Goal: continue the seven-day cycle across a weekend and place one possible action in a broad day-part. Proposed code: AC9MFM02. Prepare: Card 114, seven day cards, day-part cards, a moveable marker.
- Retrieve · 3 min. Show Friday/Saturday/Sunday in a different physical order; child restores the sequence.
- Model · 4 min. Move Sunday → Monday and name the latter as next week's Monday, not the Monday already passed.
- Guide · 5 min. Begin Thursday. Children walk a paper marker through Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, naming each step without requiring travel or standing.
- Independent try · 7 min. Child starts on Saturday, takes one and then two named-day steps, then chooses one fictional morning/lunchtime/afternoon/night-time action card and labels its part.
- Check · 4 min. Ask if “night time” always means sleep. Expect it is a broad part; people may be awake, working or resting, and no home disclosure is needed.
- Exit · 2 min. Child says what comes after Sunday. If Saturday/Sunday or cycle transition was lost, use three linked cards before the fresh check.
