- Welcome and purpose · 3 min. Explain that this is a fresh public formative check. Collect first responses before explaining a solution.
- Notice source · 4 min. Hand out Check A and the matching A4 page. Read the prompt exactly; do not supply an idea.
- Model access only · 5 min. Demonstrate how a child may point, speak, draw or direct a scribe on an unrelated blank rectangle; do not model the check's mark arrangement or choice.
- Independent first response · 7 min. Children communicate two broad-paper layouts and choose one for the stated comparison. Adults may read and transcribe verbatim, logging any content cue.
- Check/respond · 4 min. Collect first work, then use the separate public key for feedback. If only one idea appears, invite another placement. If a child reports an actual result, ask whether any paper was physically tried; no trial is required.
