- Measured the depth of the pool using a measuring tape
- Calculated the volume of the pool by multiplying the length, width, and depth
- Counted the number of laps swam and recorded the time taken for each lap
- Calculated the average time taken per lap
- Estimated the number of people in the pool by counting the number of people in a small section and multiplying it by the total number of sections
To continue developing math skills related to swimming, the child can:
- Calculate the distance swam by multiplying the length of the pool by the number of laps
- Compare lap times from different days to track progress and calculate improvement percentages
- Estimate the amount of water in the pool by calculating the volume and converting it to gallons or liters
