Offer any route on any day, combine them or pause. They are access and interest choices, not fixed learning styles or diagnoses. A broad secured tactile paper line is not a real fabric/card sample. No child must touch, smell, handle glue, speak publicly or identify materials from an unverified drawing. Use the learner's established AAC/sign system; adult scribes exact child-directed wording. All actual work follows the adult safety and provenance gate. For check days, use these practice routes after the first independent response.
Day 131 · Pictured regions
- A · see/mark: Point to K's plain-looking left region, count six drawn lines at right and place PICTURE ONLY beside both.
- B · hear/say: Hear K described left to right; dictate “the picture shows lines, but the material is unknown.”
- C · choose/direct: Use two broad fixed PLAIN DRAWING / SIX LINES cards and choose MATERIAL VERIFIED / MATERIAL UNKNOWN; direct an adult to place UNKNOWN.
Day 132 · Reported components
- A · see/mark: Link invented sign backing to A and patch to B in L, then leave the joining layer unlabelled.
- B · hear/say: Hear L's maker note and say “the fictional maker reports card and fabric; the picture alone did not tell me.”
- C · choose/direct: Sequence MODEL / MAKER SAYS CARD / MAKER SAYS FABRIC / JOIN UNKNOWN with broad secured or AAC labels.
Day 133 · Actual feature and material source
- A · see/record: If a real approved sample is directly viewed, sketch only the feature actually visible and enter material source separately; otherwise mark MODEL/NOT OBSERVED.
- B · hear/say: Dictate own actual directly accessed feature when it happened, or quote a neutral attributed ADULT REPORT; do not change report to “I saw”.
- C · choose/direct: Select DIRECT / ADULT REPORT / MODEL, then VISIBLE RIBS / NO VISIBLE RIBS / UNCLEAR / NOT VIEWED and a verified material label or UNKNOWN.
Day 134 · One-property sort
- A · see/place: Move broad real viewed sample cards once under VISIBLE RIBS or NO VISIBLE RIBS; use UNCLEAR for missing views and mark a different-material same-feature counterexample if sourced.
- B · hear/say: Hear L's A/B/C note and verbally sort its reported appearances, naming MODEL and C as a ribbed paper-based counterexample.
- C · choose/direct: Direct an adult to put fixed A/B/C model tokens in two bins by visible feature, then choose SAME FEATURE / DIFFERENT MATERIAL for B and C.
Day 135 · New practice only after the check
- A · see/mark: On a fresh invented two-colour shape picture, circle the two coloured regions and leave the material box blank.
- B · hear/say: Hear “one rectangle has a white half and a striped half”; say what is drawn and what maker source is missing.
- C · choose/direct: Choose PICTURE REGIONS SHOWN and MATERIAL NOT VERIFIED, then direct an adult to ask a neutral maker question.
Day 136 · A neutral source question
- A · see/write: Put a question mark between a drawn sample and a maker/source icon; write or direct “What is this made from, and how do you know?”
- B · hear/say: Ask N's fictional maker question and repeat the answer with “the maker said” rather than “I felt”.
- C · choose/direct: Select QUESTION / MAKER ANSWER / I NOTICED cards; choose PASS/REPEAT without explaining if a real respondent declines.
Day 137 · Two source fields
- A · see/record: Use separate boxes for a genuinely visible feature and a verified maker/product material label; leave one blank if unavailable.
- B · hear/say: Say one source sentence: “I directly noticed …; the maker reported …” only if both occurred, or “in fictional L …”.
- C · choose/direct: Choose DIRECT FEATURE / ADULT REPORT / MODEL and MATERIAL KNOWN / MATERIAL UNKNOWN labels, then direct exact scribing.
Day 138 · Prediction and actual view
- A · see/mark: Before a new approved view, record MAY SEE RIBS or MAY NOT SEE RIBS; after, mark the exact visible result or NOT VIEWED.
- B · hear/say: Dictate an earlier prediction and later observation only if both genuinely happened; otherwise say CANNOT COMPARE.
- C · choose/direct: Use broad BEFORE / AFTER / MISSING slots and SAME / DIFFERENT / UNCLEAR / CANNOT COMPARE choices; adult preserves timing/source.
Day 139 · Bounded share
- A · see/mark: Fill FEATURE, MATERIAL SOURCE, COUNTEREXAMPLE, UNKNOWN on the claim mat and show to a chosen private listener.
- B · hear/say: Tell a willing adult “In this source, two samples show ribs, but they have different reported materials”; include MODEL or actual date.
- C · choose/direct: Sequence AAC or secured tactile SOURCE / FEATURE / MATERIAL LABEL / COUNTEREXAMPLE / NEXT QUESTION; record actual listener response only if one occurred.
Day 140 · New practice only after the check
- A · see/place: Sort fresh fictional large symbol panels by dotted/not dotted appearance, then leave all actual-material labels UNKNOWN.
- B · hear/say: Hear a new paper note with two same-looking surfaces and different stated maker labels; report the note's limits.
- C · choose/direct: Put broad SAME DRAWN PROPERTY and DIFFERENT REPORTED MATERIAL cards side by side, then ask what actual sample/source would be needed.
