Learner choices

Target/codes: represent the same invented data with physical object stand-ins, pictures and letter symbols; AC9TDIFK02 (partial). Prepare: Shelf Set source, three broad tokens, three-way mat.

  1. Preview · 3 min. Read BOOK, BOOK, CUP from the fictional source; say no real shelf was checked. Show three broad physical tokens as stand-ins.
  2. Notice · 4 min. Child points to each of the three source entries; adult models “two BOOK, one CUP” without relying on colour.
  3. Model · 5 min. Place two physical tokens under BOOK and one under CUP; draw two original book outlines and one cup; write B B C in source order. Name object, picture, symbol.
  4. Child route · 7 min. Day 1 A/B/C recreate all three forms with child-controlled choices or adult movement. Check the source order after each change.
  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Ask which form has three entries and which category has two. Record whether the child kept the source categories or an adult supplied them. If order drifts, align one entry at a time.
  6. Close · 2 min. Child chooses the representation they want a puppet to see and gives one reason; no fixed style label.
