# Foundation / Queensland Prep Design and Technologies · Term 2 Weeks 17–18

This ninth original fortnight moves from the [material-purpose pad](../weeks-15-16/README.md) to a different design problem: **how can a large, simple folder carry two related messages so a new person can find the right one without mistaking a partial view or an unanswered request for the whole story?** Week 17 uses two invented picture-source cards, CLOSE and WIDE. Week 18 transfers the handoff idea to a care **request and actual answer**, with the answer left blank unless an authorised school contact really gives it. Children compare folder ideas, plan a safe broad-paper fold, try ordinary insertion/retrieval only if school-approved, record a willing user's exact response, and revise from evidence or an honest unknown. There is no drop, load, pressure, outdoor or care-action test.

This is adjacent to integrated [Week 17 picture views](../../../term-2/week-17-what-a-picture-shows.md) and [Week 18 shared-place care](../../../term-2/week-18-care-for-a-shared-place.md). Those blocks handle media framing, data, local place observation, permission and movement separately. This Design pack focuses on the **person-made handoff product**: user, purpose, folder features, material steps and whether a real reader could locate two records in an approved ordinary try. An invented card is not a class-data result, real place observation, granted permission or evidence that a child made a material product.

Start with [fictional cards and safe kit](MATERIALS.md). Use [ten timed 25-minute scripts](LESSONS.md), [thirty switchable same-goal routes](LEARNER-CARDS.md), [twenty worked context swaps](PRACTICE-SWAPS.md), [eight original A4 SVG/PDF pairs with complete linear/tactile/no-print alternatives](print/TEXT-ALTERNATIVES.md), and [two fresh public formative checks](STUDENT-CHECKS.md) with a [separate public teacher key](teacher/KEY-AND-NEXT.md). Every home bridge needs only talk or drawing, and every lesson has a no-material route.

**Evidence gate:** A printed folder diagram is a plan. An adult checks and prepares any real broad clean blunt paper and two large practice cards. Optional child folding/inserting occurs only when approved, willing and supervised; otherwise a child may direct an adult or stay with design talk. Record who physically folded, inserted and retrieved. A real reader's exact response is recorded only if a willing reader actually tries. In Week 18, a fictional or unanswered request remains **WAITING / NO ANSWER**; this folder never grants permission. A real care action, shared place or Country/Place account belongs under local school authority and separate evidence.

The [exact ACARA v9/QCAA Prep crosswalk](CURRICULUM-CROSSWALK.md), [source and reuse ledger](SOURCE-AND-RIGHTS.md), [role run-through](RUN-THROUGH.md), [offline verifier](verify_pack.py) and [SHA-256 receipt](manifest.json) make the authored evidence reviewable. This is an author-reviewed draft, not a QCAA-endorsed unit, full-year course, secure exam, classroom trial or proven child benefit.
