Learner choices

Target/codes: Compare two human-designed fold orientations for a named reader; AC9TDEFK01 and AC9TDEFP01, ideas only.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. The new reader wants to find CLOSE first and then WIDE, without losing the second card.
  2. Notice source · 4 min. Show SIDE FOLD and TOP FOLD. Both are drawn broad-paper proposals with outside name and inside two-card placeholder; neither is physically tried.
  3. Model · 5 min. A side opening may put the label on one edge; a top opening may put it on another. Which a reader can locate depends on actual size, placement and access. Say “might,” not “works.”
  4. Child design talk · 7 min. Child identifies one possible help and difficulty for each orientation, then chooses provisionally for a seated pretend reader. Offer an adult description, big picture, gesture or tactile outline if approved.
  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Record both distinguishing features and the choice reason. If only colour is mentioned, ask which opening or large label would still work without colour. No actual retention result is known.
  6. Exit · 2 min. “I would explore ___ first because ___.”
