# Two fresh public Music form checks

Both can be answered with print, broad tactile cards, AAC, pointing or a neutral scribe. No sound, speed, speech or audience is required. A neutral adult reads the full public key but cannot point out matching or place a final card. Keep the educator key separate. Save the child's first full response before teaching from it.

## Check Return 1 · Spot the exact return

Use [Return 1 SVG](check/return-1.svg) or [PDF](check/return-1.pdf). Pitch key: **L = low; H = high** in this invented score. Three sections of two events are printed:

| OPENING | DIFFERENT | RETURN |
| --- | --- | --- |
| H H | L H | H H |

Which section brings the opening back *exactly and in order*? Point to at least one mark that makes the middle different. What does the paper not prove about an actual sound or listener? The child need not play or hear it.

## Check Return 2 · Build the final pair

Use [Return 2 SVG](check/return-2.svg) or [PDF](check/return-2.pdf). This time A and B label two **invented electronic source recipes**, not section names: **A = circle, B = striped square**. The six-place score has OPENING **A B**, DIFFERENT **B B**, and two blank RETURN places. Put one A/B card in each blank place so the opening comes back exactly in order. Show the whole six-card score, point to a middle difference, and give your own musical idea or say what the paper leaves unknown. No candidate audio is needed.
