The Tides
Students experience a computer based applet that explains why the Earth experiences tides.
Curated OER
Tides
Students discover how the position of the Sun, Moon and Earth affect tides. For this science lesson, students view a presentation about the tides. Students discuss the different types of tides.

Of Tides and Time
Students use the internet to research how the time of day affects the tides. They work together to develop a demonstration of the tide patterns for a month. They create a chart showing the relationship between tides and the phases of...
Curated OER
Tides
Students graph 40 days of high and low tide data for a site in Baja, Mexico near the Wetlands & Fisheries Live! research center. They identify patterns in the data and finally to make a connection between tidal heights and the phase...
Curated OER
High and Low Tides
Young scholars collect real world data from the Web regarding high and low tides at various locations in the United States. They find a function which models this data and make predictions on tide levels based on the information found.
Curated OER
Ride the Tide
Students examine the cause-and-effect relationship between tides and the rocky coast ecosystem. They complete a worksheet that illustrates the intertidal zone.
Curated OER
The Tides of Change Worksheet (Part 1)
In this science worksheet, 1st graders track the tides of the ocean for a number of days and examine the data to determine the meaning of the pattern.
Curated OER
Tides of Change
Students use the Internet to gather information on tides and then use this information to determine the period of revolution of the moon around the earth (part 1) and the relative pull of the sun and the moon on the tides (part 2).
Curated OER
Tides and Currents
Students research and describe how currents are formed. In groups, they relate specific terms to the formation of currents and locate different currents on a world map. They also examine tides, how they are formed and how they are...
Illustrative Mathematics
Tides
A very simple example of a functional relationship between depth of water and time is shown here. In fact, it might be more useful to use a coastal tide book to better illustrate this real-world experience. Pupils are to count the number...
