# Exact text and tactile alternatives for all eight A4 pages

Use broad paper or raised-line cards fixed on a table; avoid small loose pieces. Read left to right by number and top to bottom by row. A neutral adult can read or place only what the child directs. Colour and outlines carry no extra musical information. The check alternatives state the brief without supplying its answer.

## Four pulse places

**File:** `print/four-pulse.svg` / `print/four-pulse.pdf`.
**Exact content:** Four equal numbered boxes, each with X. This is an original pulse plan, not evidence of timed sound.

**Tactile alternative:** Fix two aligned raised four-cell strips. Upper X cards stay. Put four broad REST cards below; child directs one X after hearing the brief, without an adult hint.

**Limit:** Silent cards can demonstrate a planned musical idea, not heard tempo or accent, real-time coordination or audible performance. Only an actual willing person receiving the work supplies limited audience-sharing evidence.
