Stage five?????

Today in class we watched more videos on the demographic transition and went over the packet we read yesterday. Some people still didn't know there was a stage 5 so i had to tell everyone about it. Stage 5 is a stage that has not yet been put on the demographic transition, but its when there is a negative natural increase and has a bigger death rate then birth rate. A lot of countries are moving to this stage including countries like Japan,Germany, and Italy. Even the USA is heading in the stage 5 direction and will be there soon. We watched two videos today one with a doctor named Kim who Mr.Shick kept making fun of, and one from Khan Academy that Mr.Shick said was a boy or girl. Since he did not want to assume the speakers gender he called her "they", and he also got really excited every time she did a population pyramid for each of the 5 stages. He would always pause the video and say "Whatttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!". After a while it became a recurring theme or a motif and the class started saying it too. By the time we were at stage 5 we all knew what to say and it was very funny.
