Learner choices

Target: check whether representations preserve the selected source; partial AC9TDIFK02. Ready: child's guide/key, reader note, optional real willing reader.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Can someone use your guide to find the represented thing?” Child can keep it private or ask an adult. Asking is not consent; the reader can decline.
  2. Model · 4 min. Adult reads CLOTH in model A and checks its row, key and MODEL TIME A. “The supplied record says MIDDLE.” This is not proof of today's real location.
  3. Together · 5 min. Consider what makes a guide useful: item labels, a matching key, clear positions and a source label. Choose one feature to inspect without deciding the child's repair.
  4. Child task · 7 min. Child offers their guide to a willing reader, or compares it privately with the source. Record an actual read-back only if given. Child chooses a repair, a decision to keep it, or a later try. Practice roleplay is labelled practice.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save first comparison before feedback. Distinguish “we planned to ask” from “this reader actually said”. Leave reader response NONE when none occurs.
  6. Close · 2 min. The child chooses where to keep their guide. A reader's error is information for a repair, not a verdict on the maker.
