Fresh learner source: release deliberately at its own session.
Complete source: “Invent a picture magazine about a hat with a room inside it. What would you put on the cover? What would you show inside? You may make one wanted part first, make a different kind of work, leave a plan, or pass.”
Supplied facts: imagined hat; imagined room inside that hat; a proposed cover and inside page. No occupant, hat shape, room contents, viewpoint, order beyond page roles, colour, words, purpose, real audience or outcome is supplied. Neither a real hat nor a room model is needed. Literal blank equivalent: “Cover: broad empty area. Inside: broad empty area.” A board with two described broad empty areas is enough.
First neutral prompt: “What is your first choice?” Follow only that direction. Optional after capture: “Keep it, change a part, another page, or later?” Child may supply a reason; don't require one. Exact Q facts and any model stay out of ordinary teaching/home/supplement/aids 1–6.
Release and capture common to all six
Check prior access; if already known, name it known, not unfamiliar. Read the entire source here or its complete literal equivalent without adding an image, expected position, symbol meaning, emotion, helpful answer or worked example. Then offer one short part at a time. Broad blank paper/board, familiar locally suitable tools, established communication and agreeing adult fabrication are available. No printout, fold, scissors, binding, camera, writing, sensory task, physical handling, public audience or time limit is required.
Receive the child's first own contribution before a model, hints or later teaching. Capture source/version/access, exact own intention if supplied, first visible marks/positions or unmade directions, actual work/plan/pass status, adult physical operations and exact support. Wanted stop/help/another sitting is available. Offer a second part, own revision or reason as optional after first capture. Later help/modelled response is separately recorded, never replacing the first.
The source is an open invented creative brief, not a factual event or a pictured child result. All supplied facts are immediately disclosed; nothing is staged or concealed. Blank areas contain no additional facts. No single composition, word, response or two-page completion is correct. An own different theme is valuable creative work; document its actual features while the requested brief component remains unelicited. No sharing or E01 evidence follows merely from responding to a brief.
