200 Key Stage 1 and 2 pupils from seven schools across Kent took part on Friday 27th March 2009 in the Weather Watch Online Music Concert. During the project many of the pupils used ICT to:

• Listen to different types of weather music
• Record and review their own music
• Add different instrumental layers to their compositions
• Perform their music live on line
• Publish their music on the internet for others to play and download
