Learner choices

Target/codes: combine a chosen size or crop with one deliberate open area in an original fictional image; AC9AVAFD01, AC9AVAFC01. Prepare: D image plan, frames and large fixed shape cards, D practice.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. Invite a fictional purpose: a paper notice for a quiet reading corner, repair station or shared table. No actual school sign is made.
  2. Model · 4 min. Use a broad triangle that fills much of a frame while leaving a clear band. Name each decision without assigning a fixed meaning to size.
  3. Try together · 5 min. Child offers a different combination; adult lays out the two choices and asks what they intended to show.
  4. Child choice · 7 min. Child draws, arranges or directs an original frame. They may choose small/large, whole/part and a space to leave clear. Record their own purpose.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Compare the visible result with the child's intention. If a requested open region was covered, invite a revision rather than correct it for them.
  6. Close · 2 min. Put the image plan away. Tomorrow's fresh check uses a new shape and new constraint.
