Day 47 · A real source has a date

Use a dated primary local source accurately and leave unsupported details out.

  1. Choose one small topic or source detail.
  2. Tell, write, type or direct one useful idea.
  3. Read it back, or ask for readback. Keep, change a bit or finish.

Example to hear: This listed Term 1 has nine weeks.

Pick a way in

Make a little calendar-source card using one verified R4 fact and an optional question.

Choose a locally relevant adult-checked primary notice using the local-example recipe, or use the provided calendar. Report one checked fact; no live availability assumption.

Receive the factual card in usual communication, choose one accurate detail and direct the report. Exact scribing permitted; use invented drawing alternative if dates are unsuitable.

Choose one short sitting; about 25–30 minutes is an author planning estimate, not a required dose or tested timing. Keep/pause/finish and a return later are valid. No purchase, outing, upload, account, private disclosure, recording, forced speech/eye-contact/movement or audience. Use established communication, sign/AAC, suitable enlarged print, keyboard or exact child-directed scribing as appropriate. Ask before touching/moving belongings; do not require handling real objects. Read rich text aloud or provide agreed exact text access: it is not automatic independent reading. No-print listening/composition alternatives keep meaning useful, but do not prove decoding. Adults record their own reading, phoneme cues, grapheme supply, spelling and physical marking separately. An actual oral report is oral; a picture+language text has actual stated components; an unwritten proposal is a plan. A scribe can preserve child composition while adult spelling/handwriting remains adult. Only observe handwriting when the child actually forms letters. Only record real interaction when a willing other person actually participates. Do not infer a listener reply from a paper figure, adult model or intended reader.

Today: Child creates a small information card with one chosen accurate listed fact, or a report about the invented bag if dates are not meaningful yet. Adult handles current checking; child chooses wording and rereads.

Observe: Notice source/year context, one accurate detail and one honest unknown. Rich dates/names are adult-read unless individually taught; no child internet search, account, address or location disclosure.

Next teaching: If date and lesson-grid numbers are mixed, draw two separate labelled rows: official terms / resource-bank order. Explain our resource 9–10 can bridge Term 1 and Term 2; reteach one source fact before adding detail.

Each ordinary day: select one locally eligible cumulative passage and two or three locally eligible words; no automatic new grapheme in this bank. Say a chosen word normally, then model its full ordered phonemes using the reviewed map. Digraph sh/ch/optional final ck represents one phoneme; s+t and n+d stay separate sounds. Let child blend the print, reread a phrase naturally, then give the meaning. If the first reading attempt is needed, capture it before modelling. For writing, say the separate chosen dictation word normally; learner segments, selects graphemes and writes/types/arranges them if suitable. Teacher can model and invite another attempt after capture; mark supplied graphemes separately. Handwriting: offer one locally taught unjoined letter from the word, modelling that school's letter formation and inviting an actual comfortable attempt; exact formation needs local judgement and is not provided by a system font. Familiar a/is require explicit actual teaching as described in the lexicon. Meaning context confirms reading; do not replace grapheme blending by picture guessing. Oral sound manipulation is separate from printed new-code teaching. If no passage fits, keep rich listening/composition and explicitly teach one earlier taught correspondence with a locally matched word; not-yet-offered print is not failed reading. Long vowels, two-syllable patterns, wider high-frequency words and morphemes need separate actual school teaching; this bank does not claim to complete them.
