The rocky shore provides us with a fantastic opportunity to explore coastal habitats up close.

What is the rocky shore? The rocky shore is where the land meets the sea. It is home to thousands of creatures that live in extreme conditions.

A rocky shore is split into four zones: Splash Zone or ‘Lichen Zone’ (0% seawater cover)Upper Shore or ‘Black Tar Lichen Zone’ (20% seawater cover)Middle Shore or ‘Barnacle Grey Zone’ (20 - 80% seawater cover)Lower Shore or ‘Seaweed Brown Zone’ (80 - 100% seawater cover)

These zones are different sizes in every part of the UK depending on a locations tidal range.

Learning outcomesIdentify the structure and function of living organisms on the rocky shore. Recognise how organisms affect, and are affected by, their environment, including the accumulation of toxic materials.

task one:

Use the fact sheet to find out about the different plants and animals that live on the UK coastline.

Find out as many facts as you can and make your own rocky shore fact sheet.

Share the facts: Never underestimate the power of your voice. Use your new found facts to send waves of ocean optimism to your friends and family. If you are using social media don’t forget to use the #oceanschool tag so we can see what you’ve been upto.

A rocky shore is an extreme habitat to live in. Investigate the types of plants and animals that are able to live in the different zones found on a rocky shore. If you are feeling creative why not make a diagram showing the different zones and the different organisms which live within these zones.

Share your creations on social media and remember to tag us using the #oceanschool tag.

task two:

tides: The rocky shore line changes dramatically during the day because of the tides. Tides are the rise and fall of the sea level. The gravitational pull of the sun and the moon causes tides to rise and fall. There are two high tides and two low tides each day.

research task: Can you find out why we have two tides a day? Write a short paragraph explaining your findings. If you would like to share your findings on social media make sure to use the #oceanschool tag.
