Goal/codes: Select parts of actual rubbing/drawn paper for a new art arrangement. Partial AC9AVAFD01, AC9AVAFC01.
Prepare: Saved actual rubbing or broad drawn-paper substitute; impression-choice and blank backing; adult-only preparation tools.
- Invite and choose · 3 min. Show the child's paper, not a promised result. Ask, “Which part would you like in your picture?” Creature/place/pattern meanings are theirs.
- Model · 4 min. Adult selects one patch of their own paper, leaves another aside, and places it loosely. Say, “My choice shows this part; the other marks still exist on my paper.” Selection does not reveal the whole hidden master.
- Explore · 5 min. Child indicates two broad areas to keep. Adult marks borders and prepares patches safely on exact direction. With no material, describe the chosen patches and note they are unmade.
- Make/direct · 7 min. Child tries side-by-side and partly overlapping positions, then chooses one or a new broad arrangement. Loose work counts as arranged; attachment is optional. Ask which mark remains visible after overlap.
- Notice and next · 4 min. Record visible patch, position and reason/demonstration. Distinguish source paper marks, marks now covered by another piece, and unknown unobserved areas.
- Clear and close · 2 min. Adult handles unused offcuts/tools. Store broad patches with backing; mark ARRANGED, NOT ATTACHED or PLAN ONLY.
Look/listen for: child selection and placement, not a required number of patches or geometrical vocabulary. Return to one patch on two possible positions if helpful.
