Goal: construct a three-part source-labelled Science display without turning a fictional or missing result into actual evidence. Proposed codes: AC9SFI01, AC9SFI03, AC9SFI04. Prepare: real dated log if available, evidence-display, Notebook N, Card 42.

  1. Choose source · 3 min. Confirm exact actual record/date and privacy permission. If missing, use N as an invented teaching example only.
  2. Read fields · 4 min. Find question, prediction timing, action, result and unknown. An absent earlier prediction is written NOT RECORDED, never guessed.
  3. Model · 5 min. Teacher displays N's question, story prediction and story result with MODEL labels; explains a story comparison is reading, not actual AC9SFI04 evidence.
  4. Child try · 7 min. Card 42 routes place the child's actual record in the six-box mat or label all N fields FICTIONAL. Keep actual date/source next to result; a photo remains PHOTO.
  5. Check · 4 min. Ask what the display leaves out (release, surface, support, hidden part or other condition specific to source). Child adds UNKNOWN rather than inventing it.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Save the display privately or use a de-identified teacher copy with consent.
