Goal: ask an answerable design question and distinguish a wish from a tested finding. Proposed codes: AC9EFLY02, AC9EFLY05, AC9EFLY06. Prepare: C, Card 148, blank paper design mat; use a fictional case if no safe model.
- Oral/print · 3 min. Child segments spoken
sit; show taught print only after sounds. Adult reads design words. - Listen · 4 min. Reread C and ask what the stand needed to do; show a large paper card, no personal object.
- Model · 5 min. Contrast “Can this stand hold this card for five slow counts?” with “Is this the best stand?” The first names a checkable condition.
- Child try · 7 min. Choose library label, maker display or paper theatre; child asks one neutral, testable question and selects drawing, model or AAC route for a proposed change.
- Check · 4 min. Adult says “I think it will stand” without testing. Child classifies prediction versus observation and suggests a safe next test.
- Exit · 2 min. Child names what would count as passing the stated test. Record question quality, not fluency of speech.
