The Beach

Ever1J da1J the ocean goes up the beach at high tide, and it goes down the beach at low tide

The ocean moves with the wind, too The wind makes waves The ocean

is salt water It's big and strong

The ocean can break rocks and shells into pieces The pieces of rock and shell hit the water and other rocks Then the1J get ver1J little This

is how the ocean makes rocks and shells into sand

Sand and Rocks

What can 1:Jou see in the sand and

on the rocks at the beach?

At low tide the tellin shell hides

under the sand It hides there

because other animals like to eat

it It gets food and water with one

of its siphons

The green flat periwinkle hides in green seaweed Can 1:JOU see it here?

The barnacle lives on rocks Its shell grows onto the rocks, so it doesn't move when there are waves

Some ba rnacles grow on whales!

In RockpoQls

At low tide, the ocean moves down the

beach Then you can find rockpools

Let's look in a rockpool Here's

a crab It gets food with its big, strong claws It eats

barnacles, starfish, and other little

animals It eats plants, too

The starfish can put its stomach out of its mouth! Then it can eat this big clam

Crabs eat starfish, and starfish eat clams This is called a food chain

Near the Beach

ManlJ fish and other little animals

live in the water near the beach

There's lots of food for them there

The prawn eats seaweed and little

animals

The seahorse eats verlJ little fish

It eats verlJ, verlJ little animals and plants called plankton, too

See how this seahorse hides in the seaweed In this green seaweed, the seahorse is green, but in lJellow seaweed, it's lJellow!

Go to page 23 for activities

You can see some amazing animals

in the ocean

Here's a seal The seal lives in the

ocean and on land When it swims

in the ocean, it puts its head out of

the water to get air

The dolphin jumps out of the water, and little fish are scared Thel] swim awal], and then the dolphin can catch them! The dolphin gets air with a blowhole on its head

On sunnl] dal]s, the basking shark swims at the top of the ocean It can eat lots of plankton there Plankton

is its favorite food

+ Go to page 24 for activities

Many birds live near th e beac h

There's lots of food for th em t h e r e

The puffin lives on cliff s When it 's

hungry, it flies down an d swim

under the ocean Then it catchc

its favorite fish!

The pelican can catch lots of fish

in its big bill It opens its bill and the water goes out Then it can eat the fish

A pelican can get

11 liters of water

in its bill!

Oystercatchers don't eat oysters! They eat mussels They open the shells with their bill

laUi,

At the coast near the beach, there are cliffs Some waves hit hills on the coast, and pieces of land break into the ocean This makes cliffs

Sometimes there are holes in the cliffs The ocean hits the holes and

stacks, too

At the coast, the sand moves in the wind Then the sand makes hills called sand dunes

Sand dunes can move

100 meters ina yea r

You can do man-y things at the

beach! You can kitesurf, and the

wind moves -you on the ocean You

can snorkel, too Then -you can see

Don't go awa-y from the people -you know Look for flags - the-y tell -you where and when -you can swim

Have fun at the beach, but remember the ocean plants and animals IZeep the beach clean for plants, animals, and other people
