Keep what actually happened

A plain staff note is enough; avoid child identifiers in a public resource. Record the selected source/component, actual date, response in its usual communication, child author/choice, adult physical operation/writing, neutral reading/access and any supplied content prompt. Preserve exact first response before feedback. Keep actually taught prerequisite/next teaching, interval/exposure/support when using a later source. Missing is unavailable, not a poor baseline or no learning.

• Actual child conduct requires the act to occur. A source narrative or adult move supports different evidence.
• Supplied record says a lookup happened, but no result was kept: action happened in that fiction; outcome unknown.
• Explicitly unmade/untried plan: preserve that status. Merely missing action/result does not prove no action.
• A recorded zero, not-entered field and stated unknown are different.
• Use actual question-specific next teaching; public forms are not secure/calibrated tests. Keep family history/First Nations breadth/full year open.
