This looks like a strong plan! Your notes tell me that you researched the key points, and your outline shows that you've thought out how you're going to get the information across. Please be more specific in your outline about what your pictures are going to be. Add resources to this page so I know where you got your information. --Mr. Beyer

TIDE NOTES

TIDES- The daily rise and fall of the level of the ocean or other large body of water, caused by the gravitational attraction of the moon and the sun.

SPRING TIDES- The exceptionally high and low tides that occur at the time of the new moon, or the full moon when the sun, moon, and Earth are all approximately aligned.

NEAP TIDES- Like spring tides, neap tides occur twice each month, when the moon is in its first quarter and third quarter phases. These tides are less extreme.

Tides occur by the gravitational attraction of the moon which causes the ocean to bulge out in the direction of the moon. Another bulge occurs on the opposite side because the moon is also being pulled towards the earth. Since the Earth is rotating while this is happening, two tides occur each day.
