# Exact ACARA v9 / QCAA Queensland Prep Visual Arts crosswalk

The [official ACARA v9 workbook](https://www.australiancurriculum.edu.au/content/dam/en/curriculum/ac-version-9/downloads/curriculum-workbook.xlsx) is SHA-pinned to the local import in [source-snapshot.json](source-snapshot.json). The [QCAA Visual Arts v9 page](https://www.qcaa.qld.edu.au/p-10/aciq/version-9/learning-areas/p-10-the-arts/visual-arts), [Prep alignment PDF](https://www.qcaa.qld.edu.au/downloads/aciqv9/the-arts/curriculum/ac9_visual_arts_prep_as_cd.alignment.pdf) and [Prep non-performing Arts techniques and conditions](https://www.qcaa.qld.edu.au/downloads/aciqv9/the-arts/assessment/ac9_arts_non_perform_tc_prep.pdf) establish the Queensland Prep setting and practical response/safety conditions. QCAA gives possible conventions, processes and modes; it does not prescribe our fortnight. This is school-selected partial practice.

| Exact code | Workbook row | Area · subject · level | Verbatim official content description | This pack's sample and limit |
| --- | ---: | --- | --- | --- |
| AC9AVAFE01 | 21465 | The Arts · Visual Arts · Foundation Year | explore how and why the arts are important for people and communities | Optional Day 39 real rights-cleared maker work, with source-stated purpose/importance for particular people/community and a child's response. Invented strips cannot substitute. Hold when no cleared source/context exists. |
| AC9AVAFD01 | 21474 | The Arts · Visual Arts · Foundation Year | use play, imagination, arts knowledge, processes and/or skills to discover possibilities and develop ideas | Days 31–40 explore viewer path, image sequence, visual ambiguity, grouped repeat and optional safe process. A printed/digital plan is not proof of physical making. |
| AC9AVAFC01 | 21484 | The Arts · Visual Arts · Foundation Year | create arts works that communicate ideas | Days 34–35 and 37–40 offer child-authored two-panel/strip images, with exact intention and actual maker/handler recorded. An adult's demonstrated image is not the child's creation. |
| AC9AVAFP01 | 21493 | The Arts · Visual Arts · Foundation Year | share their arts works with audiences | Optional Day 39 private/willing real viewer and response. A puppet, rehearsal, intended viewer or browser preview alone is not actual audience sharing. |

Integrated [Week 8](../../../term-1/week-08-patterns-we-can-share.md) also uses **AC9MFA01**, official workbook row **17181**, Mathematics · Foundation Year, “recognise, copy and continue repeating patterns represented in different ways.” A child can express a repeat rule in visual art, but the mathematics teacher records unit recognition/continuation separately from art intention; this Visual Arts pack does not claim to assess the full maths description. Week 7's HPE and Digital Technologies safety/personal-data evidence likewise stays in the [integrated guide](../../../term-1/week-07-signs-and-safe-choices.md) and locally approved program. Our invented image is **not an official safety sign**.

The [two public checks](STUDENT-CHECKS.md) are formative, **not secure exams** or QCAA instruments. They do not prove a real safety decision, actual audience, physical material process, mathematical transfer, or real artwork encounter without separately observed events. No child must disclose a personal feeling, household detail, culture or unsafe event. This fortnight does not establish the entire Visual Arts achievement standard.

**Official-source erratum:** The first repeated QCAA alignment row prints `AC9ADVAFE01` with an extra **D**. Its own key/later row and the ACARA workbook use **AC9AVAFE01**. We use the verified code, not a fifth description.
