0–3 · own start: “Does it say what YOU meant? Keep it, or change a bit.” Welcome a chosen topic, one useful event/detail and private response.
3–8 · rich source / language: Read back the child actual text first. Child can read eligible portions; adult reads unknown words with help recorded. Return to a source detail only when needed, not a full source-status form.
8–12 · print and word attention: Try one clearer noun group, verb group, topic word, sentence boundary or connection. Model “a boat” → “the long boat” only when that detail serves this text; more words do not automatically improve it. Use one locally selected practice card for today, except held turns use their private eligible component. Blend then reread a useful phrase and check meaning; model correction only after a first reading. Unknown code is adult-read or taught separately. A child’s own attempted spelling is not silently corrected into independent evidence.
12–22 · make / choose: Keep or revise one useful part and explain the intention. If a willing listener actually responds, record their exact attributed comment and child choice; listener feedback is optional and no reply is invented.
22–25 · read back / useful next step: Actual reread/edit or justified keep choice; independent reading/spelling/handwriting only if genuinely observed. Keep one brief exact phrase/picture note plus help if needed. Ask “What would help next?” Invite a child question. No mandatory sharing, perfect page, fixed amount or whole-class component checklist.
