Target/codes: compose an original image with one size/crop/open-space choice and one surface-mark choice, then revise one feature after inspecting it; AC9AVAFD01, AC9AVAFC01. Prepare: D image plan, E marks, F few/many, broad fixed paper.
- Welcome · 3 min. Offer invented prompts: a paper tool box, travelling library card or water refill reminder. A child may invent another non-personal context.
- Model · 4 min. Adult makes a small oval in one frame and a sparse mark region, then increases oval size only. Say which feature changed and what stayed.
- Try together · 5 min. Child directs an alternate one-feature revision using cards; adult names the child's decision without saying the revised work is better.
- Child choice · 7 min. Child makes or directs their own two-feature image, then can keep or revise one feature. Cleared physical materials are optional; paper direction remains valid idea evidence.
- Notice · 4 min. Save before/after if permitted and child's stated intention. Do not turn a functional prompt into a rule about what art must do.
- Close · 2 min. Ask whether the child would like this work available for an actual willing audience next time; a no is enough.
