Learner choices

Target/codes: An invented paper maker wants a drawing displayed where a fictional visitor can see it. A drawn action must give the audience a clue to that aim. Primary: AC9ADRFD01, AC9ADRFC01. AC9ADRFP01 only if actual willing-audience sharing is separately witnessed; AC9ADRFE01 only with cleared real work. Prepare: Original aid print/text/tactile route, two broad neutral figures, blank action cards. See materials.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. An invented paper maker wants a drawing displayed where a fictional visitor can see it. A drawn action must give the audience a clue to that aim. State that our paper story is invented and a child may point, direct or pass.

  2. Model · 4 min. A figure looks at a large drawing, points to an empty board, then lifts the drawing toward it. Say: “The lift is an action; the intended result is for a viewer to see the drawing.”

  3. Try together · 5 min. Offer the same figure with a blank board and a floor mat. Children select which action might show the aim: put the drawing on board, hide it under mat, or invent one. Ask what a viewer could actually see.

  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child builds or directs two paper moments, aim and chosen action; adult records the child’s reason without supplying one.

  5. Notice · 4 min. Compare the two moments: can a fictional viewer see a changed action? Ask what the plan does not show about a real child performance.

  6. Close · 2 min. Save the first two-moment plan. Next time a difficulty will change the choice.

Evidence/next step: If the action is invisible, add one observable change; if clear, ask for a second plausible action. See three same-goal routes, worked swaps and teacher-only key.
