Learner choices

Target/codes: Attribute Mira’s own reason to Mira and distinguish it from visible features on A/B; AC9HSFS03, AC9HSFS04 and AC9HSFS05 partial, AC9HSFK03 fictional concept rehearsal only.

  1. Settle/purpose · 3 min. Name the invented source and the question; no personal disclosure or actual-place claim is needed.

  2. Read source · 4 min. Read source C exactly: Mira’s note says the shaded bench is special to Mira because Mira likes to sit there and read when visiting. Point to bench on A and B.

  3. Model inquiry · 5 min. Ask: “Can A alone tell us Mira likes reading?” No. Compare map feature with Mira’s attributed words.

  4. Child response · 7 min. Child gives a two-source statement: A locates bench; Mira C gives one person’s reason. Add one unknown about another person.

  5. Check/respond · 4 min. Listen for “everyone likes reading.” Reread “to me” and ask whose voice is represented.

  6. Exit · 2 min. Tomorrow Theo adds a different use; no family disclosure is needed.

Next move: If the child cites a map as a feeling source, separate printed label from named note. See learner routes and worked swaps.
