Ordinary activities per pair; fresh checks capture each child's first response separately, with neutral supports and no peer answer/model treated as that child's independent evidence. Check resources may be pre-made and answered orally/directed; a shared ordinary kit does not imply shared assessment. Per pair: broad adult-prepared envelope/folder or flat SOURCE pocket; event/marking/plan timeline fold or three flat panels; large EVENT, MARKING, PERSON SAYS, SHARING SOURCE, PLAN, OPEN and FICTION tabs; blank plain marker/bookmark or oral marker; copied source sheets; broad return envelope; scribe. Adults prepare folds/frames; full flat/no-touch/directed equivalents. No tiny cutting, glue, special objects, device/printer/purchase, public display, food/music/ritual performance, actual event attendance, real-property handling or family interview required. Original book/banner shapes are neutral fictional source cues, not cultural symbols. Don't imitate cultural/sacred objects, ceremonies, costume, sounds or designs.
Read exact invented sources A–F. All events, days, people, family relationship, display and requests below are fictional. A dated everyday activity does not by itself establish a significant event or celebration/commemoration. In A the report explicitly names the completed marking; C supplies one person's significance. A ticket, invitation, object or today's marker alone proves neither participation nor universal meaning.
| Source | Exact child-facing words | Known / open |
|---|---|---|
| A · completed event report | “On Story Day Two, the paper group finished its shared story book. On Story Day Three, some visitors looked at a book-page display to celebrate finishing it. This is an invented event report.” | Reported event/marking with fictional dates; not actual school history or everyone's participation. |
| B · dated marking trace | “Story Day Three · book-page display to celebrate the finished story book. The drawing shows an open book and a wide banner. It does not list everyone who was there.” | Trace caption links marking to event; pictured objects don't identify people/families, prove attendance or explain every reason. |
| C · Kemi's particular account | “I am Kemi. Finishing the shared book matters to me because we can read our made-up stories together. I looked at the display on Story Day Three. These are my own words.” | Kemi's significance/own reported participation only. |
| D · Arlo's sharing account | “I am Arlo. I looked at the display with my cousin Niv on Story Day Three. I have not spoken for other families or visitors.” | Arlo reports particular family/other sharing in fiction; not everyone's family or actual learner relationship/participation. |
| E · later label plan | “Story Day Six · I plan a new paper label about the earlier display. A label made now is not a record that a new celebration happened.” | Dated future plan, not completed making, celebration, permission or use. |
| F · paper archive request | “You may make a plain source label for this paper archive. Ask before showing it. Return the copied pages to the broad envelope. This is a request, not a record of use.” | Invented making scope/ask-first/return request; not real permission or actual action. |
Nine original print pairs: event report, dated trace, two source accounts, plan and request, event trace fold, plain marker/pocket, blank actual record, held fresh A, held fresh B. Each has an SVG sibling and exact full reading/tactile/no-print alternatives. Hold fresh content until Days 185/190. Public pages aren't secure exams.
Complete paper project: child chooses broad flat/folded pocket or directed/oral equivalent. Attach A/B and source labels; keep event Story Day Two and reported marking Story Day Three distinct from E's Story Day Six PLAN. Add C's own significance and D's exact sharing account; others OPEN. Child chooses a plain marker carrying one sourced event/marking phrase, not decorative imitation. Review against source, preserve first/revised words, privately explain to willing adult/paper listener or keep kit for owner review; role-play replies labelled MODEL. Today’s observed paper making/action/help is recorded separately from source history. Return copied pages to broad model envelope under F; no actual celebration, family event, reader benefit or real authority supplied.
Actual route ready: educator approves existing completed significant event and authentic marking/source date precision, particular-person account, sharing source/privacy and cultural appropriateness before starting. Child/family may decline silently. Choose only authorised plain source copies/marker, private audience/location/materials and safe return/handover. A school/community source can support bounded others evidence; genuine family-specific source optional and private, missing breadth OPEN. No actual event/place/person/date/account/permission/result pre-filled. Full actual workflow, no compulsory new celebration/commemorative act.
