Learner choices

Target/codes: explain what stays constant when a source is shown as picture/symbol and distinguish physical objects from their on-screen depictions; AC9TDIFK01 conditional, AC9TDIFK02 partial. Prepare: source, three-way mat, optional checker.

  1. Preview · 3 min. Revisit four positions and that only actual broad tokens are object stand-ins; a drawing of a token is a picture.
  2. Source · 4 min. Compare source silhouettes with P T P B. Ask what stayed as PANEL in both positions 1 and 3.
  3. Model · 5 min. Switch picture→symbol on paper by overlaying broad cards, or on approved device by choosing view buttons. Explain that screen output changes representation, not the invented source entries.
  4. Child route · 7 min. Child uses four physical tokens, picture cards and symbol letters to show one unchanged mapping; optional actual device view switch can be observed separately. Allow tactile, spoken or adult-directed route.
  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Record source trace and whether child distinguishes screen pictogram from physical object. If they say pressing Pictures created a real tube, put a broad physical token alongside the screen and describe the two forms.
  6. Close · 2 min. Finish “The source stayed ; the view changed from ___ to .”
