The Problem

A family moves into a new house with a large backyard.  As the summer comes, they are considering placing a pool in the yard.  What are the key issues that need to be considered, and would using the area for something other than a pool be a better idea?

A Backyard Pool - Yea or Nay?

Students will review the pros and cons of having a pool, as well as different pool options, and other ideas for using vacant land.
