Rocky Shore Writing


Walt: we are learning to write a report.


The rocky shore is an intertidal habitat that's around the coast of New zealand.
It has many different zones, including the intertidal one.
The rocky shores are biologically rich environments and also are a useful natural laboratory for studying.


I learned that the Supratidal zone is directly above the high tide mark. It apparently only gets covered by water by storms or king tides. But it apparently can be moistened by sprays of the breaking waves, which is known for the splash zone.
Plants and animals actually live in this zone, are exposed
To varying temperatures from high from the sun causing to dry out.
To cold temperatures from the tide.


 I found out that the Intertidal/ Littoral zone is the sea bed between the highest and lowest limits of the tide.The Intertidal zone requires plants and animals so it could adjust to extreme changes. 
I also found out that at times they are completely submerged in cold salt water and faces of heat from the hot sun.
The Intertidal zone is divided into 3 zones. 
The high tide zone, middle tide zone and low tide zone.
This zone also contains tidal pools. Pools with rocks that maintain water throughout the cycles.

Subtidal/ Sublittoral zone is the area directly below the Intertidal zone. Its beneath the low tide mark.
I learnt that its permanently covered in water. And this is zone is much more stable then the Intertidal zone.

The rocky shore is an area on the coast of New zealand.And it’s an intertidal habitat.The rocky shore has many different zones, Intertidal zone, Subtidal zone and the Supratidal zone.The rocky shore is an interesting place to study, there's so much different things to learn! Like the zones, animals and more!



Task description.
Mr. Goodwin made us do report writing for the first ever time. We had to write about the rocky shore.
We mostly just wrote about the zones.
