# C-first · The four status slips · educator account, criteria and next teaching

**Eligibility:** After Day 36. Unknown/zero/no-action concepts familiar; exact values/accounts held. **Complete source:** Four fictional slips. S1: archive date 11, named Moon observation attempted, view obstructed by a roof, position unavailable. S2: date 12, observer wrote a plan but explicitly did not attempt observation. S3: date 13, no result record supplied; whether an observation occurred unknown. S4: date 14, a named paper-model planet token was measured at 0 equal paper units from the fixed baseline by a fictional helper. This is a given model measurement, not a real sky distance or learner measurement.

## Exact prompts and meaning

1. **What do S1 and S2 say happened? Keep their difference.** Expected: S1 attempted/unavailable; S2 plan/not attempted. Criterion: action and finding both preserved without sky nonexistence inference. Next: compare attempted-but-unreadable versus explicitly unattempted label-reading stories.
2. **What can we say about S3? What question could help?** Expected: no supplied result and unknown occurrence; ask recorder whether attempted/what was recorded, no invented answer. Criterion: missing record does not entail no action. Next: show a missing school-club note and a separately stated cancellation; keep unknown distinct.
3. **What does 0 in S4 measure? What does it not mean?** Expected: model token baseline distance in given equal units; not no planet/no action/no light. Criterion: value attached to measured quantity/reference/actor. Next: make an actual optional paper baseline placement and record 0 only if measured, or use another explicitly supplied measurement.
4. **Make one honest status row for a slip.** Expected: complete chosen identity/date/action/result/source/unknown fields using only account; child may dictate. Criterion: usable representation preserves statuses; no penalty for communication form. Next: provide one blank row and ask which field an unrelated record actually supplies, leaving unavailable parts unknown.

## Capture and support

Keep the first response before help. Read neutrally or scribe exactly; note actual communication, operator, prompt and exposure. Source interpretation does not establish actual sky conduct. Record one descriptive state and reason: meaning evidenced here; meaning after named help; unclear here; unobserved on this route. No total or official grade conversion.
