# Ten optional 6–8 minute follow-ups · Foundation English Days 171–180

Choose one extra practice after the main lesson, and after the fresh check on Days 175/180. Adult reads rich words; the child chooses mode. Each day has **two worked swaps from different everyday domains** for the same target. They are fictional or paper-only; no family disclosure, purchase or real-space dispute is required.

| Day | Worked swap A | Worked swap B | Look for / teacher move |
|---:|---|---|---|
| 171 | **Community library model:** two paper characters want one broad display board, one for a story and one for labels. **Answer:** both wants are stated; whether sharing works is not. | **Paper market:** one character wants a counter for toy fruit shapes, another for price-card sorting. **Answer:** describe each wish without declaring one more deserving. | Child cites both source lines and names one unknown; offer character cards if views blur. |
| 172 | **Bus-stop model:** “Move the paper bus sign” gives no request/other view; “Could I move the paper sign after your turn? I need a clear route” does. **Answer:** latter gives ask and reason. | **Sports badge model:** “I hear you want the paper badges first. Could we choose an order?” **Answer:** it acknowledges other view while asking. | Child can disagree respectfully; fairness depends on actual response, not politeness alone. |
| 173 | **Toy kitchen:** propose alternating one wide paper tray; **answer:** “both got a turn” is still unknown until tried. | **Art-wall model:** propose two separate broad paper panels; **answer:** whether both displays fit is still to check. | Child keeps proposal and result in separate fields and asks an answerable check question. |
| 174 | **Library shelf:** first “we share”, edit “could we each use one paper shelf?” **Answer:** a listener can tell what is being requested. | **Paper football field:** first “my turn”, edit “could I use the broad field mat after your turn?” **Answer:** order becomes clear. | Save exact child first/revised message; adult supplies print only with attribution. |
| 175 | **After check only, puppet ticket table:** two fictional users suggest separate corners; ask what to check after trying. **Answer:** whether each had enough space, still unknown. | **After check only, toy ferry deck:** a proposed turn plan needs both users' response. **Answer:** a smile drawing alone does not show consent. | Do not reuse the held conversation before its first record. |
| 176 | **Shop awning border:** broad triangle/triangle/circle repeated; **answer:** repeat unit triangle, triangle, circle. | **Train-seat pattern:** square/circle repeated three times; **answer:** unit square, circle. | Child names order and repeat; a colour pattern is not required. |
| 177 | **Map display:** “put the square under the circle” is clearer than “put it under there”. **Answer:** shapes and relation are named. | **Toy house:** “place triangle to left of square” and “put circle above square” allow a paper model. **Answer:** left/above require orientation to be agreed. | Child repairs one missing referent or location, then checks listener placement. |
| 178 | **Scarf border:** adult deliberately builds circle/square/circle from vague “same shapes again”; child revises to “square, circle, square” if that is the intended source. **Answer:** order is named. | **Library drawer label:** listener puts triangle below; child had meant above. **Answer:** add “above the square” and keep first words. | Record actual listener action, or label an adult simulation as model. |
| 179 | **Paper garden edge:** child teaches square/square/circle repeated, then revises an omitted “repeat”. **Answer:** final six shapes unambiguous. | **Toy bus roof:** child teaches triangle above square and circle beside square; listener asks “which side?” **Answer:** revise to right/left after orientation is agreed. | Keep meaning, punctuation and child-selected spelling separate; peer spoken-delivery code only if spoken to peers. |
| 180 | **After check only, paper menu border:** new circle/square/square strip; child states repeat unit and precise next step. **Answer:** circle, square, square. | **After check only, toy theatre mat:** ambiguous “put it next” repaired to “put one triangle after the square”. **Answer:** shape and relation named. | Use different shapes/order from held check for new practice. |

**Family option:** A five-minute paper dialogue or broad-shape direction is enough. An adult can ask “What did each person say?” or “Could I build this from your words?” and accept speech, point, AAC or drawing. Family may decline; no home-conflict account, real sharing dispute, device, printer, photo or upload is required.
