Students will gain a better understanding about how the tides are influenced by gravity and the position of the moon to the Earth. They will learn about the impact that sea level rise has on communities along the waterfront. We will create tide charts and learn how climate change and C02 production impacts the ocean and the animals that make it their home. We will learn about estuaries and watersheds. Students will also have a chance to mark the high and low tide in the BSSC tide pools and monitor how they change each day.
