3+tides

I like your plan! You've covered all of the key points and you have a clear structure that's well thought out. Please remove the goodbye page, as it doesn't contribute to providing or checking information. Which interactive activity are you going to use? Look through them and choose the activity, then put it into your outline. --Mr. Beyer

TIDES By: Nicole and Dylan

=** Tidal Waves- A tidal wave is when an earthquake occurs on the ocean floor. The waves can reach speeds of 400 and 500 miles per hour depending on the depth of the sea. **=

=** Tides- Tides are the rise and fall of the sea levels caused by the combined effects of the gravitational forces exerted by the moon and the sun and the rotation of the earth. Tides occur with a period of approximately 12 and a half hours. **=

=** Spring Tides- They are especially strong tides. They occur when the Earth, the Sun, and the Moon are in a line. The gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun both contribute to the tides. They occur during the full moon and the new moon. **=

= = = = =** Neap Tides- They are especially weak tides. They occur when the gravitational forces of the Moon and the Sun are perpendicular to one another. They also occur during quarter Moons. **=
