World Bank: 'extreme poverty' to fall below 10% of world population for first time

Concepts of Thinking: Geographic Perspective, Pattern and Trends, Spatial Significance

Lesson idea: 
1) Make predictions where in the world extreme poverty may be found. 
2) Create a  Spatial Journal of the countries and make a note of their living conditions i.e. extreme poverty. 
3) Analyse the map. What patterns do you see? How does this compare to your predictions. How can you account for the discrepancies, if there
were any?
4) Create a Story Map to communicate your results.

Is there any other information that could help the analysis i.e. How many people live poverty, not extreme poverty? Is this number going up or down? How does the World Bank come up with these numbers? Is the World Bank the best organization to determine poverty levels around the world? Why publish this number and the total poverty numbers?
