Target/codes: arrange a two-panel fictional image so a viewer has a child-chosen viewing path; AC9AVAFD01 and AC9AVAFC01. Prepare: two-panel path, optional offline panel switch, large blank rectangles.
- Welcome · 3 min. A story image can change from one panel to another. The viewer needs a path but may not follow the one we imagined.
- Model · 4 min. Point to NOTICE then ASK across, then the same blank panels down. Trace an intended path with a finger/voice, without claiming either layout is always easier for everyone.
- Try together · 5 min. Child directs the adult to read left-to-right or top-to-bottom. Adult follows and asks what visual cue could help them find the first panel; do not preassign a right answer.
- Child choice · 7 min. Child creates or directs two simple invented scenes for a parcel-sorting station, imaginary ferry dock or own fictional place: first something is noticed, then a question is brought to a chosen adult or helper. They choose panel route and a non-official visual cue such as a small number or linking line. No safety outcome is claimed.
- Notice · 4 min. Record child-selected first panel, cue and intended viewer path. If a real willing viewer checks it, note their exact route; otherwise say untested intention.
- Close · 2 min. “I hope my viewer begins at ___ because ___.”
