# Little forms, your tabletop world

**Foundation / Queensland Prep · Visual Arts · Term 3 Weeks 21–22 · Days 101–110 · 10 × 25 minutes · 0.1.0-draft · 30 September 2026**

Press, reshape and arrange two or three broad soft forms. Make a tiny imagined landscape, a resting place for your eyes, a funny scene, or an abstract sculpture you enjoy. Children choose form, space, meaning, where to begin looking and whether to keep their art privately or request a quiet desk display. They can change their mind. No public sharing, touching, standing, writing, neatness or realism is required.

This is a new 3D process after [paper crossings and maker cards](../../term-2/weeks-19-20/README.md). Integrated [Week 21](../../../term-3/week-21-shapes-we-find-and-make.md) notices shapes in an invented room picture; here we explore forms that take up space and a child's own art meaning. Integrated [Week 22](../../../term-3/week-22-find-our-way.md) uses position/directions; here we arrange a tabletop artwork from an agreed viewpoint. Our looking sequence is not travel, a safety route or a replacement for mathematics, English or HPE evidence.

## Start with one small piece

1. [Materials, preparation and access](MATERIALS.md): **only an already locally approved familiar compound**, with the adult checking this actual product/setup. No recipes or required purchases. Paper/directing routes are complete and their actual status is recorded.
2. [Ten daily scripts](LESSONS.md), [30 same-goal response routes and ten optional home bridges](LEARNER-CARDS.md), [20 worked choice examples](PRACTICE-SWAPS.md). Keep check-day models until after first capture.
3. [Eight original illustrated A4 pairs and exact alternatives](print/TEXT-ALTERNATIVES.md). Print only useful pages. Searchable PDFs are not tagged; linear text is the accessible reading copy. The diagrams are 2D originals representing possible unmade forms.
4. Optional [offline space/view planner](digital/README.md) supports one arrangement decision before actual making. No device is needed.
5. Held [fresh checks AC/AD](STUDENT-CHECKS.md) on Days 105/110; [separate teacher key](teacher/KEY-AND-NEXT.md). Components can continue later without time pressure.

## What is ready, and what still needs people

[Curriculum crosswalk](CURRICULUM-CROSSWALK.md) · [source/rights](SOURCE-AND-RIGHTS.md) · [actual encounter/audience gate](AUTHENTIC-SOURCE-SLOT.md) · [source pins](source-snapshot.json) · [fetch receipts](source-fetch-receipts.json) · [author desk critique](RUN-THROUGH.md) · [SHA manifest](manifest.json).

Default `python3 verify_pack.py` and `node digital/qa_browser.cjs` are read-only audits. They inspect source mappings, held checks, actual A4 text/geometry, deterministic regeneration, rejection probes and browser behaviour. They do not establish learning gains, compound suitability, physical success or a child/classroom trial. School safety/access/privacy review, educator/child/family feedback, actual dated making and any willing audience remain human gates.
