Goal/codes: Explain a useful observation sequence to a willing person and use actual response if it occurs; SFI05, SFI01; SFI02 only actual direct safe observation.
Prepare: One broad three-stage aid; willing listener optional. No audience, real enactment or touch required.
-
Purpose · 3 min. “What would help a helper notice your chosen part?” Child chooses the feature and a short invitation: before, one gentle press if welcomed, let go, notice.
-
Tell · 4 min. Child dictates, signs, points or uses AAC to communicate their original words. Include available part and moment, not a demanded result. Teacher separates child choices from adult wording/support.
-
Listen or model · 7 min. A willing adult follows the child’s safe observation direction only if available; actual action/reading is named. Otherwise adult uses a paper listener labelled MODEL or reads the plan. No invented participation/result.
-
Respond · 5 min. “What worked? What would you change?” Optional change or unchanged direction is acceptable. A helper report stays attributed; child’s direct access remains separate.
-
Keep · 4 min. Child chooses private sequence, broad display or willing sharing. It is useful communication; neat drawing/word count is not Science evidence by itself.
-
Next · 2 min. Keep exact response/support only as needed. Hold AM facts until tomorrow’s first response; no practice copying.
Teacher keeps: one useful shared source/stage phrase or sketch, relevant individual idea/response and support; actual direct/report/model status. Add missing facts only if needed for the claim. Do not fabricate a prior prediction, physical trial or willing audience.
