Instructional Video: Tides Jigsaw.webmDirections: Split up the four readings between you and up to four partners. Use the note catcher provided on the website to capture your thinking before, during, and after your reading. REMEMBER asking questions and inferring helps us think deeper, push yourself to dig into this and truly understand. After silently reading, go back and record specific points, draw diagrams, and/or write a summary about the important points. You will then be responsible for teaching the rest of your group about your portion of the text by either talking/video chatting about it or posting a video explanation on Flipgrid. As you hear their explanations, make sure to fill in the rest of your note catcher. An additional video is posted below as a visual model of the reading.

undefined.webmThis is a question almost everyone asks at one point or another in school, right? Watch the new report to the left and consider the following questions to guide your thinking:
What is the connection between tides (king tides) and climate change?
How do you think this "new normal" will affect how/where people can live?
Will this be a problem for more than just coastal regions?
What might be a solution to this problem? Or is there no solution?
Assignment:
Create a way to raise awareness about this issue. You could create a commercial, podcast, informational brochure, social media ad, etc. to alert people to this ongoing problem.
In order to make sure people are properly informed, make sure to include:
How tides are formed
How tides and climate change are connected
Why it should matter to not only people by the ocean but the world
Possible olutions

Untitled: Aug 28, 2020 8:46 AM.webmtides_moon_phases_graphing_atlantic_city_nj.pdfThis activity will help you see how varying moon phases will affect tides at a specific beach in Atlantic City, NJ . Your focus for this should be understanding how tides rise and fall in connection to the moon. This can be completed virtually by opening the document with Kami and using the tools available to complete your graph.

In addition to whatever you decide to submit from the activity, post a brief (2-5 sentences) summary of how moon phases, eclipses, and tides are connected in our Solar System Discussion Board on Padlet so we can continue to track how our thinking has continued to change and grow as we learn more!
