Goal: Choose two comfortable movement ideas and give each a clear mark. Proposed partial AC9ADAFD01 / AC9ADAFC01; any AC9ADAFP01 needs actual willing sharing. Prepare: Broad A circle and B square cards, blank key; adult checks reachable stable space and individual movement options. Read two-move key or draw its marks.
-
Arrive · 3 min. Say, “Let's make a tiny dance that belongs to you. What feels comfortable today?” A child may choose to plan instead. Ask what the two ideas could be about: a greeting, a picture opening or a private play idea.
-
Read · 4 min. Present Source A's A/B marks without fixed body meanings. Demonstrate making a mark key by naming two paper ideas: circle means first idea; square means second. A mark is a reminder, not an instruction to stretch.
-
Try · 5 min. Let the child name or indicate their own two distinct movement ideas. Read their choices back. If locally approved and chosen, try each once at their comfortable scale, with rest. Otherwise direct an adult or arrange two marks; identify the actual route.
-
Make · 7 min. The child draws, points, signs, uses AAC or directs their A/B key. Ask, “Which goes first?” Keep A/B definitions stable for this phrase. Offer a break within this time; no repeated physical effort is required.
-
Notice · 4 min. Read the key and ask the child whether it matches their idea. Record their own decisions separately from any movement actually observed. If A and B are identical by accident, offer a second distinct chosen idea; don't invent one.
-
Keep · 2 min. Save the key with date, route and support. Tomorrow it will help someone read the order.
Next teaching: If both marks have no agreed meaning, return to naming one idea at a time. If clear, ask how swapping their order might change the phrase.
