Goal/codes: choose an own action idea and explore connected/gently arriving qualities; proposed partial AC9ADAFD01 / AC9ADAFC01. Prepare: two-quality key, or exact/no-print route.
- Welcome · 3 min. Ask “What feels comfortable today?” Offer a tiny picture reveal, puppet ending, dance alone or own purpose. Check local space/support/stop and a short chosen warm-up, or choose director/drawing route.
- Try · 4 min. Before looking at marks, invite one comfortable child-chosen action: a small hand path is an example only if suitable. Try FLOW—“keep it connected”—then PLACE—“gently arrive”. No exact body part/form/range/speed or forced stillness. Child may direct a willing adult who actually moves, or plan silently; name what happened.
- Explore · 5 min. Ask “Which would you like to keep?” The child may invent another way, keep both or neither. Only now show the broad FLOW/PLACE reminders and give the same action idea a simple A key. A mark is not a body instruction.
- Make · 7 min. Child makes a tiny dance or plan for their chosen purpose using the action/qualities they want. Try once if wanted; then keep/change/stop. A one-action private dance is enough. A different action idea can be valid; record it accurately.
- Notice · 4 min. Ask “What did you choose?” Privately note the action key, own decision and actual maker/route/help/date. Only actual movement supports a physical quality observation; drawing supports the plan.
- Close · 2 min. Offer rest/cool-down in the locally agreed comfortable route. Save only what is available, or stop without saving.
Next teaching: If qualities are unclear, compare one comfortable action in two ways later; if secure, choose how it begins.
