# Twenty optional worked swaps · two different domains per day

Each cell gives an **invented** prompt and a worked *reasoning* response, not a claim that the design worked in real material or helped a real person. Swap one into the day's question after the main source; Days 5 and 10 swaps are **after first check responses only**. Use adult-prepared broad paper and a clear table for any actual safe trial. A teacher records actual observed results separately. These optional examples need no purchase, real site, family detail or photograph.

| Day | Worked swap 1 | Worked swap 2 |
| ---: | --- | --- |
| 1 | **Pretend music corner:** a broad PAPER LYRIC BOARD has a wide foot and tall face. A person chose the wide foot to *try* to show a large music mark upright to a reader; no singer or stability result is claimed. | **Fictional garden sign:** a broad paper PLANT LABEL has large writing. A person chose size for a pretend reader to notice the label; no real plant or weather test is claimed. |
| 2 | **Toy book return service:** STEP 1 put a big blank book card in a drawn return zone; STEP 2 take a blank token. The order is human-chosen so the pretend user can see where to begin. | **Invented sports-equipment desk:** STEP 1 leave a large paper BALL card in a box; STEP 2 mark an empty box. A person designed the sequence; we do not record a real borrower's action. |
| 3 | **Paper museum floor:** two drawn exhibit blocks leave a wide pencil route. A person arranged the blocks for a pretend visitor to move between them; real access requires local review, not this sketch. | **Pretend home-work area:** a drawn desk and shelf leave open middle paper space. Moving the shelf drawing changes the proposed layout; no real home is being described. |
| 4 | **Imaginary bus-stop notice:** a flat paper notice and a folded notice are two ideas; choose folded *because it may face a reader*, then ask whether it stands in an actual safe trial. | **Fictional theatre sign:** a broad upright card and broad side flap are two ideas; choose the flap if the intended reader is beside the table, while leaving reader success untested. |
| 5 | **After-check only, pretend puppet stage:** two large paper entry labels could sit one before the other. Work the reasoning: a person would choose their order to guide a puppet; no actual audience comprehension is known. | **After-check only, imaginary library cart:** a broad paper shelf marker and a flat table card are two ideas for showing “BOOK”; choose based on where the pretend reader would look, not a fabricated test. |
| 6 | **Pretend recipe card display:** idea 1 lays a large neutral symbol flat, idea 2 uses one broad fold; choose fold to *test* facing a reader. Materials: one approved broad sheet, hands and clear table. | **Toy train-rule display:** a broad triangular fold or broad rolled edge are two proposed shapes. Choose triangular fold for a trial; the actual result stays NOT TRIED until paper is placed and released. |
| 7 | **Paper recycling prompt:** a child-approved wide fold is placed on a clear table with a neutral square card. Record STAYED/SLIPPED/FELL only after a real trial; a drawing cannot supply the result. | **Pretend map legend stand:** with adult-approved broad paper, fold, place, let go, count to three. “It might stay upright” is a prediction; the teacher writes what actually happened, including NOT TRIED. |
| 8 | **Fictional game-rule display:** if an actual folded paper leaned forward, a child may propose a shorter face and retry. The old observation and new observation stay separate; no outcome is prefilled. | **Paper poster helper:** if a real stand held for three counts, a wider base is still a proposed change; test again to find out. Do not infer a reader understood the message. |
| 9 | **Pretend library sorting mat:** make broad BOOK and CUP zones and place two large paper category cards; a drawn line only predicts separation, while placed cards can show it for this tabletop trial. | **Imaginary art-supply mat:** broad BRUSH and CRAYON zones are designed by someone for a fictional tidy task. If the paper cards are actually placed apart, record only that local observation. |
| 10 | **After-check only, paper postcard shelter:** two broad folds might make a cover for a large blank postcard. Choose one and state a safe dry-table check; no shelter outcome is assumed. | **After-check only, pretend catalogue flap:** a wide paper tab might keep one large page corner visible. Give two ideas, choose for a reader's purpose, and record NOT TRIED unless the material is truly tested. |

**Next moves:** If a child names the product but not its user/purpose, ask who the feature was made for and where the source shows it. If two ideas differ only by colour, ask for a shape/step change tied to the purpose. If a child says “it worked” before any test, write PREDICTION and invite a safe trial if approved. If a real structure falls, keep that result and invite one revision. If an adult alone makes the object, separate the child's idea/evaluation from direct material handling evidence.
