Change a key, keep a version at home

Complete source

A pretend building-picture set uses BRIDGE for a bridge sketch and TOWER for a tower sketch. The request is BRIDGE. No structure is built.

Family question

Would you like to keep this, change one thing, or stop here?

Home access

Five to ten flexible unpiloted minutes, or one tiny start. Broad scrap paper and a helper are enough. No print/device/account/photo/food/cutting/private identifiers or public share. Pass/rest/private/return; helper roles recorded.

Invitation

Make a broad drawing for your imagined building collection. Try an own idea before the adult reasoning; all own places start empty.

Next offer

If a safe actual broad object is available, distinguish it from its picture.

Notice

Actual first/revised meanings and a job-related keep/change reason stay visible; a different version need not be better.

Steps

  1. Read or neutrally describe the complete building-picture source. Ask what picture-finding job the child wants before a model; a faithful spoken, signed or AAC record can replace cards.

  2. Make or direct a complete first record. For the supplied example it keeps both entries: bridge sketch — BRIDGE; tower sketch — TOWER. An own building-picture choice may replace the example if its complete item/key links are stated.

  3. Keep that first record untouched. Make a separate complete copy. In the supplied example change only the bridge key from BRIDGE to ARCH; the tower sketch still has TOWER. ARCH is a newly chosen key, not a name already in the first source.

  4. Try the same two wanted requests, BRIDGE and ARCH, on both complete supplied-example records. First record: BRIDGE finds the bridge sketch and ARCH finds no match. Changed copy: BRIDGE finds no match and ARCH finds the bridge sketch. If using own keys, choose and try the same stated requests on both actual records instead.

  5. Keep or faithfully record all actual results beside the corresponding version; extra blank places stay empty. Ask which version serves the chosen picture-finding job and why. Keeping the first version is valid; different does not mean better.

  6. Keep the two complete records privately, change one thing later, rest or stop. Record any helper role and only trials actually made; no structure, strength test or software use follows from the paper example.
