What are the consequences of people moving?

Overall rating 4 out of 54 (5 ratings)

Last updated 13 March 2013, created 06 June 2010, viewed 5,531

This resource is a PowerPoint and worksheet that explores urbanisation and shanty towns. It uses a video on the Current TV website about Lagos, Nigeria. There are very good opportunities to number crunch and graph data for megacities. Ideal as a lesson for KS3 students in both Geography and Mathematics.
