Choose interests with the child; these are invented contexts, not real health/safety directions, forecasts or cultural meanings. The first-response checks stay unseen until scheduled. The four check-day variations below are AFTER first response and feedback only, with different sources from the checks. Preserve exact source/key, actual physical/description route and child choices; a teacher model is not an independent learner result.

Day Worked variation A Worked variation B
31 Toy post desk: source CARD → ENVELOPE; two broad props and two matching drawings keep that order. A drawn envelope is a picture, not a physical envelope. Paper garden display: source PAPER LEAF → PAPER FLOWER → FINISH CARD. Labels describe invented props, not a living plant observation.
32 Pretend parcel key: oval = CARD, diamond = ENVELOPE. CARD → ENVELOPE becomes oval → diamond; attach this exact key. Toy train display: circle = TOY ENGINE, square = TOY WAGON. ENGINE → WAGON becomes circle → square; these are props, not rail instructions.
33 Library puppet reads BOOK → CLOSED CARD as circle → triangle under circle=BOOK/triangle=CLOSED CARD. If it reads triangle first, compare position 1 with the source and repair the read. Art desk reader sees star-symbol alone but no key. Supply star=SHOW PAPER LEAF rather than assume the reader knows; record their actual response if any.
34 Empty MY VOICE RECORDING could hold data about my voice; invented toy train key describes the toy display. No voice recording is made or requested. Empty MY OWN DRAWING can describe my creation; a fixed teacher-created paper flower is different data. Do not request a child's drawing or publish it.
35 · AFTER Kitchen-table puppet source SPOON CARD → BOWL CARD; square=SPOON CARD/circle=BOWL CARD gives square → circle. Use broad drawings/props; no food or actual kitchen task. Toy ticket desk source PAPER TICKET → BOOK; oval=TICKET/rectangle=BOOK gives oval → rectangle. It is not a real ticket or a payment task.
36 Pretend camping picture source PAPER TENT → PAPER BAG. Key A circle=TENT/square=BAG gives circle → square; Key B square=TENT/circle=BAG gives square → circle. No camping safety advice follows. Paper museum source DRAWN BOX → DRAWN CUP. Key A triangle=BOX/oval=CUP; Key B oval=BOX/triangle=CUP. The data stays BOX → CUP while its shapes swap.
37 Toy book desk changes BOOK → STAR → FINISH to BOOK → MOON → FINISH. Under circle=BOOK/square=STAR/oval=MOON/triangle=FINISH, only middle square becomes oval. Pretend music display changes PAPER DRUM → PAPER BELL to PAPER DRUM → PAPER SHAKER; the first object/picture/symbol stays. Paper musical props establish no real sound.
38 Actual approved tablet running this studio: child chooses D then symbols, producing the keyed display to help a reader. Record actual input/output/purpose and support; a paper mimic is different device evidence. Approved laptop with keyboard: child selects Key 2 and reads a fixed A message. An adult-operated control is recorded with exact child direction, not independent physical input.
39 Child chooses SHOW MOON → FINISH under extended Key 1; broad moon/folded card, matching pictures and oval → triangle preserve their chosen data. Actual reader might read both correctly or need the key; record only what happened. Child chooses WAVE → WAVE → FINISH under Key 1; objects/pictures duplicate the first item and symbols are circle → circle → triangle. This represents a chosen message, not an assessed repeating unit.
40 · AFTER New toy-shop display source BOX → BAG. Key A oval=BOX/square=BAG; Key B oval=BOX/triangle=BAG. Oval stays, second symbol changes; no real purchase. New pretend weather board source PAPER CLOUD → PAPER SUN. Key A circle=CLOUD/square=SUN; Key B triangle=CLOUD/square=SUN. Second symbol stays. These are fictional pictures, not a forecast.
