For inquiry we are learning about the moon and tide. For homework we had to answer a question which was How dose the tide effect your life by the bay? These are my two paragraphs about it.
From what we found out about the tides the New moon and the Full moon were the most effected because the bulge was at its biggest. The largest tide was 2.55 metres high. The lowest tide was 0.3 metres. When it was the highest tide the moon phase was Waining Gibbous. When it was the lowest tide the moon phase was Waining Crescent. I think the highest tide was at Waining Gibbous because of the Gravitational Pull. I think the lowest tide was at Waining Gibbous because it was close to a New moon and the New moon is lined up with the sun and earth.
Many People rely on the tides. Fishermen rely on the tides to feed their family and to get money. Fishermen go out when it is low tide to catch bait and crabs. They catch fish at high tide because that is when the fish come out to find food. Sea creatures on the tide to find food and to make homes to live in.
