Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.
Target/codes: compare returning H on count 3 with holding R on count 3, and choose one to communicate attention; AC9ADAFD01, AC9ADAFC01. Prepare:C count-and-hold strip, A/B, large HOLD card.
Welcome · 3 min. Show two rows H–R–H and H–R–R; no child must “freeze” their body.
Model · 4 min. Slide a marker to R on 2, keep it there on 3. Say that stillness on paper is a choice that can keep a sign in view.
Try together · 5 min. Let children place a raised HOLD card under count 3 in B; ask what changed from A. Use quiet pointing if speaking is not chosen.
Child choice · 7 min. Child selects return or hold for a fictional library picture and directs a marker/drawing or opts into comfortable movement.
Notice · 4 min. Ask whether “every viewer looked there” is known. No: only the score and child purpose are known.
Close · 2 min. Save the two count-3 positions; next change near/far space.
