Cape Forchu

The Impact and Importance of Cape Forchu

Activity # 19

Starry Night


Objectives:
  • To enable students to further develop their observation skills
  • To enable students to further refine their comparison and contrasting skills
  • To enable students to further develop their record/data keeping skills
  • To enable students to better understand the correlation between the moon and the tides
Procedure: 
  • Students use Starry Night software to familiarize themselves with lunar schedules
  • Students  record over a specified period of time(e.g. one month or more)  high  and/or low tides and their attendant water lines.  At the same time, students are recording the dates of the phases of the moon, identifying full, new, crescent, etc.. 
  • Students have the option of physically measuring the tide conditions and noting the lunar changes or they may use information from newspapers or the Internet.
  • Students also have the option of using  tide times and water lines at various locations along the shoreline
  • Students then correlate the tide and lunar information using a spreadsheet and/or database.
 Materials/Resources: 
  • Starry Night Software
  • Word Processor
  • Database
  • Spreadsheet
  • Notebooks
  • Internet
  • Local/regional/national/international newspapers
Ongoing Assessment:
  • File data in Research section of Portfolio or on disk
  • Journal 
  • Teacher reviews the information and offers suggestions or provides assistance, as needed
