Goal: gather up to three separate comparable actual observations and log any changed condition. Proposed codes: AC9SFU03, AC9SFI01, AC9SFI02, AC9SFI03. Prepare: one approved broad practice surface with three separate large dry marks, clean broad cloth areas, same adult, repeat-record, Card 37.

  1. Preflight · 3 min. Adult verifies three safe separated marked areas, material label or UNKNOWN, dry state, table/access and cleaning plan. Stop if unsuitable.
  2. Predict · 4 min. Child predicts likely after-mark for each or one shared prediction before any wiping; adult records timing.
  3. Model · 5 min. Teacher shows three blank trial rows and how to note if adult pressure or cloth area differs; Model V remains FICTIONAL.
  4. Child try · 7 min. Adult makes one gentle pass on each of three separate marks, one at a time, if safe. Child views or hears attributed report; record actual after-mark for Trial 1/2/3 individually, including NOT TESTED where a try stops.
  5. Check · 4 min. Child says whether three actual results are alike/different in these tries. If fewer than three comparable actual records, mark INSUFFICIENT COMPARABLE OBSERVATIONS.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Save dated unaltered rows, including unexpected outcomes.
