These are flexible modes for any learner, not neurotype assignments or fixed learning styles. A paper/tactile score can demonstrate a compositional choice but cannot prove physical Dance movement. Actual chosen movement requires the local safety gate. On check days, do not indicate a correct card.

Day Visual/point route Text/tactile/adult-direction route Optional physical or communication route
21 Point to two large curve cards and select which is compact/broad. Direct adult to place broad raised strips inside two fixed frames. Optionally make a comfortable hand, head or other chosen action within own safe range.
22 Arrange two fixed-size arcs in either order and point to first/second. Use two raised-width strips and an adult scribe for order. Optional comfortable chosen movement or directed adult motion; mark performer accurately.
23 Point to two of three broad band cards; no vertical reach is required. Adult places raised marker bands by child direction; orientation can be rotated. Optional movement within personally chosen, educator-approved range; seated or stationary routes welcome.
24 Choose matching large motif cards in two different bands. Use repeated raised card outline on two fixed textured bands. Optional small comfortable movement of chosen body part or adult-directed mover.
25 Point/AAC choose blank larger or equal-size motif possibilities without adult indicating correct one. Adult builds child-directed broad cards; note prompts and leave first response intact. Optional later safe enacted version, separately observed; no body movement is required to finish check.
26 Use large cards to select size-only versus level-only panel. Raised two-by-two mat and adult directed placement; tactile route uses broad fixed edges. Optional tiny comfortable gesture in one position; there is no range target.
27 Choose from broad motif cards for three numbered panels. Direct adult on raised three-frame mat with band and size tokens. Optional safe solo action in self-chosen range after warm-up/consent; no synchrony or partner contact.
28 Point to matching size/position legends and place one. Use large print or raised legend; adult reads linearly and accepts “cannot tell”. Optional chosen enacted phrase; observer records only what was actually seen and child wishes to share.
29 Point to size/band cards and choose intended three-frame score. Adult makes fixed broad raised score under child direction, no touch required. Optional locally approved small movement/share; observer notes actual child action and actual audience separately.
30 Point or AAC direct three blank source frames and size/position tokens. Adult places broad textured motifs and band markers exactly as directed. Optional later performance in chosen safe range with willing audience only if separately approved.
