# Foundation / Prep English · Weeks 37–38 · Days 181–190

**Teacher draft, 29 September 2026.** Week 37 asks a clear question and reads a small, original **fictional paper-card inventory** without turning it into a claim about children's preferences. Week 38 edits a statement about **two invented plant drawings** so the words say only what the source shows, then plans an optional school-approved real observation. The drawings are rehearsal sources, not local species or evidence that a living thing actually grew.

Start with [ten timed 25-minute lessons](LESSONS.md), [complete original sources](MATERIALS.md), [thirty same-target learner routes](LEARNER-CARDS.md), [twenty worked extra examples](OPTIONAL-PRACTICE.md), [two fresh teacher-held checks](ASSESSMENT.md) with a [separate key](TEACHER-KEY.md), and five original A4 printables: [shape inventory SVG](shape-tray-data.svg) / [PDF](shape-tray-data.pdf), [question cards SVG](question-cards.svg) / [PDF](question-cards.pdf), [data report mat SVG](data-report.svg) / [PDF](data-report.pdf), [mock plant drawings SVG](mock-plant-pair.svg) / [PDF](mock-plant-pair.pdf), [fact/check/edit mat SVG](fact-check-edit.svg) / [PDF](fact-check-edit.pdf). [Exact text, tactile and adult-directed equivalents](MATERIALS.md) allow all core tasks on paper without a device, printer, audio cue or outdoor visit.

**Set up in five minutes:** Adult reads the day's source, places broad paper category/leaf cards or reads their linear descriptions, and gives a marker or AAC/pointing option. The child can choose a context and communication route, including quiet/private sharing. If a real local investigation is chosen, the teacher first approves the site/material/child access, records date and what was actually seen, and permits a pass. No child survey, personal preference, image upload, living-thing handling or family disclosure is required. Adult-read rich text supports listening/viewing; optional child print is only shown at the individual's explicitly taught grapheme–sound point. Keep Days 185/190 check text and keys private until the first independent response is recorded.

**Curriculum and rights:** [Exact pinned ACARA v9 Foundation English rows](CURRICULUM-CROSSWALK.md) support proposed partial national links; [QCAA ACiQ v9 English](https://www.qcaa.qld.edu.au/p-10/aciq/version-9/learning-areas/p-10-english) is the Queensland Prep entry point. Separate state/local mapping remains due. [Source/rights ledger](SOURCE-RIGHTS.md) and [honest desk review](QA-RUN-THROUGH.md) name what was checked and what needs human/classroom work.
