# Prepare the exact practice materials

Use plain A4 paper, a thick pen and broad **drawn** icons or adult-cut cards large enough for local safety and access needs. A child can point, speak, sign, use AAC, direct an adult or draw marks; none must cut, handle loose pieces, hear sound or disclose a personal preference. The [print aids](print/TEXT-ALTERNATIVES.md) are reusable; their pale fills do not carry the answer. Put one source item beside one count mark. Reset a set before re-sorting it. All source sets below are **invented**, not observations of a real collection.

| Day | Exact supplied practice source | Given question or claim to test | Helpful aid |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 181 | P181: ten broad library-label pictures, **6 BOOK**, **4 MAP**. Mix face up. | Given: “In these ten supplied labels, which picture is more common?” | [sort mat](print/given-question-sort-mat.pdf) |
| 182 | P182: twelve paper garden-sign pictures, **5 SUN**, **7 CLOUD**. | Given: “Which sign picture has more in this packet?” | [one-to-one board](print/one-to-one-compare-board.pdf) |
| 183 | P183: ten fictional route-sign pictures: **2 BUS+STAR, 4 BUS+PLAIN, 1 BIKE+STAR, 3 BIKE+PLAIN**. These yield 6 BUS/4 BIKE and 3 STAR/7 PLAIN. | Given separately: “Which vehicle icon is more?” and “Which mark is more?” Use the same ten cards, reset between sorts. This says nothing about anyone's travel. | [two-way card sheet](print/two-question-picture-cards.pdf) |
| 184 | P184: eleven pretend theatre cue pictures, **8 TRIANGLE**, **3 CIRCLE**. | Given: “Which cue picture is more in the sheet?” | [sort mat](print/given-question-sort-mat.pdf) |
| 185 | Fresh Check A only; see child prompt and teacher-managed print. Do not use its source icons or quantities in practice or swaps. | Given in the check. | [Check A picture sheet](print/check-a-picture-sheet.pdf) |
| 186 | P186: fourteen broad blank paper boxes in a single source set; a separate claim card reads **15**. | “Does the claim card match the exact supplied boxes?” Recount without creating/removing a box. | [recheck mat](print/first-check-now-mat.pdf) |
| 187 | P187: **7** widely spaced identical paper dots in row A; **11** closely spaced identical dots in row B. | “Does the longer-looking row always have more here?” Pair or count the items. | [one-to-one board](print/one-to-one-compare-board.pdf) |
| 188 | P188: fictional display starts with **5** wide square stickers; **3** are added. Separate claim card reads **7** at the end. | “Does the shown result match a fresh add-to model?” Preserve the start and added sets. | [change-model mat](print/start-change-end-mat.pdf) |
| 189 | P189: fictional paper parcel starts with **8** broad tokens; **2** are visibly taken away. Separate claim card reads **5** left. | “Does the shown result match the remove model?” Put removed tokens in a named OUT area. | [change-model mat](print/start-change-end-mat.pdf) |
| 190 | Fresh Check B only; see child prompt and teacher-managed print. Do not use its source quantities or claim in practice or swaps. | Given in the check. | [Check B model sheet](print/check-b-model-sheet.pdf) |

**Source discipline:** The source is the supplied card/mark set for that task, not a claim about the wider library, weather, travel, stage or class. If a piece goes missing or is doubled, reset the source and recount; do not score a changed source as a child error. A pair comparison needs each object used once. Addition/removal needs a visible start and change, not an answer guessed from the printed claim.

**After each day:** Keep only anonymous educator notes such as “paired one-to-one”, “recited without tracking” or “checked by regrouping”. Store any actual child work privately under school policy, never in this public pack.
