No purchase needed. Each lesson can run with exact read-aloud descriptions, a child choosing verbally/by sign/AAC/eye gaze, and an adult repeating the plan for confirmation. It can run with no print, no screen or device, colour, paint, camera, scissors, glue, loose parts or child handling. A plan described but not made is logged PLAN ONLY, not physical making. Large fixed tactile outlines are optional if school-approved and welcomed by the child; they are not required. No touch is a full route.
The optional offline art-choice tool offers in-memory visual/text variations; it does not add a required device, saved learner data, held-check preview or verified viewer response.
If making is approved, adults prepare clean large blunt paper and locally approved dry crayons/pencils or fixed broad cards. Adults handle all cutting and assess allergies, sensory access, grip/positioning, storage and room movement. Avoid small detachable parts, unsafe sharp tools, wet paint or required colour sorting. Ask before sharing any work, especially a named child's work. No public uploading of child art, voice, photo, family details or health/safety disclosure.
The eight aids are listed with exact alternatives. All invented images are labelled fiction. “Made-up source” cannot become a real Week 9 science/maths observation or evidence of an actual community place. When a real object is used on Day 43, an educator records its actual source and date; a child chooses the art detail. Do not import the made-up tray counts as class data. A real maker work needs the rights/context slot. An actual willing audience and response need direct observation; an intended audience, puppet rehearsal or adult guess is different evidence.
If the child declines: offer observation, an exact description, a private plan, or a later opportunity. The child can pass on colour, physical contact, sharing or a source encounter without a penalty tied to access route. Offer school-approved adjustments without diagnosing or assigning a “learning style”. Record the specific goal and support so the next teacher can make a practical decision.
Teacher preparation: Keep Check Q and R sheets hidden until Days 45/50, with the separate key out of learner view. Print in greyscale once if desired: every diagram has a shape/mark/word cue. The PDF is a visual aid, not a tagged accessible document; use the exact linear reading in the text alternative or a locally tested format for a screen reader.
