Teacher copy: This page may include teaching prompts or answer keys. Answer keys in this public library can be viewed by anyone. Give learners a clean prompt, use checks as formative evidence, and change a case locally when prior access matters.

No purchase, print, screen, colour identification, plant touch, material texture touch, family disclosure, body movement or public sharing is needed. A child can specify an exact visual mark plan by speech, sign, AAC, pointing to broad school-approved options or eye gaze; adult reads it back. Record PLAN ONLY unless a physical artwork was actually made. Locally approved large fixed raised lines are optional and offered only if welcomed. The offline mark lab is never a required route or storage system.

If physical making is approved, an adult prepares clean large blunt paper/card and locally approved dry tools. Adult controls cutting, glue, small parts and access/storage. Do not require rubbing, pressure, wet paint, unknown textures or photography. A child may direct an adult to make the marks and retain authorship of the decision while the record states the adult handled the tool. The eight A4 aids are visual PDFs, not tagged PDFs; use exact linear text or locally checked assistive formats where needed.

Week 13's Mika/Sol/Ren story is internal fiction, not a child's actual family or a model all families must follow. Its cardboard boat and paper flag are source-stated; colour, surface lines and exact shape are illustrator choices unless the story explicitly says otherwise. No child's personal album, household item or birth place is requested. A fictional artwork cannot support a HASS family-content claim.

For Week 14, only a school-approved known-safe plant/viewpoint can supply a real visible feature. Follow the integrated Science safety plan: no tasting, smelling, touching, collecting or identifying unknown plants; consider allergies, weather, sun, pests and access. Record plant/source, date, viewpoint and access before comparing any real views. If none is available, use the clearly labelled fictional paper plant and keep Science observation not observed. A different pen weight, drawing scale or imagined flower is an art decision, not a real plant change.

Actual artwork rights, cultural authority and willingness to share use the source slot. A child's original work, photo, voice, name, family detail or completed record stays in school custody and never in the public repository. Keep held Checks U/V unseen until their days. Do not assign a fixed colour/texture meaning or imply the invented mark proves how a real surface feels.
