Complete source
Invented account: Sam uses an offline finder on a laptop to display a named sketch card, then an offline viewer on that laptop to enlarge the sketch. Keyboard/screen are physical; the two software tools serve different jobs. No internet search occurs.
Day

Where to begin
Begin with one neutrally described item/key and wanted access if choices are unfamiliar. Prior sessions are options, not guaranteed mastery; add items or a real system turn only where suitable.
Adult reasoning for the different source
The actual player/speaker can produce sound where working; the paper key represents a meaning, a different job.
A different complete source
Invented account: Kim chooses an approved original cue in an offline sound player; a speaker produces it. A separate paper key links that cue label to a drum drawing. The paper key plays no sound.
Materials
Broad scrap paper/cards and thick pencil or wanted faithful helper. Adult checks safe materials and approved device access. No small loose parts, cutting, food, purchase, printer, photo, account or outdoor visit required.
Next teaching
Begin with one locally familiar system and clear job. If the child only watched, record that participation and invite a supported turn later; do not infer independent use.
Notice
A genuine familiar encounter connects a purpose, chosen action and outcome where observed; a second distinct encounter is optional.
Parent offer
Read the complete source above and offer the short child start. One card or one wanted direction is enough. Let the child choose their own job/key before using the worked reasoning. Use broad paper/drawing/usual communication or a faithful helper; devices are optional. If a real tool is used, name who chose and who operated, and keep only the result actually observed. Private/pass/rest/return are available. Keep a chosen own record if wanted, without identifiers or claims of progress from one task.

Words
Choose between the reviewed finder and an approved offline picture viewer where available. Use one for its purpose; compare an actual second encounter only if wanted.

Target
A genuine familiar encounter connects a purpose, chosen action and outcome where observed; a second distinct encounter is optional.
Words
Place paper FIND and LOOK cards beside complete model accounts. Direct a pretend selected versus enlarged picture; name paper jobs without software-use claims.

Words
Use a wanted accessible actual control or direct an adult. Choose a purpose before input and describe the result. A silent picture route replaces unwanted sound.
Teaching steps
-
Title
Choose a useful start
Words
Pick a tool that helps your job. Offer one broad item and an explicit key first if needed. Invite an own idea before showing the adult model. Read the complete original fictional source in wanted short chunks. No independent reading, exact counting, speech, colour discrimination or mouse skill is required.

Title
Model one meaningful link
Words
Complete source: Invented account: Sam uses an offline finder on a laptop to display a named sketch card, then an offline viewer on that laptop to enlarge the sketch. Keyboard/screen are physical; the two software tools serve different jobs. No internet search occurs. Adult worked reasoning after the child’s first idea: Finding an entry and inspecting its picture are different software purposes even with shared hardware. Show the intended item, representation, key or system job. Keep this ordinary model separate from every held source and any actual learner observation.

Title
Use a different whole source together
Words
Complete different guided source: Invented account: Kim chooses an approved original cue in an offline sound player; a speaker produces it. A separate paper key links that cue label to a drum drawing. The paper key plays no sound. Invite a choice/explanation before feedback. Adult worked reasoning: The actual player/speaker can produce sound where working; the paper key represents a meaning, a different job. A drawing, direction, phrase or usual-communication choice can show the target. If unfamiliar, model one step and invite a wanted new attempt.
-
Title
Choose a route with the same purpose
Words
Use one of the three complete routes below and switch whenever useful. A helper handles locally safe materials/equipment exactly as directed and reads neutrally. Record content help and actual operator. Paper and observation remain participation without becoming running software or independent child operation.
-
Title
Make or direct an own contribution
Words
Child start: Pick a tool that helps your job. Choose a harmless collection or use the full source. Keep actual own words/drawing/direction before feedback, with every own field initially blank. One entry or selected prompt may be enough. Rest, pass, private work and return are available; no public audience or identifiers are required.

Title
Notice and respond with teaching
Words
Specific observation target: A genuine familiar encounter connects a purpose, chosen action and outcome where observed; a second distinct encounter is optional. Specific next teaching: Begin with one locally familiar system and clear job. If the child only watched, record that participation and invite a supported turn later; do not infer independent use. Record source/date/first-or-revised contribution and actual help where appropriate. These are original formative observations, not QCAA bands, automatic learning gains or an annual certificate. Extra material is optional.
Time
Unpiloted flexible 15–25 minute offer, in short pieces. A 3–8 minute child start can be today’s whole task; no timer/speed criterion.
