Prepare once: Print A4 aids or use their complete linear/tactile alternatives. If physical art-making is approved, the adult selects clean broad blunt paper/card sheets and a large dry school-approved drawing tool. Adult handles any cutting; the lessons need no child cutting, glue, solvent, wet paint, sharp edge, small loose pieces, plant/animal material, rubbing from a real artwork or forced skin contact. Check allergies, sensory access, grip/stabilisation, ventilation, tool use and storage under current school rules. A child may place/mark an approved broad piece if willing, or direct an adult; record who actually did it. A no-material spoken/AAC/pointing design route meets the art-choice target but holds physical-process evidence. No printed texture proves how actual paper feels.
| Original source/aide | Exact invented facts | Evidence boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Fictional form source | One INVENTED FORK FORM has one broad vertical body and three rounded arms, leaving two clear notches. A second blank source box says REAL SOURCE: EMPTY. | The form is not a species, local observation, cultural motif or real maker's artwork. The real-source box stays empty without approval/provenance. |
| Contour and silhouette | Two versions of the SAME INVENTED FORK FORM: CONTOUR traces its outer edge, and FILLED SILHOUETTE fills the body. Neither has a hidden texture claim. | A visible graphic contrast; printing does not show a child's own mark process. |
| Gap between shapes | Two large invented shapes make a NARROW GAP in one arrangement and a WIDE GAP in another. The shapes remain the same; only their distance changes. | This is a negative-space art decision, not proof of an object's living feature or a measured distance. |
| Layer order | A broad CURVED PIECE and an ANGLED PIECE overlap. In Idea 1, curved is in front; in Idea 2, angled is in front. | A drawing of layers is not a real collage or a test of adhesion/strength. |
| Material candidates | BROAD PAPER and BROAD CARD are candidate names. Their actual bending, tactile quality, weight and suitability are UNKNOWN UNTIL APPROVED REAL INSPECTION. | The page is not a Science material test or an approval to touch/use either. |
| Art choice record | Blank idea/intended viewer, two visual options/choice, actual maker/material route, willing viewer/next question. | Intention, observed physical process and audience action stay distinct. |
Optional real living source: The separate Science teacher may have a safe approved actual plant view or authorised local photo. If a child independently chooses to refer to it in art, record the actual source/view/date and the child-seen feature; use the real source slot. Never supply an invented leaf, animal feature, species or growth outcome from these geometry pages. A child can make entirely imaginary art without a living source.
Optional actual art process: In Week 6, adult can offer large pre-cut clean paper/card pieces and a stable base. Child, if approved and willing, may place a broad piece in front of/behind another, draw a contour or direct an adult. No adhesive is required; a temporary arrangement is an artwork if the child makes a deliberate choice and can communicate its idea. Record who placed/marked each part, what the child intended, and what is actually visible. Photograph, storage and display require local permission; a neutral adult note can preserve the choice without imaging a child. Do not claim material properties from the printed candidate names.
Real artwork and culture: AC9AVAFE01 requires an authorised encounter with an actual work/maker/context; geometric prompt pages do not supply one. Follow the source/authority slot, particularly for First Nations works. AC9AVAFP01 requires actual willing audience sharing, not a puppet rehearsal or a plan. A private share is valid if it happens and is recorded with consent; passing is valid participation without audience evidence.
Held checks: Day 25 Paper Fan Form and Day 30 Robot Postcard are fresh invented sources. Do not rehearse their exact shape constraints before the child's first response. The teacher key is public and separate.
