3 INFORMATION GATHERING 1. Have student form groups of 2-3 students. 2. Have students complete a Concept Map describing the word rural and urban. RURAL URBAN Definitions Rural Areas are sparsely settled and away from the influence of large cities and towns; areas with mostly farmland and little human population; the country (Census Bureau defines rural as areas not defined as urban and generally has a population less than 2500) Agrarian Society A society in which agriculture or faming is the primary means of subsistence. Urban - Areas occupied by buildings and related facilities used for residences, industrial sites, instructional sites, public highways, airports, and similar uses associated with towns and cities; a densely populated are; the city (Census Bureau defines urban as having a population density of 1000 person per square mile and a total population of at least 50,000)
4 3. Read the following to the students. Today, the Texas economy is thriving like never before. Urban areas such as Houston, Dallas, Ft. Worth, San Antonio, and other Texas cities are growing faster and are more dynamic and resilient than ever before. Even Austin, our state capital is known as the new Silicon Hills because of the growth of the high tech industry there. Texas has become one of the most urbanized states in the nation, with more than 4/5s of its residents living in urban areas. The same visitor in rural Texas would have to look much harder to see this economic change and growth. He would still see town squares, oil wells, crops, and pastures of livestock, but a closer look would reveal growth but in a state of turmoil. Some of these rural communities have few shoppers, thinning herds of livestock, and motionless pump jacks. Plus, the geographical factors of drought, hurricanes, and fires have affected the growth of these areas. So, what are the push-pull factors that have caused people to leave rural Texas and move to urban areas? We will see in this next activity. DEFINITION Push-Pull Factor - A factor that involves a force which acts to drive people away from a place and/or draw them to a new location. 4. Students will be given three charts to use to interpret and analyze the push-pull factors that have caused people to leave rural Texas and move to urban areas of Texas. CHARTS T-CHART: Texas-Rural Life/Urban Life TABLE: Fastest Growing Occupations in Texas TIMELINE: Texas in the 20 th Century 5. They will complete questions for each chart. Interpreting the push pull factors and analyzing the economic, political, social, and geographic factors that have caused people to leave rural Texas and move to urban areas of Texas. QUESTIONS T-CHART: Texas-Rural Life/Urban Life TABLE: Fastest Growing Occupations in Texas TIMELINE: Texas in the 20 th Century Definition Economic Characteristics that have to do with the production, development, and management of material wealth of a country, household, or business enterprise; how people make a living.
5 Political- Characteristics that have to do with the structures and affairs of government, politics and its institutions, or politicians Social Characteristics that have to do with the way people live together in communities or similar organized groups, language, religion, lifestyle, etc. Geographical- Characteristics that have to do with the earth, its features and the distribution of those features Processing Activity and Closure 1. As a group, students will circle the most important factor on each questionnaire that explains the reasons Texas has changed from a rural/agrarian to urban society. 2. They will then list them on a classroom push-pull chart. 3. Each group will pick a speaker and they will explain one of the factors their group picked. 4. In their notebook, have the students design a symbol explaining the most important factor for Texas changing from an agrarian to urban society.(examples might be a diploma, a dollar sign, a cloud (pollution), something to do with a type of job, etc.) Then inside the symbol have them answer this question in complete sentences following the classroom writing rules. Enrichment What is the most important factor that has caused Texas to change from a rural/agrarian to an urban society? Have students read the article Church in shrinking town closes on 100 th birthday or any other article describing the issues confronted by a small town. Then, have students research the economic, political, social, and geographical characteristics of Rochester, Texas to use to develop a plan to Save Rochester. Associated Press. Church in shrinking town closes on 100 th birthday. Austin American Statesman, July 10, 2006, B5.
