Goal: form a specific next question while keeping the current report separate from an unrun test. Proposed codes: AC9EFLA08, AC9EFLY02, AC9EFLY05. Prepare: C/D, broad SAME / CHANGE / CHECK cards, Card 168.

Oral/print · 3 min. Adult says “What if the disk changes?” Child points to the question voice/mark; no printed decoding claim.
Listen · 4 min. Reread C's final sentence. Ask which load and gap Ari did not try.
Model · 5 min. Ask “Would the card stay whole with a second broad disk over the same gap?” Mark change = load, same = gap/card; result = unknown. No load is actually applied.
Child try · 7 min. Choose pretend shop canopy, puppet shelter or model bus-stop roof route; create one answerable, safe paper-only next-test question. A non-touch child directs an adult or uses a drawing.
Check · 4 min. Contrast “Is card always best?” with “Would this card strip stay whole under two broad disks over this gap?” Ask which has a checkable condition.
Exit · 2 min. Child names what could change their current explanation if a new test gave a different result.
