Learner choices

Goal: add a precise label, outline or location so a listener using a different access route can follow the same instruction. Proposed codes: AC9EFLA07, AC9EFLY02, AC9EFLY05. Prepare: A, TENT/POND/PATH text/tactile descriptions, B, Card 193.

  1. Oral/print · 3 min. Orally contrast “there” and “middle of the mat” as phrases; do not turn rich words into untaught print tests.
  2. Read · 4 min. Read B's first draft. Offer A's outline/label description without relying on colour or pointing alone.
  3. Model · 5 min. Compare “take the blue one” with “take the POND card, the broad oval.” Show how the second names a card for someone not using colour or the same view.
  4. Child try · 7 min. Child chooses a paper garden, toy map or story stage route, then revises one vague step to name card, place and return pocket for a chosen audience/access route.
  5. Check · 4 min. Adult selects PATH after hearing only “the curvy one.” Child checks A's two-curved-lines label and repairs the phrase if needed; no child must touch a card.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Child identifies one extra word that made the direction clearer; this is clarity evidence, not a claim of actual audience success.
