We got on two buses at 8:00 and we went to Odiron and me and my classmates all split of into the water looking for anything and showing all the adults. At 11:00 we had to cheeck in with one of our teachers, to make sure none of us were missing after that some of us ate our lunches while others continue to search the tide pools. After a long day we all got changed and headed back on the buses got mad causes kids were in their seat but they sucked it up and sat down to go to the ice cream place to eat ice cream then bus one had to leave first but they got to take their ice cream. After they were done they sat quietly and head back to Hopkinton middle high school to from there go home.

The sun and the moon both pull the earth from gravity, although the moon has a stronger pull towards the earth because it’s closer. This causes the water to pull out towards the moon, even in the opposite direction.On the other side of the world where no water is pulled but away this creates low tide same as the opposite side. The gravity from the earth pulls the moon closer to earth (not closer but it just keeps the moon in orbit of the earth) but as the earth has its own gravitational pull so does the moon, except the moon is pulling the earth's water creating a bulge wherever area the moon is closest to. But this also creates a force that presses down on the earth, creating another bulge on the opposite side of the first bulge. Now the tides rise and fall twice a day, so where is the second tide ? The second tide is when the earth rotates and the two bodies of water being constantly pulled by the moon actually move a little. This causes the earth to look like an OVAL

Dry Zone The dry zone is a zone where water can NOT reach. This area has picnic tables, a sidewalk, and a playground. Black zone The black zone is the second zone if you don’t count the dry zone. The black zone are rocks and rocks and rocks stacked up on eachother, even there is nothing on the rocks to the nacked eye there are actually tiny particles on the rocks called cyanobacteria. This zone is also covered in snails, they live on the rocks or cracks of the rocks. White zone The white zone is rocks covered in barnacles that float around and latch on to the rocks with their heads and spend their entire lives on. You can also find a lot of snails in this zone as well. The white zone is the second zone from the top meaning it gets somewhat a little bit of water. This zone is also covered in snails. Brown zone The brown zone is the forth zone from land but second from the ocean. This zone has rocks that are covered in brown-ish, green-ish plants. These two plants are called the knotted rock and the Rock weed. These two plants look so similar that you might have to take more than a second look unless you know the trick. The difference between the knotted rock and the rock weed is that a knotted rock has pointy tips at the end of it, a rock weed is a little rounder at the tip. Red zone The red zone is the last zone until the ocean, this zine is covered in a plant called Irish moss. Irish moss is a red color mixed with a rusted red. This plant helps cover prey from predators. This zone doesn't have as many snails as the first two

When I first arrived in odiron I saw kids playing on the playground, and a lot of grass. After I put down my stuff at a picnic table I headed north east down the slipper rocks that were covered in snails. So many snails everywhere I looked on the blackzone and even the whitezone. As I went to the brown zone the seacond zone closest zone to the ocean, I saw a lot of sea weed that was actually two differenet kinds of sea weed that looked very simular to each other but the only difference is that the tip of one the knotted rock has apointy tip and the rock weed has a rounded tip.

WHERE is there the most variety, and WHY do you think this is?
