Learner choices

Target/codes: compare a WIDE frame with a CLOSE crop around the same square and identify what is left out; AC9AMAFD01, AC9AMAFC01. Prepare: C crop frames, large crop window, C.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Lay a paper square and circle on the table; they are neutral invented tokens.
  2. Model · 4 min. Place wide border around both; then close border around square only. The circle remains on the table but outside the close frame.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Ask “What can the paper viewer see in each?” Allow exact oral/tactile frame descriptions.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child chooses one frame for a fictional “look at the square” card and explains what context is kept or omitted.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Check that a close crop was not misdescribed as destroying the circle; it is simply outside the selected view.
  6. Close · 2 min. Save both borders; a caption can point to one detail tomorrow.
