- Counted the number of skateboards in the park
- Measured the length of the skateboard ramp
- Calculated the speed of the skateboard by timing how long it took to travel a certain distance
- Estimated the distance needed to perform a trick
- Counted the number of wheels on a skateboard
- Identified different shapes on the skateboard, such as the deck and wheels
- Compared the sizes of different skateboards
- Added up the scores from different skateboarding tricks
For continued development, the child can:
- Create a chart to track their progress in learning new skateboarding tricks, using math skills to record and analyze their scores.
- Measure the height of different skateboard ramps and compare them to see which one allows them to jump the highest.
- Use math to calculate the angles needed to perform different skateboarding tricks and experiment with different angles to improve their performance.
