Weather Kit

Posted on Jan 4, 2008 in Interactive Whiteboards, Resources | 0 comments

A quick post from the ASE conference to take advantage of the free internet in my hotel room.

I saw quite a lot of “interactive resources” today, but one resource I really liked was the Interactive Weather Presenting Kit from the Met Office.

It’s not online, you need the CD-ROM. But you can apply for your own copy of the CD via the Met Office website.

This highly package is designed to consolidate weather and climate throughout Key Stages 2-4, and provides an ideal opportunity for the use of ICT in Geography. and Science. It uses Microsoft PowerPoint and comes with a range of master slides, four weather symbols sets, an image library and links to current weather data.

Just visit http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/education/resources/interactive_kit.html and fill in the form to get your own copy sent to you.
