Invitation: “What belongs on your page: picture, words, space, or another idea?”
Begin with actual work or a new one. The child's intention can change.
Child tries a wordless version or directs exact wanted words; independent literacy is not a criterion. Adult labels their scribing operation.
Try a genuinely made placement/space change if wanted. “Want this here, elsewhere, or out?” Child may intentionally leave an area empty or use deliberate chance.
Inspect the result against the maker's current purpose. An unread title does not invalidate a visible idea; a title alone does not make an unmade picture exist.
Keep one version/both/no version/later. Record chosen work, words or none, and operator.
A · Wordless picture and space: Make/direct an own image with chosen empty space. Try a genuinely made different spacing only if wanted; no text required.
B · Exact optional words and placement: Choose a short own phrase, invented word or no words; adult scribes only wanted exact text where directed, or child writes if chosen. Child chooses whether it stays.
C · One crowded or sparse trial: Choose a full, sparse or deliberately experimental composition on a new broad area. Make/direct an actual trial and inspect through view or literal description; no intention inferred from an accident.
Notice/next: if literacy effort has displaced making, remove that demand and offer one actual visual feature. Accept deliberate chance when owned; do not invent an intention afterward.
