Learner choices

Target/codes: If school-approved, mark a large board, place broad cards and record actual fit and willing-user response; AC9TDEFP01 conditional making evidence.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Confirm approval, a large safe surface, prepared broad cards, stable table and willingness. Otherwise use the spoken-plan route and NOT TRIED.
  2. Read source · 4 min. Re-read safe steps and child's Day 53/56 design. The A4 diagram is a reference, not a physical template.
  3. Model recording · 5 min. Show design record. Leave maker, card and viewer result blanks until an actual event. Adult can give counting support; record it separately from Design making.
  4. Child trial or plan · 7 min. With approval, child marks intended spaces on a large page and places ten adult-prepared broad cards, or directs an adult who physically does those steps. Record who marked and who placed. Observe FIT / OVERLAP or describe another actual outcome for this setup. A willing viewer may point to an empty place or describe difficulty; record exact action. No trial: describe plan, mark NOT TRIED, viewer unknown.
  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Record maker, support, actual material result and any viewer response separately. If a child predicts every card fitted but no cards were placed, return to NOT TRIED. Adult-only marking is not child material use.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Save the first design and actual record or clear untried plan.
