Source review complete · local suitability still needs review.

An ordinary teaching idea. The example below is made up; your own work can stay private.

Have a go

  1. Read Nia's fictional event.
  2. Keep the one supplied action/choice and a separate open question.
  3. Choose what you would check next without inventing a second result.

Example and reasoning

In a fictional event, Nia places a broad cue beside two own drawings and names one drawing. No second attempt, preference or other player is reported. Ask what this one account supplies and what remains open. It does not prove every cue always works. Next help: retain 'this event' and ask a separate next check question; no repeat quota.

Grown-up help

Offer speech, sign, AAC, pointing, drawing, faithful dictation, usual home-language support when competent, private work, pause, rest or finish. Ask one part at a time and keep its meaning. No partner, winner, score, time limit or fixed response length is required. Use only locally suitable broad whole paper/card, a checked marking tool and a stable comfortable table. A helper may act exactly as directed; keep the child's idea and the actual operator's action separate. Record an actual event only when it happened. A missing record can mean unknown; it does not establish that no action happened. A supplied story remains fiction.

Show the worked reasoning after an offered own idea where useful. This context is not a held first/later source.
