Tides and Everyday Life Answer Key

This scenario-based worksheet emphasizes how tides influence daily human activities. Students read four realistic situations-such as visiting the beach, fishing, shipping, and exploring coastal pools-and explain in 2-3 sentences how tide timing would affect each one. A final reflection encourages them to describe one personal or local activity influenced by tides. The exercise builds awareness of the connection between science and daily decision-making while reinforcing practical reasoning and writing skills.
