Goal: show and describe between using two reference objects; recognise how moving one can change the claim. Proposed code: AC9MFSP02. Prepare: paper star, book, cup, Card 107 and practice map.
Retrieve · 3 min. Ask child to show cup beside mat and name the mat as reference.
Model · 4 min. Arrange star–book–cup across paper. Say “The book is between the star and cup.” Point to both references.
Guide · 5 min. Children place a different large marker between two named paper symbols, checking its position with a finger path.
Independent try · 7 min. Child arranges three shuffled objects, gives a true between sentence and directs another person to locate the middle item.
Change · 4 min. Move the cup to the left of star; ask whether the original between sentence remains true. Child checks, rather than guesses from the word alone.
Exit · 2 min. Expect a sentence naming both objects around the middle. Use a tactile line with three large positions if needed.
