Goal: distinguish what a story image depicts from what its adult-read words add. Proposed codes: AC9EFLA07, AC9EFLY04, AC9EFLY05. Prepare: Card 122, story A first/middle images and caption/speech cards.

  1. Print retrieve · 3 min. Show I can see a map. before any map image; hear map/see separately if line is memorised.
  2. Model · 4 min. Show story A middle frame without speech bubble. Say the image shows a paper shoot; then read “Look!” and explain a character calls attention to it.
  3. Guide · 5 min. Hide image and say “Look!” alone. Ask what the words do not identify; reveal a different original paper object image to show why the picture matters.
  4. Child try · 7 min. Give two new teacher-described frame/caption pairings from story A. Child says one visible detail and one thing the words add or fail to tell, preserving source versus guess.
  5. Check · 4 min. Ask if an image can show the paper plant's real growth time. Expect no; this is an invented sequence without measurements.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Child completes “The picture shows ; the words tell .” Use a single labelled frame next time if both roles are blurred.
