Embedding ICT across the curriculum
Kent Weather Watch 2008-9
A project for primary and secondary pupils around the UK and the World
Following the success of Kent Weather Watch we are pleased to announce that the project will be continued to July 2009. Managed by a Team of county Leading ICT Teachers and Geography AST’s schools participating in the project will have the opportunity over the coming months to:
- Use ICT to creatively share information about the weather in their local area with schools in and outside the United Kingdom
- Compare and contrast the climate in different locations around the world
- Investigate how changes in the weather can affect the everyday lives of all living things

Weather Watch Special Events Day
The Project Team plan again to organise Special Events days throughout 2009 to show how ICT can be embedded across the curriculum. The first of these days will be a repeat of the very successful “Operation Storm Warning” in February 2008.
