All people, places and outcomes below are invented paper sources. The printed signs are original lesson marks, not official safety symbols. A child may pass, point, sign, use AAC, speak, draw or direct an adult. No personal story, physical contact, competitive race or object lending is required. Read source wording aloud; do not pretend a character line is a real child's statement.
Source A · Permission with a neutral class prop
Dialogue cards show a teacher-owned BIG SQUARE card and a BLANK CARD. Puppet Tavi asks: “May I use the BIG SQUARE card?” Puppet Noor answers: “Not now; I am still using it.” Tavi replies: “Okay. I will choose the BLANK CARD.” A second card has Noor ask: “May I put my card on the shared board?” Tavi answers: “Yes, there is space.” Noor replies: “Thank you.” These are two fictional rehearsals of seeking, denying, giving and respecting permission. The source does not require an actual child to lend anything or say yes.
Source B · Broad paper play lanes and stop space
The original play mat has LEFT LANE and RIGHT LANE, each a large START rectangle leading to a large FINISH rectangle. A separate PAUSE SPACE is outside both lanes. The class rule on the source is: “One maker moves a large soft object in one lane at a time; another waits outside that lane. A stop signal ends the turn.” It is a paper plan, not proof anyone moved safely. For an optional actual trial, a teacher checks a stable broad table/floor route, suitable large soft object, individual movement/access plan, clear distance and stop signal. A child may stay with paper, observe or stop at any time. Adults handle setup and any hazard.
Source C · Two fictional turn stories
Fair-rule cards give two separate statements. Mina: “I waited at PAUSE SPACE until the lane was clear. Then I had one turn.” Paz: “I moved my paper marker into the lane while Mina's turn was still happening.” On paper, Mina's sequence follows the printed one-at-a-time rule and Paz's sequence does not. This does not tell us how real children would act or whether a particular movement is safe for a real child.
Source D · A stop request changes the plan
On the stop/choice board, fictional Ren says: “Pause, please. I do not want to use that shared spot.” The adult in the paper story stops moving the marker, replies “Okay,” and offers a different blank spot. A real child's refusal needs no explanation, and a fictional adult response is not proof of real protection. For real school safety/help routes, use current local policy and the child's access plan.
Source E · Original sign/message cards
The paper sign bank has word-plus-outline cards ONE AT A TIME, PAUSE SPACE, ASK FIRST. A sign can remind a pretend user of a rule or question; it does not grant consent or verify safe access. The fictional visitor line is: “I want to try the paper lane. Which card tells me to ask first?” The answer from these printed words is ASK FIRST. Actual understanding and any physical result are unknown until observed in an approved setting.
Daily source/use register
| Day | Main source and target | Boundary |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A: ask, deny/give, accept the answer respectfully. | Fictional rehearsal; no actual personal object. |
| 2 | A+B: permission before a shared spot; optional individually suitable actual movement. | Paper space plan is not physical FM02 evidence. |
| 3 | B: opt-in gentle large-object roll/slide in one broad lane. | FM01/FM02/FM04 require actual observed safe activity. |
| 4 | B+C: one-at-a-time fair turn and “what happened” language. | A card judgment alone is not physical fair play. |
| 5 | Fresh Check A: new paper studio consent/turn source, source sheet. | Do not rehearse its labels, characters or layout. |
| 6 | E: sign/question; the sign never overrides permission. | Printed match, not real sign effectiveness. |
| 7 | B+D: stop/pause, choose another safe paper or actual route. | Respect a real no immediately; no child justification. |
| 8 | B+C: adapt a fair rule when two makers want a lane. | Movement evidence only after suitable actual play. |
| 9 | A+D+E: make a short respectful sign/permission script. | Intent and actual user response kept separate. |
| 10 | Fresh Check B: new paper gallery play source, source sheet. | Paper reasoning vs actual optional movement logged separately. |
Five-minute setup: choose the source page or its full text/tactile counterpart, arrange broad cards, prepare a quiet stop/opt-out route, and check local equipment/activity/access approval before offering actual movement. Keep checks covered until their days. Record date, exact child-controlled communication, access provided, adult content cues, and actual movement observed or not observed. Store real records privately.
