# Your own labels and key

Make a pretend picture and choose what its words and signs mean. Use supplied imaginary places or your own made-up idea, not a home address. This picture is not a real map, direction, distance or geography check.

1. Add a blank label and type words, or ask a helper to type the words you choose.

2. Choose a sign or words only. Move it with the labelled buttons; keyboard Enter/Space activates a focused button.

3. Add another label only if useful. You can remove or edit any label.

4. Show your meaning check. Read or hear your pairs of signs/words. Are they what you mean?

5. Ask a willing reader if wanted, or explain privately. The page does not supply a reader reply or a score.

Copy desired work through your usual private process before reloading. This page does not save or send your words; reload begins empty.

## Complete paper or spoken route

Use an existing page or arrange large word cards. Make a space for a pretend picture. Choose a useful job and one or more labels if wanted. Use a shape plus matching words, or just words. Put labels in positions you choose on this invented picture; they are not measured real locations. Put matching sign/word pairs beside it as your key. Point, speak, sign or direct a helper instead of drawing/writing. Change a word, marker or position if its meaning is unclear. A willing reader may interpret it, or explain your intention privately. Keep actual reader words separate from an imagined reply. No minimum label count, finished picture, printer or reader test.

This source-owned local workspace contains no API, tracking, save, auto-score or remote assistant. Keyboard buttons edit/move/remove labels; native accessible HTML confirmation has keep/clear and Escape/Tab focus behaviour. Checking meaning shows the child’s own word/sign pairs, not a correct answer or actual reader trial. A duplicate sign offers a question, not a penalty. It represents an own imaginary plan; it does not verify actual geographical relations or fill K03. Use the separate supplied real-source/model doorway and record an actual child contribution there only if offered. A helper records the child’s choices, not an improved answer. No sensitive address, account, compulsory disclosure or fixed response quota.

Components may be offered across suitable sittings with usual communication/neutral reading and faithful scribing identified. Keep the child’s contribution distinct from an adult’s supplied answer. Response length is not quality; these are original formative components, not a complete folio or Year 2 reporting grade.
