OUTLINE: DEFORESTATION: General definition. Show general pictures in relation to ‘deforestation’. Photographs of deforestation Natural VS un-natural change Deforestation caused by population growth and farming Causes habitat loss =cutting down habitat for industries and farming (less habitat= endangered species) 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

In TROPICAL RAINFORESTS : Monkeys swing though giant trees 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

On CORAL REEFS : colourful fish swim away from shark 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

 On African GRASSLANDS : Lions stalk Zebras 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

PEOPLE:  People destroy these HABITATS so that they can build cities and houses  This causes SPECIES to become EXTINCT 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

 TIGERS: There are only 4,000 left  GORILLAS: 700 left  Can you find one more? Why are they endangered? 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

 100 years ago there were 1,700 million people in the world.  Today: There are MORE THAN 6,700 million! !!!!!!  More people = more building= less natural HABITATS= less animals  07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

HABITAT loss is a big problem for WILD LIFE When people BUILD on NATURAL habitat Animals LOSE FOOD and HOMES 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

HABITATS : Can change NATURALLY over time EG: HEAVY RAIN fills a valley= Makes new LAKE EARTHQUAKE : Opens ground, makes new valley 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

HABITATS are being WIPED OUT by people HOW?: Through building  TOWNS  FARMS  ROADS  SHOPPING CENTRES  FACTORIES  AIRPORTS 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

IN GROUPS: 1. EXPLAIN WHAT IS A TROPICAL RAIN FOREST? 2. EXPLAIN HOW PEOPLE DESTROY WILD LIFE AND THEIR HABITS 3. DEFINE HABITAT 4. DEFINE WILD LIFE. WHERE DO THESE TYPES OF ANIMALS/SPECIES LIVE? IN A HOUSE? IN A ZOO??? 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

5. EXPLAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN NATURAL CHANGE AND UNNATURAL CHANGE. WHICH COLUMN DO THE FOLLOWING BELONG?:  CHOPPING DOWN TREES  EARTHQUAKES SPLITTING GROUNDS  MOUNTAINS FORMING  DELIBERATE FIRES TO BURN OUT BUSHES/FORESTS  BUILDING ON LAND  FLOOD CREATING A DAM  DIGGING HOLES TO MAKE A DAM 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

OUTLINE: REVIEW previous week Endangered Species: define. Visual stats Discussion: forming opinions Commence mind map: “How does farming impact animals” HOMEWORK: VOCAB & SPELLING; ORANGU-TAN RESEARCH TOPIC: FOOD & HABITAT FACTS 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

PARTICULAR SPECIES BECOMING VERY FEW IN NUMBERS POSSIBLE WILL BECOME ENDANGERED 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

NOT ENOUGH OF THIS SPECIES LEFT. POSSIBLY WILL BECOME EXTINCT NEEDS HELP FROM HUMANS TO SURVIVE AND BREED 2. THREATENED 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller

PARTICULAR ANIMAL OR PLANT NO LONGER EXISTS. NONE LEFT. GONE. FINISHED  3. EXTINCT 07/2010 Yrs8, 9, 9/10 Geography: J.Stott, J.Tilley & K.Miller
