Target/code: independently name length, capacity and mass and explain new direct comparisons; AC9MFM01. Prepare: unseen Check B, teacher-held preparation card, preflighted strips/cups/balance. Three stations may need extended local transition time.
- Welcome · 3 min. Say a new three-part task helps plan what to practise; it is not a speed or handwriting test.
- Access · 4 min. Confirm the actual equipment safely works out of the child's view. Give neutral read-aloud, broad labels or AAC. Do not announce which object wins.
- First comparison · 5 min. Child aligns the fresh paper strips and records the first end-based length decision before feedback.
- Independent response · 7 min. Child directs an adult to pour the verified cup pair and place the verified parcels on the balance, then names the attribute and observed reason for each. Routes A/B/C in Check B are equivalent access options.
- Boundary · 4 min. Ask which result came from aligned ends, which from spare space after transfer, and which from pan movement. A guess from cup/parcel appearance is not sufficient. Record adult content help separately.
- Close · 2 min. Give one next step after collecting all valid first responses, then offer Day 170 after-check practice. Defer any unclear physical station rather than score it.
Use the twenty optional swaps after the core or for a new day. The run-through reports desk inspection only. A local educator must check equipment, individual access and the Australian state/territory sequence before teaching.
