QUESTIONS FOR KIDS [03]
from John Canu inspired by the comics
“TIME AND TIDE”
updated 980630

Math is important !
Viking captain Hagar is saying: “Okay, who was in charge of figuring out when low tide would occur?!”
What the fish know
The first little boy asks: “Do the fish know about tides going out, Tiger?” — The second boy, whose name is Tiger, answers: “A lot more than we do.”

Well, I am not sure about the fish, but some people certainly know a lot more about the tides than I do. I don't know how to figure out when low tide will occur in any given place. But I do know a few things and I help my students to discover them and, with me, to try and find out some of the things I don't yet know.

Do you know what causes the tides? how many tides there are every day? what causes tides to be higher in certain places or at certain times?

Click here if you can answer any of these questions or if you want to ask more questions for the kids or for me to try and answer.
