A Child's Geography-Co-op Day-Hydrosphere Study

"In the hollow of His hand...."





Practicing Longitude and Latitude


Hannah's fist are acting as the moon- pulling the ocean towards it like a magnet-making high tide. (This happens twice a day.)


Paula demonstrating how the moon pulls the water towards itself to create the high tides.



Friday is our co-op day to do activities that coordinate with the chapter we read for the week. This week we read about Oceans, Currents, Gyres, the Coriolis effect, evaporation, gravity and the oceans tides.

We studied this all under the understanding that- "He has measured the waters in the hollows of His hand." Isa 40:12. Each part of our hydrosphere just like every other layer of our earth has been carefully and thoughtfully crafted by our God and Creator. How awesome to think about the intricate detail of each thing He has made!
