This inquiry resource package on sound for ELKP is designed to assist teachers in planning for an inquiry-based learning opportunity. This resource outline is to be sublimated with learning objects that your own class has presented in their interest of sound: where does sound come from, how can we make different kinds of sound? The time required and the direction of the inquiry-based learning activity will depend on the time that you can allocate to the learning activity, students prior knowledge, skill, and level of interest.
