Learner choices

Target/codes: assemble A|A as two matching four-beat phrases and explain repeat across eight beat places; AC9AMUFD01, AC9AMUFC01. Prepare: B repeat aid, Practice B, two A cards.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Put one A on the left and ask what repeating the whole idea would need on the right.
  2. Model · 4 min. Make X – X X / X – X X, separating groups visibly. Optional reviewed K cue (playback review held) sounds the original plan; a silent card route remains complete.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Child compares local counts 1–4 in each group with a raised divider: same rest at local 2, same three events. Count eight beat places and six planned events.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child gives an intended use for an A|A paper gallery, fictional route card or chosen non-personal scene; a neutral adult can lay cards as directed.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Record the repeated phrase relation and count, not “child heard repetition” unless listening was actually offered and observed.
  6. Close · 2 min. Keep A|A; another distinct phrase can change the order next.
