# Day 12 · What does council actually do?

**Goal:** Explain a narrow council service role with a source and a specific limit.

**Partial codes:** AC9HS4K08, AC9HS4S02, AC9HS4S03, AC9HS4S05, AC9HS4S07; original task criterion, not official grade.

**Ready:** C03/C04, 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:** F3 general council roles include recreational facilities such as parks and bike paths, local roads and waste disposal. Model “Council can have a park-service role” versus “Council repairs every park today”; the latter is unsupported. C03 explicitly names a fictional association as toy-room provider. Provider, funder and owner are different questions.

**8–13 Guided:** Compare F3 and the association notice. Locate publisher and relevant words. Sort a statement into source-supported or needs-another-source, then justify. The word council on a page does not prove council ownership of every listed place.

**13–23 Own useful work:** Make a source-labelled service-role explanation and an unknown about a specific place. C04 transport drawing is optional. No full list of government duties required.

**23–27 Inspect and next teaching:** Look for role plus source connection. If all places become council-owned, reread C03’s provider. If only “parks” is copied, ask what responsibility F3 describes.

**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

- R12A: Place supplied statements in provider/source folders, leaving an unsupported claim in UNKNOWN; explain the placement.
- R12B: Arrange role, service and source-credit cards with removable arrows, then explain that arrows show a source connection, not an ownership map.
- R12C: Give a private spoken/signed counterclaim to “every shared place belongs to council”, using C03 and F3; a scribe can record decisions.

**Coupling:** same Day in CHILD-AND-WRITTEN; C03/C04, H02, X02. Assessment selection explicit in own-work, never automatic.
