This study developed three units of inquiry-based learning materials. Each unit covers all the four skills and consists of introduction, main lesson and reinforcement tasks ranging from 28 to 32 tasks. The input was in the form of spoken and written texts, vocabulary list and grammar explanation. The students are encouraged to do discussion and involve in active investigation to solve and do tasks.

Based on the results of materials evaluation, the content, language, presentation and graphic of the developed materials are considered appropriate.
