Target/code: order selected numbers on a 0–20 track and explain before/between/after; AC9MFN01. Prepare: P152 loose 9,10,11 and 16,17,18 cards, track; no target card pre-placed.
- Notice · 3 min. Read the three book-shelf labels 16, 18, 17 in mixed order. Ask which is in the middle after placing them, not by reading size of the cards.
- Model · 4 min. Point to track anchors 0, 10, 20. Place 9 and 11 either side of 10; explain 10 lies between 9 and 11.
- Guide · 5 min. Child places 16, 17, 18, then checks each follows the last by one count step. Offer numeral name reading without pointing to the target place.
- Independent route · 7 min. Use Day 152 A/B/C for a pretend shelf, route board or stage seats. Require both trios in order and one evidence-based relation.
- Evidence check · 4 min. Swap 17 and 18; ask which track step now breaks. If child can only recite aloud, place physical cards and ask for a position reason.
- Exit · 2 min. Child shows one numeral before 17 and one after. Follow up with a shorter 0–10 segment if order is not yet secure.
