Learner choices

Goal/codes: encounter a supplied work and respond to documented author purpose; proposed partial AC9ADAFD01 / AC9ADAFC01; narrow AC9ADAFE01 only when actual encounter and own response occur. Prepare: actual supplied work, source card, or exact/no-print route.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Offer private tiny making, director-supported actual enactment, drawing or rest. Check today's action/comfort/stop. The child can reject the supplied purpose.
  2. Try · 4 min. Before score discussion, offer one short child-chosen FLOW/PLACE trial, or direct a willing adult who actually moves; a silent route remains a plan. Nobody must copy a human/body form.
  3. Explore · 5 min. Encounter the actual supplied Little Shape Reveal graphic score or its exact read/raised version: FLOW/PLACE/FLOW then FINISH, same action idea A. Say “SubjectNest made this with a computer to help us try two qualities in a tiny dance.” Ask “What do you notice or want to try?” No filmed dancer or successful reveal is claimed.
  4. Make · 7 min. Child chooses the source purpose, dance alone or an own idea and invents/keeps/changes/rejects a tiny phrase. Try actual comfortable movement if wanted, or use another route. Keep/change/stop; a source account is not the child's own response.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Privately record exact source/version, actual encounter route/date/observer/help and own response or not yet observed. Narrow FE01 opportunity only; varied actual makers/people/community contexts still need appropriate additional sources. Record any enactment separately.
  6. Close · 2 min. Rest and keep only available source-response/work notes. No cultural meaning or achieved effect is guessed.

Next teaching: If purpose and effect mix, say “That was the intention; an actual viewer response is still unknown.”
