Teacher copy · prompts and answer keys

Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.

Every session is 3 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 4 + 2 = 25 minutes. Prepare broad four-step sound/wait idea and two aligned six-beat rows or exact descriptions/raised equivalents. A local idea 1–4 maps shared 1–4; B waits shared 1–2 then copies local idea 1–4 at shared 3–6. A is done at 5–6. Copy every sound/wait decision, not source identity, pitch/level or social role. Windows overlap 3–4; simultaneous sounds only at two active marks. Starting an idea means its window begins; a first wait is not an audible entry.

Optional actual Music making: locally review/preview two familiar short quiet sources, exact technique/space/willing makers and stop/access; keep each source fixed within take. Rehearse A alone, B alone with its two initial waits, then a six-beat combined trial only by choice at comfortable adult-guided shared pace. Child can make one part, direct two willing adults, use silent readers or pass; no forced simultaneous skill, tempo, voice or body target. Record intended score versus actual maker/support/accessible rhythm/entry/timing/aural evidence. Adult sound is adult performance, silent plan is not performance. One further short try optional.

Actual supplied work/source is honest computer-created author model; narrow FE01 only after actual encounter/observed child response. Broader appropriate real sources needed. Fresh pages/key closed until Days 175/180 before later practice; integrated checks stay separate. Let children choose/make/enjoy/rehearse/share; teacher evidence notes follow activity.

Week 35 · Day 171 · Meet Here Comes Another

Target/codes: encounter actual work/source and notice a later copied rhythm; partial FD01/FC01, narrow FE01 conditional. Prepare: model, source, full purpose, invitation A/chosen exact access.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “One idea. Another maker starts a little later.” Offer actual score/source/exact description, separately cleared optional sound or pass.
  2. Model · 4 min. Read accurate creator/type/purpose: original computer-created SubjectNest teaching model, made to help children try tiny delayed rhythm echoes. A's four choices sound/wait/sound/sound; B has two initial waits then same four.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Read each shared beat A then B and compare each local idea step two places later. Ask “What stays the same? When does B begin?” Optional cleared model listening with score, never claimed human performance.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child selects a part/place, directs an exact read and offers an observation/question about actual source/purpose. “What could someone try?” Accept own proposal/no purpose/pass, no expected feeling.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save actual encounter/route/observed child response/support. A card display alone is not responding; silent access does not prove hearing/timing/playing.
  6. Close · 2 min. “Tomorrow make your own little idea.” Private keeping/pass and no cultural/family testimony.

Week 35 · Day 172 · Choose a four-step idea

Target/codes: create one complete sound/wait idea for a later echo; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: own score, broad four-choice strip/exact words; invitation B.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Choose four little sound-or-wait choices.” Offer invented two-picture/puppet-arrival/music-alone purpose, direct-adult/silent/reviewed source/private/pass.
  2. Model · 4 min. Adult idea sound/wait/wait/sound, local 1,4. Read each choice once over four comfortable shared beats; A then waits done at 5–6. Put model aside.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Child directs four broad choices and reads them in order. A wait is a musical decision, not a requirement for still body/silent person.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child chooses an own idea with one to three planned short sounds or own accessible open alternative, title/use or not stated. Read or try the four-beat idea with a reviewed source/direct adult/silent reader; no need to add B today.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save complete idea/own choices/support separately from actual maker/timing. Unmade sound is a plan; child's preference is not assigned emotion.
  6. Close · 2 min. Keep the idea private or choose another next time; no instrument/prop purchase.

Week 35 · Day 173 · Copy it, starting later

Target/codes: copy all four decisions two shared beats later; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: copy-later, own idea, aligned rows/local mapping; invitation C.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Same idea. Start B after two waits.” Child chooses exact graphic/raised/word/direct-adult access.
  2. Model · 4 min. A local 1,4 at shared 1,4 becomes B local 1,4 at shared 3,6. Compare A 1→B 1, A 2→B 2, A 3→B 3, A 4→B 4 including waits. Different source identity is allowed.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Adult copies one wait incorrectly; child finds/restores corresponding decision later. No count-only check; remove worked example before own piece.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child builds a complete delayed B copy of own A, keeps two initial B waits/A done 5–6, then reads or rehearses B alone first. Optional combined reviewed making only if wanted; direct two adults/silent readers valid.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save exact four correspondences. Same event count alone insufficient. Windows overlap even if marks never coincide; no-sound copy is composition, not actual performance.
  6. Close · 2 min. Child chooses a favourite shared place or stop. No learner labelled fast/slow/first/second in rank.

Week 35 · Day 174 · Two arrivals in my tiny piece

Target/codes: make/use an own six-beat echo for a playful chosen purpose; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: own score, original broad two-picture/imaginary puppet or music alone; invitation D.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Two pictures, two arrivals—or music by itself?” Child chooses purpose/roles or no story/private/pass; no real possessions required.
  2. Model · 4 min. Adult uses original dot pictures with idea local 1,3 copied later, proposed second arrival and reviewed/silent read. “This is my proposed use.” Equal event counts do not prove actual people found roles fair.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Ask willing makers/readers what role they choose; adult may play both on direction. Rehearse first part/second part separately before any combined option.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child chooses own idea/delayed copy, title/use and one short quiet reviewed trial or silent read. Combined making highly optional, one further try optional. Keep time for enjoyment/preference.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save proposed use and actual willing maker/response/support separately. A plan cannot prove actor arrival, listener meaning or fair-turn outcome.
  6. Close · 2 min. Keep favourite/private/share later by choice. Fresh pages held; no performance tomorrow required.

Week 35 · Day 175 · Fresh Echo 1: which copy fits?

Target/codes: independently identify exact delayed rhythm correspondence in fresh equal-count pair; partial AC9AMUFD01. Prepare: public Echo 1, fresh page, neutral raised/word mapping; key closed.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Which B copies every A choice later?” Offer neutral AAC/sign/word/mark/direct-adult/rest/pass; separate from integrated Day 175.
  2. Access · 4 min. Read complete new P/Q rows/local positions and public rule neutrally; orient mapping but do not point to matches/classify/answer. No matching audio.
  3. Independent plan · 5 min. Child chooses exact copy and shows all four A→B local correspondences. Save first answer before hints.
  4. Child response · 7 min. Ask which choices differ in other B, what holds between plans, where windows/planned sounds overlap and what paper cannot prove. Child can direct answer marks rather than speech/touch.
  5. Self-check · 4 min. Compare corresponding decisions independently; preserve first/self-revision/support separately. Pass/unavailable access unobserved, arrange another opportunity.
  6. Close · 2 min. Use educator key afterward. Today's examples/bridges After Check only, not replacement independent evidence.

Week 36 · Day 176 · One part, then another, then both if wanted

Target/codes: rehearse own rhythm copy/entry with scoped actual making or planning; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: maker aid, own score, row cover/exact familiar source review; invitation E.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Try A, try B. Both only if you wish.” Choose exact reviewed sound, one-part maker/direct-two-adults/silent reader/rest/pass.
  2. Model · 4 min. Preview sources/stop/access; adult rehearses idea local 1,3,4 then B initial two waits/copy. Comfortable pointer shared 1–6, no fixed required speed.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Child directs one part while other rests; verify later start/four choices through chosen access. Adjust cue/pointer access without forcing simultaneous making.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Learner tries own one-part or optional combined six-beat piece once, may direct adult makers/silent read and choose one further try/preference. Keep source fixed within take.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Record actual maker/support, observed entry/rhythm scope/beat access separately from plan. Adult realization is adult performance; score-only route is not performance evidence.
  6. Close · 2 min. Choose one place to keep/try or stop. No fine-motor, independence or speed target added.

Week 36 · Day 177 · Tell a maker your idea

Target/codes: respond to actual source purpose and communicate own complete rhythm/entry instruction; partial FD01/FC01, narrow FE01 conditional. Prepare: source, own four choices, maker aid/willing or model receiver; invitation F.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Tell a maker your four choices and later start.” Offer exact words/marks/AAC/sign/neutral scribe; actual source access or pass.
  2. Model · 4 min. Revisit documented author purpose: model later copied rhythm for children's own tiny pieces. Purpose is intention, not achieved learning/show/community effect. Adult says practice idea 1,4, then B waits two beats/copy all four.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Compare complete four-choice/entry instruction with unclear “do that later”; child directs clearer own words. A paper receiver is labelled MODEL, not actual feedback.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child encounters/responds to actual source if chosen, gives own score/instruction to willing maker/reader or privately rehearses. Actual maker may try reviewed short rhythm or silently read; simultaneous sound optional.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save source-backed response, own instruction and actual receiver action/support separately. Model response isn't actual child/peer performance; wider people/community inquiry needs varied approved actual sources.
  6. Close · 2 min. Child keeps credit/instruction/private choice. No family/cultural knowledge demanded.

Week 36 · Day 178 · Change my idea, keep the later copy

Target/codes: revise own idea and propagate every changed decision to later copy while holding delay; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: first/copy own score, broad replacements/exact words; invitation G.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Try another idea. Give B the same new choices.” Private/show/music-alone choice, silent or reviewed one-part/combined optional.
  2. Model · 4 min. Adult local idea 1,4 becomes 1,3. A shared 4 sound→wait/3 wait→sound; B shared 6 sound→wait/5 wait→sound. Initial B waits/A outer done/two-beat delay fixed. This is coordinated plan revision, not live proof.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Child spots one missing propagated change, directs exact restoration. Adult model away before own creation.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Save own first version, revise one or more idea decisions and update matching B positions two places later. Read or try chosen parts/optional combination with fixed reviewed sources; prefer first/new/both.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Save all removed/added A/B choices and held mapping; count may change in open making. Actual timing/sound/receiver response separate.
  6. Close · 2 min. Child chooses version to keep/share; no physical model/fairness outcome or expected emotion inferred.

Week 36 · Day 179 · A willing maker or audience

Target/codes: optionally communicate/share own echo and encounter approved actual wider source; partial FD01/FC01, FP01/wider FE01 conditional. Prepare: own score/instruction, willingness/pass, source gate, exact review if live.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Offer private keeping, actual willing reader/maker/listener, silent sharing or reviewed one-part/optional combined making, approved real source or pass.
  2. Model · 4 min. Rehearse “Would you like to see/try our piece?” Pretend yes/no labelled MODEL. If varied approved real work used, identify actual maker/context/purpose source accurately; otherwise wider inquiry held.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Agree actual roles/medium/access/stop and full rhythm/entry instruction; accept no. No recording/upload/public solo.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child shares own exact score or reviewed realization with actual willing recipient, directs adult makers or keeps private. Ask “What did you notice?” only if wanted; another interpretation welcome.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Record actual maker/received instruction/audience receipt/exact permitted words after events, actual child performance separately. Invitation/imaginary reaction is not sharing result.
  6. Close · 2 min. Respect withdrawal/privacy/ownership, final fresh page hidden. No pressured participation or cultural/family disclosure.

Week 36 · Day 180 · Fresh Echo 2: repair B only

Target/codes: independently repair exact delayed B copy while preserving A/initial waits; partial AC9AMUFD01/FC01. Prepare: public Echo 2, new page, complete given/neutral raised mapping; key closed.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Keep A. Repair its later B copy.” Neutral AAC/sign/words/direct-adult/marks/rest/pass; separate from integrated checks/practice.
  2. Access · 4 min. Read full given A/B rhythms, initial waits/outer done and rules neutrally. Question cells undecided. No matching sound/classified change/solution hint.
  3. Independent plan · 5 min. Child keeps all A/initial B waits, chooses every Bidea decision exactly corresponding two shared beats later. Save first complete answer before support.
  4. Child response · 7 min. Show removed/added/held choices, windows versus planned simultaneous marks and paper limits; own musical reason optional. Neutral adult records only child directions.
  5. Self-check · 4 min. Compare all four corresponding steps independently; preserve first/self-revision/support. Pass/inaccessible/unobserved is not failed listening, offer another opportunity.
  6. Close · 2 min. Key after first work, today's variants/bridges later practice. No required actual performance or full-standard claim.
