Goal: organise source-bound details into title, source, two sentences and one open question. Proposed codes: AC9EFLA05, AC9EFLA06, AC9EFLA09, AC9EFLY06. Prepare: B and blank information-page mat, Card 163.
- Oral/print · 3 min. Adult says “Plant P has leaves.” Child segments the spoken sentence into four word tokens; letters shown only at taught point.
- Read · 4 min. Read B. Identify its title, two source details, caption and question. The teacher distinguishes drawing source from a real field record.
- Model · 5 min. Start a new page “Plant Q”, select its two visible details, point to the sentence first capital and end stop. Do not copy B as a child independent creation.
- Child try · 7 min. Child chooses a large plant-card, toy-garden or paper museum context. Directs a title, source label and one or two accurate sentences; adult scribes only exact dictated words, marking adult spelling.
- Check · 4 min. Present “Q has three oval leaves.” Child corrects to the source's two narrow leaves and points to A. Keep first and edited statement.
- Exit · 2 min. Ask whether a source labelled “drawing” can be called “I saw this in our garden.” It cannot, unless a real observation occurred separately.
