Day 116 · Make your own two-page show

“Two pages. Your idea. Which one first?”

Set up

Make a small useful original show rather than copy a model as wholly own. Offer C10's pretend weather story as a taught example, not weather data. Broad cards or locally approved Choice Show; 20–25 minutes across comfortable pieces.

Use scrap paper and three broad cards, or a familiar locally approved device. A short chosen part is enough. A wanted helper reads or constructs exactly as directed; name who chooses and who operates.

Run the session

1. Child selects a fictional or nonpersonal useful purpose, with “your own” and pass available.

2. Child chooses two destination meanings and pictures/words; helpers attribute supplied primitives and exact construction.

3. Make START with two keyed choices.

4. Author both links and Back behaviour.

5. Actually try one route, if wanted; retain planned or unknown status where appropriate.

6. Invite optional recognition of one actual own contribution without requiring name, life story or public sharing.

Choose a route

• 116a: Create two full words pages, with optional original keyed button patterns, Apply links and try a child-selected route.

• 116b: Draw or direct three broad paper pages with keyed choices and complete rule strips; actually turn one if wanted.

• 116c: Give a wanted helper an audio-free signed/spoken/AAC instruction for each page and approve the full read-back; work may stay privately described. A helper's clicks alone are not independent child operation.

Notice and next help

Own chosen content, actual form, performer and status. If all ideas were adult-selected, offer a new neutral purpose choice later; don't relabel a copied model as own.
