# Full linear, tactile and no-print alternatives for eight original A4 aids

Each SVG has a title and description; its PDF is one-page A4 with selectable words but is **untagged**, so use this complete linear text or a local accessible copy for screen readers. Large dark outlines and written labels, not colour alone, carry meaning. The images are diagrams and never actual size folder patterns, real photos, physical tests or permission records. A **tactile** route may use adult-prepared school-approved large raised outlines or a child-directed adult hand trace if welcome; never surprise-touch a child or supply a small loose piece. A spoken/AAC/no-touch route meets the same Design goal. No gate/result is preselected.

## paired-view-brief.svg / paired-view-brief.pdf

Title: “Two picture-source cards.” Subtitle: “Invented CLOSE and WIDE cards; neither is a real observation.” Two separate large outlined cards. Left **CLOSE** has **TWO RINGS** drawn as two empty circles. Right **WIDE** has **TWO RINGS AND ONE TRIANGLE**. These are fictional marks by the same pretend maker. Bottom: “CLOSE alone does not show what is outside its view”; “Both broad cards need a truthful handoff label”; “No real photo, class data or reader answer is supplied.” The triangle exists in the invented wide source but is outside the close view.

Linear prompt: “A new reader gets only CLOSE. What can they say is visible? What cannot they know from that card alone? How might a folder help them find WIDE too?” Tactile option: adult describes or, with approval, offers two large raised-ring shapes, then a separate wide source with the same two rings and a large raised triangle. Record that this is a constructed fictional model, not a real source.

## folder-ideas.svg / folder-ideas.pdf

Title: “Two folder-opening ideas.” Two side-by-side outlined schematic panels: **SIDE FOLD** shows a vertical central fold; **TOP FOLD** shows a horizontal central fold. Both carry **OUTSIDE NAME** and **INSIDE TWO CARDS** placeholder words. Bottom: “Which opening and label might help your reader?” and “No actual fold, card fit or reader response is shown.” Neither drawing depicts a physically made folder.

Linear prompt: “Compare where each broad sheet would open and where a large label might be placed. Choose provisionally for a named reader.” Tactile option: adult may trace one vertical and one horizontal imaginary line on a large approved sheet under the child's direction. No real fold is necessary.

## safe-folder-steps.svg / safe-folder-steps.pdf

Title: “Safe folder handoff steps.” Intro: “No cutting, fastening, dropping or pressure trials.” Four numbered boxes: **1 ADULT CHECKS** — “Clean large blunt paper, access and clear table.” **2 PLAN A BIG FOLD** — “Child chooses; adult prepares and controls making.” **3 PLACE TWO LARGE CARDS** — “If approved, note who folds and inserts each card.” **4 ASK AND RECORD** — “Willing reader finds a named card; note exact action.” Bottom: “No approved material/reader action? Write NOT TRIED.”

Linear prompt: read each step, ask who physically does it, and stop on discomfort or missing approval. Tactile option: adult reads large whole step cards one at a time while the child orders them by speech, pointing or AAC. This print page does not authorise material handling.

## handoff-record.svg / handoff-record.pdf

Title: “Handoff design and evidence record.” Four large blank panels with lines: **USER / PURPOSE** — “Who needs which two notes, and why?” **TWO IDEAS / CHOICE** — “What differs? Why choose one first?” **HANDLER / ACTUAL FIND** — “Who folded/inserted? What did reader select?” **READER / NEXT QUESTION** — “Exact words/action or NOT TRIED; what next?” Intro: “Separate the child's idea from physical and reader evidence.” Nothing is prefilled.

Linear prompt: ask the four questions in order and transcribe exact child words and actual source of any result. Tactile/no-print option: four spoken headings; an adult records child direction. If no approved ordinary find happened, write NOT TRIED instead of a guessed selection.

## care-request-brief.svg / care-request-brief.pdf

Title: “Care request and blank answer.” Intro: **FICTIONAL CLASSROOM REHEARSAL · no action approved**. First large panel **REQUEST AND REASON**: “May we return the large paper picture to the class shelf?” “We want the shared table clear.” “Pretend indoor courtyard viewing area.” Second large panel **SCHOOL CONTACT ANSWER** has a completely blank writing line and “Blank until an authorised person really answers.” Bottom: **STATUS: WAITING / NO ANSWER · no action yet**. The sheet is neither a real school message nor authority to move an item.

Linear prompt: “Where is the question? Where would a real authorised answer go? What is the status now?” Tactile option: adult describes two large separate panels, or marks two wide spaces on a school-approved sheet, leaving the answer empty.

## local-source-slot.svg / local-source-slot.pdf

Title: “Real familiar source slot.” Four empty panels: **APPROVED REAL SOURCE** — “Which actual familiar item or service?” **DATE / PLACE / PERMISSION** — “When, where and who approved showing it?” **CHILD-SEEN FEATURE** — “What did the child really notice?” **DESIGNED PURPOSE / QUESTION** — “Who uses the feature? What remains unknown?” Top: “Leave empty without a school-approved actual source.”

Linear prompt: use only with a genuinely approved local familiar product/service/environment. A child may dictate. Tactile/no-print option: adult accurately describes the real item and records whether the child saw, felt or heard a description; do not relabel a fictional source as locally familiar.

## check-a-lantern-drawing.svg / check-a-lantern-drawing.pdf

Title: “Check A: Lantern Drawing Handoff.” Fresh fictional source panel: **CLOSE CARD: ONE CIRCLE**; **WIDE CARD: ONE CIRCLE AND TWO SQUARES**; both are marks from one invented drawing, not a real lantern. “No folder or reader result is supplied.” Below: “Show TWO folder ideas; choose one for the new reader.” Two empty broad response spaces labelled **IDEA ONE** and **IDEA TWO**. Bottom: “What is outside CLOSE? What would a real reader find?” There is no model answer, actual fold or selected user result on the page.

Linear prompt: read source exactly once, invite independent two-design response in the child's communication mode, then collect first work before coaching. Tactile option: adult describes circle/square shapes verbally or with approved large raised marks, then describes two blank idea spaces; do not suggest a folder design.

## check-b-garden-request.svg / check-b-garden-request.pdf

Title: “Check B: Garden-view Request Handoff.” Fresh fictional source panel: **GARDEN-VIEW REQUEST**: “May we return the large picture to the class shelf?” “We want the shared table clear for the next person.” **SCHOOL CONTACT ANSWER: __________________** is blank. **WAITING / NO ANSWER · no action approved**. Below: “Show TWO folder ideas; choose one for this handoff.” Two empty broad response spaces labelled **IDEA ONE** and **IDEA TWO**. Bottom: “No material, reader or permission result is supplied.”

Linear prompt: read the fictional question and blank answer, allow two independent broad-folder ideas, an adult-gated step plan and truthful status. Tactile/no-print option: adult names the separate question/empty answer areas and two blank design slots. A paper request cannot authorise a real care action or supply a real reader result.
