  1. Welcome · 3 min. Explain this new paper music puzzle guides the next lesson, with no sound or speed requirement.
  2. Access · 4 min. Present HIGH LOW LOW HIGH across numbered places 1–4, by print, raised rails or neutral read-aloud. Do not name the three joins.
  3. Independent plan · 5 min. Child compares place 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 3 to 4 separately.
  4. Child response · 7 min. Save the first complete ordered three-card direction answer and explanation by cards, AAC, drawing, pointing or neutral scribe.
  5. Self-check · 4 min. Child traces all four pitch marks and three gaps without an adult placing a solution.
  6. Close · 2 min. Later consult the separate key; after-check swaps use unrelated sources.
