Goal: share a bounded same-feature/different-material claim with source and one unknown. Proposed codes: AC9SFU03 (actual only if sourced), AC9SFI03, AC9SFI05. Prepare: actual approved records if present or L/M MODEL, ask/source/explain mat, Card 139.

  1. Choose source/privacy · 3 min. Use a consented private actual class record or clearly marked L/M fiction; no child photos or public upload.
  2. Read M · 4 min. Hear the broad false rule and compare with L's card counterexample in its invented note.
  3. Adult model · 5 min. State only “In L, both B and C are reported ribbed, but the maker reports different materials”; name MODEL.
  4. Child share · 7 min. Card 139 routes communicate feature, material identity source, counterexample and unknown to a chosen adult/willing peer.
  5. Listener · 4 min. Record actual response only if it occurred; otherwise NO ACTUAL LISTENER RESPONSE. A rehearsal line is not feedback.
  6. Exit · 2 min. Save child-controlled explanation and source labels, not an improvement score.
