Learner choices

Target/codes: Attribute an individual's stated reason for finding the opening significant and link it to the timeline; AC9HSFS03, AC9HSFS04 and AC9HSFS05 partial, AC9HSFK02 conceptual rehearsal only.

  1. Settle/purpose · 3 min. People can find different things important; a child need not explain their own family event.
  2. Read source · 4 min. Read Mara's note C and place it beside B's opening/next-year pictures.
  3. Model inquiry · 5 min. “Mara says the opening matters to Mara because Kit let Mara choose the first story. Mara says she later drew a cover to remember it.” Do not generalise this reason.
  4. Child response · 7 min. Child names Mara as speaker, places the first choice and later cover on B, then shares one two-step source-labelled narrative with Mara's reason.
  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Record speaker, order and exact reason. If “everyone loved choosing” appears, ask whose words say that; only Mara's individual reason is given.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Finish “It mattered to Mara because ___; we do not know ___ about everyone else.”
