramids, you will need to scan or take a photo of your pyramids and insert the images into this document. If you choose to use Google Sheets, you will need to link your document here. The text to link your document has been included below: Population Pyramid Examples (link your document to the text). 4. Now, write a paragraph of 5-7 sentences for each pyramid for a total of four paragraphs. In each paragraph, you will answer the following question in each explanation: How does this pyramid reflect the stage of the DTM it was chosen to represent? Using terms and concepts from the lesson, provide specific examples of why the country fits this stage of the DTM.
