Goal/codes: develop an art mark that changes its visible appearance across a folded face; AC9AVAFD01/AC9AVAFC01 if made. Prepare: across a bend, prepared broad form or flat plan.

  1. Welcome · 3 min. “Could one mark travel across a paper bend?”
  2. Model · 4 min. Adult draws/directs one broad curved path across a flat spare fold line, then folds it if approved. A front view shows one section; a side view reveals another. Say the mark is part of one artwork, even though the view differs.
  3. Together · 5 min. Child chooses whether their own mark should stop before the bend or continue across it. Ask what a second view might add. A geometric fold diagram is not a test of independent spatial mathematics.
  4. Child art · 7 min. Child tries/directs a mark across one broad safe crease or describes exact sections on each face. They may revise where the line meets the bend. Keep their reason separate from actual physical fold behaviour.
  5. Notice · 4 min. Record continuity or deliberate break, mark placement, intended two-view effect and actual form if made. If a fold hides the intended feature, offer a fresh position choice.
  6. Close · 2 min. “My mark stops/continues at ___ so ___.”
