Goal: retell C's beginning/problem/action/ending, then adapt one detail while keeping the new version explicitly fictional. Proposed codes: AC9EFLE02, AC9EFLE03, AC9EFLE05, AC9EFLY05. Prepare: C story, four broad scene slots, Card 198.
- Oral/print · 3 min. Clap or mark the spoken parts of “Mira” if locally appropriate; adult handles rich story print.
- Read · 4 min. Read all four C scenes in order and allow a reread on request, noting whether one occurred.
- Model · 5 min. Place map goal, hidden label, Mira's search/replace, and puppet finding tent in four slots. Say what the story actually states versus a child's invented thought about Mira.
- Child try · 7 min. Child chooses puppet theatre, paper map or picture-book route on Card 198; retells all four source events by chosen mode, then changes one element such as the place label or helper in a clearly labelled new story.
- Check · 4 min. Offer “Mira never found the label.” Child locates Scene 3 and repairs the retell. Do not treat a creative adaptation as a source-accurate recall without marking the changed detail.
- Exit · 2 min. Record one child thought about the problem or ending as their thought, not an event in the text; retain retell/adaptation separately.
