Out of the swimming pool and into the math classroom! Young mathematicians analyze two linear functions representing the number of liters of water in a pool as it drains over time. They must evaluate functions, interpret function...

Swimming is more fun with quantities. The short assessment task encompasses finding the volume of a trapezoidal prism using an understanding of quantities. Individuals make a connection to the rate of which the pool is filled with a...

Take a dive into a three-dimensional task. Given a specific surface area, individuals must maximize the volume of a cylindrical swimming pool. They combine their understanding of surface area and volume to create a cubic function that...

Swimming pools are no fun without water. For a pool in the shape of a trapezoidal prism, scholars first calculate the amount of water needed to fill the pool. They use experimental data on water flow to determine whether to haul water...

In this calculating dimensions of a swimming pool worksheet, 6th graders solve the areas, the five depths, the volume, the square meters of tiles, the cost of the tiles, and convert the measurements from standard to metric. Students...

Different shape, same volume—that's quite a challenge! Scholars design a pool for an imaginary client using three-dimensional figures. They must then create a second pool for another client with the same volume, but using different shapes.

In this math instructional activity, students create the plans for building a swimming pool through calculating its surface area. Then they answer the 13 related questions.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders build a swimming pool using math to calculate all of the different dimensions. The pool is rectangular in shape and is measured in yards or meters. Students must convert to different units to...

Combine geometry and algebra concepts to solve a modeling problem. Young scholars consider the effect surface area has on volume. They write a cubic function to model the possible volume given a specific surface area and then...

An engaging, and not to mention attractive, lesson plan has prealgebra and beginning algebra scholars examining linear relationships. They consider the rising water level as a swimming pool is being filled. They do so by charting and...

Here is a real-world application for systems of equations. When is it better to pay an enrollment fee and lower daily rate, and when is it better to pay the regular price? The local swim center is having a special offer, reductions in...

Fill your mind with math as you think about filling a pool. Given information about the rates of two pipes, one filling a pool and one draining a pool, learners determine a piecewise function that models the volume of water in the pool...

It's great to have a large swimming pool. An interesting performance task asks learners to optimize the volume of pools for a given surface area. They consider four different shapes for pools and find the maximum volume for each pool.

How long does it take to fill a typical swimming pool? Prepare your pupils to answer similar questions using the 28th lesson in the 29-part module. The engaging lesson asks individuals to solve problems connected to the flow rate. All...

Peruse these perimeter word problems with beginning geometers, possibly projecting it as an all-class warm up. There are three scenarios here, each with a visual. Scholars determine the perimeter of a swimming pool, find the missing...

In this algebra worksheet, students calculate how lont it wil take to fill a pool given 3 different pipes. All of the pipes are turned on and fills at different speed, and one pipe empties the pool. There is an answer key with this problem.

Learners analyze and develop symbolic representations to describe the amount of water left in a pool being pumped out after a given amount of time, with various pumping rates and initial quantities of water in the pool.

How do you prevent the spread of water-borne illness in large public swimming areas? Scholars discover the challenges to identifying safe water through an inquiry experiment. They then produce posters sharing their understanding of water...

In this powers worksheet, 10th graders solve 10 different word problems that include various expressions with powers. First, they write an expression for volume of a cube that has a certain width, length, and height. Then, students...

In this estimation number sense enrichment worksheet, 2nd graders examine pictures in each problem in order to estimate the answer. They look at a partially filled book shelf and decide how many books it would take to fill the shelf....

Third graders use number sense and appropriate problem solving techniques to solve the assigned problems. They write out the solutions to the assigned problems. They work in groups to solve the problem before reporting back to the whole...
