Read START, then one of A/B. A and B are possible endings, not a three-step sequence. Use broad raised frames, a thick fork line, two distinct sign cards and broad covers or removable ending cards. A neutral adult can build/operate while the child directs. No colour, independent reading, fine motor cutting, small loose piece or device is required.

Verbatim printed text in layout order: SUBJECTNEST · FOUNDATION MEDIA ARTS | Weeks 5–6 · original choice stories · paper route | A · ONE START, TWO ENDS | Choose A or B. These are possible endings. | START · MIDDLE | A · LEFT | B · RIGHT | Read START → A, or START → B. | Original resource · CC BY 4.0 · see source and access notes.
Tactile build: Present one broad START card and two separated ending cells. Put large named shapes at positions in the description. Let the child trace one raised path at a time. For signs, pair each distinctive outline with its ending. For reveal practice, cover both endings before choice, uncover only the selected cell, and reset. For I/J present only the unsolved source and read the brief without building a corrected path. A child may direct all placements and operations.

Evidence boundary: Text/tactile description or a static PDF can show a branch plan. An assembled selectable board requires actual broad physical pieces and child-owned decisions. Actual willing audience use must be observed and recorded separately. None of these routes proves camera/audio/digital production or a culturally authorised real-media encounter.
