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.

Access warning: This key is public by URL in the SubjectNest library. Checks are fresh relative to the practice pages, not secure exams. Collect each child's first response before giving feedback. Adapt a case if prior key access matters. Credit an equivalent spoken, drawn, AAC or child-directed answer, and log adult content prompts and physical handling separately. Neither page proves a classroom effect.

Source: Fictional marks ZIGZAG left and DOT ROW right. The pretend visitor's purpose is comparison; both printed labels stay visible. Broad blank paper is available; no actual material trial or real visitor response is supplied.

Expected evidence: Two genuinely different broad-paper layouts, for example a broad border around both labels and a broad paper strip beneath both labels. A large surround and a side-by-side pair of frames can also work if neither printed label is covered. The child chooses an idea and explains how it makes both marks available to compare. The choice is justified from the purpose, not by declaring a verified successful test. They name what to check later: actual visibility through/around any material and a real user's ability to compare, with school approval. No single exact drawing is required.

Response moves: If one idea only, ask for a differently positioned border. If the child covers one label, reread “compare both” and ask what the pretend reader could still see. If they claim a visitor liked it, ask what real observation supports that; record it as a prediction here. If adult gives the layout, note adult content cue and invite an independent second response later. No trial result is prefilled.

Check B · Day 30 · Paper Direction Pointer

Source: Fictional card order ARC, GRID, CROSS; target GRID in the middle. A broad blunt paper pointer should indicate target GRID while the printed GRID label stays visible. The supplied blank broad paper can be prepared only by an adult, and a school trial is optional.

Expected design evidence: Two different broad pointer shapes/placements, such as a broad triangle tip placed below GRID and a broad rectangular edge placed beside GRID. Choose one with a purpose-linked reason. Safe sequence: adult checks/prepares the large blunt paper, child may choose/fold/place or direct an adult if approved, point to GRID, inspect whether GRID is clearly indicated and the GRID label remains visible, then report the actual result. A broad drawn arrow is a valid plan, but it is not child material handling. The child or adult records who handled it.

Result key is conditional: TARGET CLEAR only if an actual supervised placement indicates GRID and keeps its label readable; LABEL COVERED only if an actual supervised placement covers the GRID label; NOT TRIED if there was no approved trial. Another observed outcome should be described accurately rather than forced into these labels. No prior result is printed. A real covered label is a useful design finding, not an incorrect child answer; reposition/reshape and test again only if approved. With NOT TRIED, ask what would need observing, without inventing success.

Next moves: If the child points at ARC or CROSS, revisit the exact left-to-right source and middle target. If no second idea, move an uncut paper outline to another side. If a child treats adult-only cutting as their own tool use, separate designer, preparer and handler in the private record. If the plan is safe but no trial is possible, credit planning/communication and mark making/testing not observed.
