Learning job: Choose a display job and a first idea; do not assume an earlier product.

Have ready: Whole blank paper and usual communication. A child can use an invented mark or describe a display without making it.

Say to the child: Choose one thing you want to show. Where would you look for it? Your idea can stay private.

  1. Invite a wanted job: show an invented creature, make a pretend shop label, or keep a private picture where you can find it. Ask what the display would help somebody do.
  2. Save the first own idea before a picture model. Ask which part shows the chosen mark and where somebody would look.
  3. Offer one route below. Keep the child’s purpose, including choosing not to show anything publicly.
  4. After capture, read C01/C02: Pia wants one pretend moon picture visible on her table; Uli wants a quiet private choice card. Each has a different job.
  5. Ask how a proposed face or position serves the own purpose. “I like it” is a preference; it need not claim a tested result.
  6. Keep the purpose and a first feature. If only “a display” is offered, use a separate adult cloud-picture example to connect a face with a viewer action, then return to own work.

Choose one route:

Look for / next teaching: An own purpose linked to a proposed feature. Teach feature→viewer action with a different invented picture if the connection is missing.

More choices: C01/C02, H01, X01. Keep models after the first idea.

Read together:

Imagine a picture of a creature you invented. You want to find it on your table. Would it lie flat, stand, or be something else? Tell or show your first idea. We’ll keep your words before looking at another design. A drawing is a plan until somebody makes it.
