Teacher preparation simulation (not a classroom trial): I laid out seven printable aids, broad role/action cards and two sealed checks. The first four lessons move aim → obstacle → response → choice; the next four deepen possible interpretations and a nonverbal reply. Each 25-minute script totals 3+4+5+7+4+2. I can teach it without audio/video, purchases or specialised props. I would still need local approval for enactment, a real cleared arts work for FE01, and an actual willing audience for FP01. I would never present paper scripts as proof that a child performed.

Learner desk simulation: With Day 22's paper figure I can retain “show drawing” as the aim, notice the fictional narrow board, and move the sheet to a wider imagined wall. The raised-card route lets me direct this without writing or touching. Check K was kept separate: I see a full board and two figures but no pre-drawn solution; my own action/response is required. Check L likewise leaves all three moments empty. A child may pass on acting while still devising a scene.

Potential funder audit simulation: The official code-to-description pairs and QCAA Prep guidance are linked and pinned. Nine original A4 SVG/PDF pages, text alternatives, read-only verifier and SHA-256 manifest can be independently checked. The pack offers diverse modes and life-domain examples but makes no measured efficacy, uptake, accessibility-user-test or comprehensive state coverage claim. It is a draft awaiting educator, disability-access and local cultural review. Costs need not include paid worksheet marketplaces for this material.

Critique and limits: The fictional ferry/market settings are deliberately generic, so they must not be treated as authentic local histories or cultural examples. Paper visual supports are not a substitute for a child’s chosen sensory/communication profile. The font is embedded, but exact tactile cards still need an adult to construct safely. No professional actor, student or family has piloted this pack. Further work: review with Prep teachers and learners, obtain a culturally authorised real work, test actual print legibility with end users, and verify other states separately.
