Secret-caption repairYear 2 Maths · T2 W13–14 · Home / H04

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

Whole first source

Fictional paper scene: Secret-caption repair. 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 B4; target D2. Closed cells: C4. Never enter or pass through them. The proposed instruction is 2 cells right, then 2 cells up. This is supplied fiction, not an observed journey or real-world distance.

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

A short first offer

  1. Offer the complete named home source, not an assumed classroom source. Read/hear all supplied labels together.
  2. Receive the learner’s first route/model and checking idea without showing adult possibilities.
  3. Choose paper, large objects, speech/sign/AAC or exact adult scribing. No printer or screen is required.
  4. Use the source to replay or compare the idea. Ask one checking question and keep the child’s exact response.
For the adult · after the first own try

The proposed recorded positions are B4, C4, D4, D3, D2; final D2. It makes 4 one-cell moves, with 5 recorded positions including its start. This geometric trace is not a legal journey: stop before a closed cell. A legal replacement must avoid it at every step. One legal replacement is 2 cells up, then 2 cells right; positions B4, B3, B2, C2, D2. Every listed position is inside the grid and open, and the final position is the target. Replay all entered positions to check the replacement; this is a proposed paper route, not an observed real journey.

Complete different later source

Fictional paper scene: Secret-caption repair — 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 A3; target D1. Closed cells: B3. Never enter or pass through them. The proposed instruction is 3 cells right, then 2 cells up. This is supplied fiction, not an observed journey or real-world distance.

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

The proposed recorded positions are A3, B3, C3, D3, D2, D1; final D1. It makes 5 one-cell moves, with 6 recorded positions including its start. This geometric trace is not a legal journey: stop before a closed cell. A legal replacement must avoid it at every step. One legal replacement is 2 cells up, then 3 cells right; positions A3, A2, A1, B1, C1, D1. Every listed position is inside the grid and open, and the final position is the target. Replay all entered positions to check the replacement; this is a proposed paper route, not an observed real journey.

Make it work for you

  1. Try just one position or two quantities before the complete job.
  2. Enlarge labels, reduce visual clutter, use tactile row/column or place-value labels, or direct someone to move.
  3. 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.

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

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.

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