site: Barwon Bluff Marine Sanctuary
Yes, I have been busy collecting lots more great sites, which I’ll be sharing through the rest of the spring and into the summer. The site this week is a great reference and resource for teaching students about tides. Living in Arizona most of my students have very little experience with tides. I used this site to demonstrate the relationships between the Earth, moon and sun during different tides for my students and it helped answer a lot of questions. Click on the home page link for ideas and resources. I found the most valuable bits to be the two animations and the slide show of high & low tides. Lots of good ocean-related resources!
