Geography | What Causes Hunger lesson activity worksheet

By Yugen Learning

In this no prep lesson, students learn to analyse and interpret the information on what causes Hunger's part of your Geography program.

This comprehensive and interactive lesson plan, entitled "What Causes Hunger?", guides students through a thoughtful exploration of the various factors contributing to global hunger.

It engages students in a detailed understanding of the cycle of poverty, lack of agricultural investment, effects of climate and weather, war and displacement, unstable markets, and food wastage, and how each of these components plays a role in the prevalence of hunger.

Resources included:

  • Guided instruction and links to external resources, such as the World Food Programme video "$1 a day," to provide a broader context and real-life representation of the issues.
  • Individual activities and reflection prompts that encourage students to form their own conclusions, as well as express and validate their ideas.
  • Discussion questions, both true or false and open-ended, to stimulate critical thinking and facilitate lively, thoughtful conversation in the classroom.
  • A concluding reflection, challenging students to make connections between hunger, poverty, and economic development.

This comprehensive lesson is designed to cultivate an empathetic, global perspective among students and inspire them to think critically about worldwide issues like hunger. Suitable for Social Studies, Geography, Economics, and Global Studies courses for middle and high school levels.

Aligned with Common Core Standards, this lesson also encourages students to apply their knowledge, analyze various viewpoints, and build strong argumentation skills. Download now to open your classroom to a comprehensive and compassionate study of world hunger.

Australian Geography Curriculum link:

Challenges to food production, including land and water degradation, shortage of fresh water, competing land uses, and climate change, for Australia and other areas of the world (ACHGK063)

Students will begin to see that certain features and shapes are often associated with particular population structures e.g. a wide base indicates a high birth rate, a narrow apex often indicates a high death rate, etc.

Within the lesson, students will be expected to apply this new knowledge and understanding by analyzing and interpreting a population pyramid from a range of countries.

Students also learn how variations in shape and size also relate to the dependency ratio (the amount of the population that is dependent on the working population) of a particular country. Students practice calculating and interpreting dependency ratio through a number of examples.

These slides can also be printed and displayed within the classroom or given to students as review notes.
