## Title

Quiet puppet theatre

## Purpose

Keep a useful small guide from a playful private paper job, in about 5–12 flexible minutes. Stopping is fine.

## Complete source

Fictional paper scene: Quiet puppet theatre. Columns A to D run left to right; rows 1 to 3 run top to bottom. The 4 by 3 grid has equal cells. One move reaches one neighbouring cell, with no diagonals. Up/down refer to this page’s top/bottom, not a person’s facing direction. Start D3; target B1. Every cell inside the grid is open. The proposed instruction is 2 cells up, then 2 cells left. This is supplied fiction, not an observed journey or real-world distance.

## Invitation

Make a complete route a reader could follow. Name its start, target, directions and a checking reason. A different legal route is welcome.

## First offer steps

- Offer the complete named home source, not an assumed classroom source. Read/hear all supplied labels together.

- Receive the learner’s first route/model and checking idea without showing adult possibilities.

- Choose paper, large objects, speech/sign/AAC or exact adult scribing. No printer or screen is required.

- Use the source to replay or compare the idea. Ask one checking question and keep the child’s exact response.

## Adult teaching after own

The proposed recorded positions are D3, D2, D1, C1, B1; final B1. It makes 4 one-cell moves, with 5 recorded positions including its start. It is legal and reaches the target.

## Adult guided later source

Fictional paper scene: Quiet puppet theatre — separate later try. Columns A to D run left to right; rows 1 to 4 run top to bottom. The 4 by 4 grid has equal cells. One move reaches one neighbouring cell, with no diagonals. Up/down refer to this page’s top/bottom, not a person’s facing direction. Start A4; target C1. Every cell inside the grid is open. The proposed instruction is 3 cells up, then 2 cells right. This is supplied fiction, not an observed journey or real-world distance.

## Guided invitation

Make a complete route a reader could follow. Name its start, target, directions and a checking reason. A different legal route is welcome.

## Adult later possibility

The proposed recorded positions are A4, A3, A2, A1, B1, C1; final C1. It makes 5 one-cell moves, with 6 recorded positions including its start. It is legal and reaches the target.

## Individual options

- Try just one position or two quantities before the complete job.

- Enlarge labels, reduce visual clutter, use tactile row/column or place-value labels, or direct someone to move.

- After teaching, use the whole different later source in this named home offer as explicitly named here; this is a new home offer, not an unlabelled classroom example.

## Observe

Look for a supported source-specific route/value explanation. Record mathematical help and leave unseen parts open; enjoyment or finishing is not mastery.

## Local option

With agreement, make a small map of an actual tabletop arrangement or count a permitted safe collection. Date that observation, name its exact unit/labels and revise the full source/model/prompts together. Do not publish a child’s room, address or work. Fiction stays a complete alternative.

## Privacy

Home participation and reader feedback are voluntary. Keep work privately. No purchase, outing, public upload, real stock or actual travel is required.
