Goal: make a specific, low-stakes request to an approved adult in a fictional rehearsal; AC9HPFP02 and help-seeking subsection of AC9HPFP05, both partial. Prepare: Source A, help route, privately confirm the school-approved adult roles.

  1. Settle · 3 min. Explain the adult roles are filled by the school, never guessed from the public page. Offer watch, point, speak, AAC or pass; no personal story is requested.
  2. Read · 4 min. Read Ivo's full Source A. Ask which words name the needed object and which words ask for help.
  3. Model · 5 min. Adult puppet says a vague “Help” then “Could you help me find the blue story card?” Model the second as answerable, without pretending an actual adult helped a child.
  4. Try · 7 min. Use Day 11 A/B/C on learner cards. Rehearse one specific ask using a class-owned item and the locally approved adult role, or identify it from the story privately.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Offer a different plain class item, a large blank folder. Ask what the puppet could request. Record the exact child-controlled words, cue and whether this was rehearsal.
  6. Close · 2 min. Say a real need can be raised with the school's approved adult now; respond to one under policy, never as a public performance.
