E prediction must be retained BEFORE Stage 2 disclosure. Read the same literal text in that order; source sheets require covering the outcome panel or use of separate Stage 1. F discloses every literal fact, including after-spans; only computed answers/interpretation/key are withheld.

fresh-e · Fresh E · predict, then reveal

Stage 1: before and planned action

Known cotton cloth lies flat on a table. Its recorded left-to-right span is 4 equal paper units. A fictional adult plans to gather it loosely into a mound. No outcome is disclosed yet. This is an invented source, not a real observation. Predict and keep your reason BEFORE the lower outcome part is uncovered.

Prediction / source of idea / support

Staff: cover the entire lower panel before showing this sheet, or use the separate literal Stage 1 first.

Stage 2: reveal only after capture

The fictional adult gathers the same known cotton cloth loosely into a mound. Its recorded left-to-right span is 2 equal paper units. Then the adult releases it and actively arranges it flat on the table; the recorded span is 4 units. These are invented illustration/record values, not required real results. The adult’s arranging is an action; release alone is not shown to return it flat.

After source release

Name material/action/form/source. Compare the kept prediction. Ask a safe further question. No worked answer here.

Complete literal source

Invented Record A: known clean cloth, initially flat, left-to-right tabletop span 9 equal paper units. A fictional adult gives one half-turn twist. The recorded after-span is 3 units. Invented Record B: known smooth card, initially flat, span 7 equal units. A fictional adult gently curves it. The recorded after-span is 4 units. The same unit is stated. Claim to consider: Cloth is always better at changing shape than card.

My supported comparison

All source facts, including after-spans, are available; computed changes and key stay separate.

My clearer safe plan / unknown

What comparison can these invented records support? What prevents the always claim? Choose a question and make a clearer safe plan: name what changes, what should match and one unknown. You may use words, drawings, pointing or speech. No real handling is needed.

Evidence / operator / support

Supplied fiction is not actual cloth/card operation. Choose your response method.

The original E drawings add these exact captions: “A: before · 4 equal units” is a flat rectangle in Stage1; “B: gathered · 2 equal units” is a mound outline and “C: adult arranged flat · 4 equal units” is a flat rectangle in Stage2. The widths represent the stated projected spans, not full material lengths or measurements. Retain the prediction before revealing B/C; the art supplies no computed change or key.
