Goal: privately share an honest material observation or labelled model reading and one next question. Proposed codes: AC9SFU03, AC9SFI03, AC9SFI05. Prepare: source handover, actual consented dated record if any or D/E, Card 119.

  1. Source/privacy · 3 min. Choose genuine class record with consent or FICTIONAL MODEL. Teacher listener is enough; no child image/location shared.
  2. Order · 4 min. Lay SOURCE, PRIOR PREDICTION IF REAL, EXACT MARKS, CLAIM, UNKNOWN in sequence.
  3. Model · 5 min. Adult gives D-only example: invented dark paper patch, plastic visible drops, water destination unknown, safe next check needed.
  4. Child share · 7 min. Card 119 routes communicate exact evidence/limit by speech, AAC, sign, pointing, drawing or adult-directed scribe; record actual independence/prompt.
  5. Feedback · 4 min. Log actual listener response only if it occurred; otherwise NO ACTUAL LISTENER RESPONSE. A rehearsal line is not feedback.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Keep private handover and next safe question, not a child-growth score.
