Inquiry Taster
You can download the document above for the comprehensive inquiry and context but below is a taster of what it offers.
Sounds heard when walking:
- Take a sound walk in the local environment. Record the sounds heard while walking and annotate them, e.g an unknown person unwrapping a pie from a dairy, traffic noise of engines idling at the traffic lights, a large black dog growling at another dog, jandals flapping on tarmac, children talking in the walking school bus, a high school student shouting to a friend.
- Find a safe place on the walk to school and pause and listen to all the sounds in the local environment for 20 minutes. Represent the soundscape by drawing lines and shapes on a page.
