Day 11 · Find a question worth keeping
Goal: Develop an investigable shared-place question and explain a suitable source lead.
Partial codes: AC9HS4K08, AC9HS4S01, AC9HS4S02, AC9HS4S07; original task criterion, not official grade.
Ready: C01/C02, exact named F facts, empty paper area/description; supplied aids or whole alternatives. Hold selected later/key.
0–3 Begin: Invite notice/question, offer routes and usual support. Not sure, new start or pause valid; no previous attendance/mastery assumed.
3–8 Model: C01 Brook Pocket Park is an invented brief listing a gate, bench and path. It names no manager. F3 gives general council responsibilities. Model changing “Why is the park bad?” to “Which source could tell us who manages this place?” The first presumes a judgement; the second names information needed. F3 alone cannot identify an unlisted manager.
8–13 Guided: Put the place brief, government fact card and source-not-yet-found card side by side. Ask a question immediately, then select a lead and explain why it fits. A child can decide that no supplied source answers their question.
13–23 Own useful work: Make an enquiry ticket: own question, source lead, reason and unknown. Use C02 music-room context if preferred. No council contact, outing or pretend reply.
23–27 Inspect and next teaching: Look for a focused own question and source-choice reason. If “everything” remains, ask what one answer would help decide. A selected adult-written question is a supported choice, not independent question development.
27–30 Keep/finish: Keep, revise or leave useful part; preserve factual credit, supplied-case/actual-use/possible-effect distinctions. Missing response is not yet observed; offer another sitting.
Three selectable mechanisms
- R11A: Compose a question from WHO/WHAT/HOW cards and reject a leading question with a reason; the learner directs every chosen word.
- R11B: Inspect the place brief privately, mark one missing role or instruction and turn the gap into an enquiry ticket; no physical site inspection.
- R11C: Rehearse asking a willing source-librarian role for a kind of document, through speech/sign/AAC. Adult suggests a source type, not a council reply.
Coupling: same Day in CHILD-AND-WRITTEN; C01/C02, H01, X01. Assessment selection explicit in own-work, never automatic.
