Abstract	There are arguably advantages to adopting a cross-curricular approach to planning, teaching and learning. This approach often works well for incorporating scientific skills and the wider perspectives of geography, technology and maths. It can help children to develop and consolidate their understanding through practical application and gives them the opportunity to discuss what they have discovered and observed and to talk through their ideas and thoughts. In this article, the author shares the curiosity, shared thinking, learning and enjoyment her class found through a brief weather study prior to the COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020. The children's interest continued at home and opened up wider learning paths. Thinking about the weather gives an opportunity to hook children into developing and widening their understanding of the environment and, in doing so, builds the foundations for an understanding of climate change and a chance for humanity to find solutions.
